• What animal adjusting is and how it differs from human adjusting.
• What types of animal adjusting techniques are available and what other kinds of therapy can be used on pets.

This topic is personal for Dr. Nedd.  Had he not grown up when he did, he would likely have been labeled as having either ADD or ADHD and forced to take extremely addictive drugs.  This is a very touchy subject because people think if you say anything against these labels you mean that what these children are manifesting doesn’t really exist.  That’s wrong.  Listen in to understand better.  Today, Dr. Nedd will discuss:

• What ADD and ADHD stand for and how they are ‘diagnosed’.
• Dr. Nedd’s personal story of his ‘hyperactive’ behavior in school and the cause of it.
• What the most commonly used drugs are supposed to do and the dangerous problems they can cause.
• How can a parent find out what is causing their child to act the way they do when labeled ADHD.
• What are some safer, non-drug methods to control or correct ADHD symptoms.

It seems strange that someone could die within minutes of eating peanuts, or shellfish, or after getting stung by a bee.  That extreme allergic reaction starts with anaphylaxis and goes down hill rapidly into anaphylactic shock.  It’s important to know what it is, how to recognize it and what to do when it happens.  Today, Dr. Nedd will discuss:

• What are the most common things that people react to and which lead to anaphylactic shock.
• What are the signs and symptoms you should be very aware of that might indicate the start of anaphylactic shock.
• Why the epinephrine in EpiPens can help save someone’s life but don’t completely stop the anaphylactic shock by itself.
• What you can do if you suspect someone is having an anaphylaxis reaction.
