This book is divided into four sections.
The first section defines Attention Deficit Disorder, lists symptoms of ADD divided into hyperactivity, impulsivity and distractability groups. It also lists types of medications that are commonly used to treat ADD, and the affect of neurotransmitter imbalances on symptoms, and which foods can help change those imbalances.

The second section discusses the role of high quality nutrition to help improve thinking ability. The effect of blood sugar imbalance is explained and a comprehensive Glycemic Load Chart is included. The detrimental effect of food additives, especially food colorings and preservatives is explained, and the role of supplements is discussed. This section ends with an explanation of whole food nutrition and how important it is to get real food, not just in your daily diet, but also in supplementation form. It shows the first year results of the Children's Research Study that looks at the overall benefits of taking whole food nutritional products.

The third section talks about using homepathic remedies to reduce built-up stress in children and adults. A Homeopathic Remedy Profile Chart lists common mental and emotional symptoms and the correlating remedies. By completing this chart it will give you a better understanding of a homepathic remedy that fits your specific symptoms.

The fourth section discusses learning patterns and how you can find out which way you learn most easily. By looking at left-right brain development, and combining it with dominant senses you can discover if you are a visual, auditory, or kinesthetic learner. Also in this section are brain exercises that will show you how to evaluate and improve left-right brain communication.
