ADHD And Genetic Abnormality

Recent study has come to the conclusion that the majority of children who are suffering from attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) carry a genetic abnormality that may predispose them to the condition.

Experts believe that ADHD and autism may share a biological basis because they have overlapping symptoms. Talking about ADHD, it is a common condition impacting more than five percent of children in the US. The main reason responsible for this situation is high-sugar diets and bad parenting.

My gut feeling is that more research is required to get a comprehensive overview of the linkage between this genetic abnormality and the neurological upshot.
