Ritalin (methylphenidate hydrochloride) is a stimulant drug in the same class with cocaine, amphetamine, and methamphetamine. All four are almost identical chemically.

Cocaine is the only one of the four that is a natural substance. The other three were concocted in laboratories.

A stimulant drug attacks two areas of the body--the heart--and the nervous system.

In order to market Ritalin they made up a phony new "disease," which they keep changing the name (and characteristics) of.

The 'disease' has NO medical characteristics. The child shifts his feet "excessively." They never define what is "excessive" shifting of feet.

The child answers the teacher's question before the teacher finishes asking it.

For these phony non medical characteristics the child is drugged with a powerful Schedule TWO drug.

Schedule two drugs are drugs approved for some medical use and have "high potential for abuse."

The Physician's Desk Reference lists numerous side effects of Ritalin on the heart and nervous system.
Stunted growth is another "side effect" of Ritalin.

"Suicide is the major complication" during withdrawal from Ritalin, says the Physician's Desk Reference.

NIH did a three year toxicology study on Ritalin and found it caused liver cancer in mice. The FDA and the medical establishment scurried to cover that up.

While a stimulant in adults, in the smaller body of a child it has opposite effect.

There has never been a single study proving that taking Ritalin improved math scores, reading or writing scores or any academic subject.

Almost all of the school shooters such as the Columbine shooters were on Ritalin and other psychiatric drugs.

The medical establishment usually pounces on any 'practicing medicine without a license'

but that is exactly what teachers, school councilors, principals do when they "diagnose" child after child as suffering from the newly invented phony "disease" and needing Ritalin.

This is a racket that has been amazing successful for the drug companies.

Now they are targeting the female population with gardasil.
