Keonie Moore, naturopath and mother, shares her experience and wisdom on accurately recognising and treating Paediatric Autoimmune Neuropsychiatric Disorders Associated with Streptococcal infections (PANDAS).
Naturopath and Nutritionist Kate Holm joins us today to discuss treatment approaches to addressing neurobehavioural issues in children
According to the American Academy of Paediatrics it is estimated at least 1 in 100 US school children has PANS, with that number climbing every day. Many of these children are misdiagnosed, or are just simply missed all together.
Obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) tends to commence in late childhood to early adolescence and, whilst not yet proven, it is believed that genetic susceptibility may play a role in its development.
