Episode 96 - Good Science or Good Marketing?

GOOD SCIENCE OR GOOD MARKETING is my reading and interpretation of Jonathan Leo's 2000 SKEPTIC magazine article entitled 'Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder - Good Science or Good Marketing.' In this article Leo asks the most important questions that are simply not to be ignored if we're really after the discovery of the true causes and the most effective treatments for ADHD. There simply aren't enough valid and applicable studies to prove the points that the main stream experts are making around ADHD. Unfortunately, those incomplete and one-sided narratives have most parents quickly turn to stimulant medications as the quick fix solution for their children. Listen in and hear for yourself how Big Pharma's ADHD marketing departments are clearly putting the [marketing] cart before the [science] horse.
