>kids with "ADHD" have higher rates of iron deficiency
>treat kids with iron supplements
>"ADHD" goes away

do you not see the problem? the author knows these kids have iron deficiencies and ADHD-like symptoms, but fails to realize that maybe they don't have ADHD and maybe they just have iron deficiencies
regardless, the author suggests ALL kids, with or without low iron levels, take iron tablets to reduce ADHD
do you guys see the issue? the kids in the study had iron deficiencies, not ADHD. the author just does not care, apparently, and wants kids with normal iron levels to take iron anyways
how do people like this get published?
is science just a joke?
