KNEW someone was going to say that, ok, forget about ADD, let's talk about dementia, alzheimers, autism...if Asians from India, Japan, and China are really genetically superior, then maybe their is an amino acid or stem cell or some herb that they take that triggers the chemical reaction in the brain or causes less brain cells to die out...., I know that Asia is still into yoga which really focuses on overall mental health and wellness...either way, we Americans are doing yoga more then ever, but our diets haven't changed..well, if it's genetic, maybe we can use the protein or whatever DNA strain to help facilitate the difference...that's the only problem with claiming genetic, you can end up being harvested (and you know we are an industrial nation, we harvest very well)!

Why is this, and please, no more PC race police, this is a fact and I love good people no matter who they are, so don't call me racist or race baiting, just want a simple understanding as to why...
If it is genetic, how do they handle ADD and autism..I would like to know this.
I know that with me, looking black, has made me have to prove myself to other blacks and EVERYBODY ELSE, ALWAYS, looking black Hispanic doesn't make it any better. If I talk about what I know, from what I have experienced thus far, it's been scorned or mocked by blacks and Hispanics (black Hispanics), even looked down on....they take the negative when talking about what a person knows. I have had little problems with whites when it has come to this (unless they are insecure, but RARELY ran into that, but when I did, it was equally with the same issues as some of the blacks who seem to culturally dislike "no it alls"😉. I have had little issues with Asians when it comes to what a person knows and enjoying discourse, unless they felt insecure, and again, rarely ran into those types.
What is it?
I worked as a private tutor before, and had a couple of Asian clients, they were raising their kids the same way we were raised, it was the positive aspect of learning and knowing and doing your best.
Its NOT genetic. I can assure you.
There are other factors, there's not so much of a brain stigma in Asian communities as there is in black and Latino.
I'd look at poverty levels as your main factor.

It would be interesting to find the statics of different ethnic groups that have ADD, autism and dementia. Can you research it and get back with us? I think that would be telling if it was genetics or diet compared to the American diet. Or if there is no difference at all.
An estimated 4.5 million people in the United States have Alzheimer's disease
http://www.alznc.org/dementiastats.php
I can't click on the link for dementia/Europe but will provide the link, I have done 4 years of research on herbs, and there are many papers written on herbs that help slow down dementia and Alzheimer.
I think the reason why they do well is b/c of walk-ins and the spiritual work that makes them so open to it, as most into Buddha wouldn't think walk-ins or soul transference is impossible, even native Americans believed in this ability. So, b/c I have suspected some of their energies to be of a different race then Asian, sometimes, and other times, their age is different then their look, it makes me wonder if they do a lot of soul switching/transference. If I know math very well, and do a walk-in, I can help that person who I am doing that for, if I soul switch, I share what I know with that person, and I think b/c of their spiritual openness b/c of their spiritual beliefs in soul race (such as in Hinduism) and the enlightenment idea of the mind, the idea of nirvana and reincarnation and (walk ins, soul transference/switch), they are able to benefit from what the other person knows. I think it's really a spiritual issue, not genetic. But if it is genetic, we have to study this matter and find the holy study grail.

speaking of food, Asians eat a high fatty acid diet, high in omega fatty acids GREAT FOR THE BRAIN. Most of the food combinations that they have is to counter balance bacteria in the foods and overall wellness for the energy of the body (and brain)... My love for herbs is what taught me more about India and China and Ski Lenka then any other historical research that I've done.. I have researched a lot on Japan simply b/c of their use of herbs, some on Mexico but not that much, as their medicinal foods aren't liberally publicized, same with South America, this is a big and huge battle these days when it comes to cultural agriculture and proprietary views on herbs, it's a big fit, and you know we went to a couple of wars (in European history) in order to have access to herbs... Matter of fact, did you know that potassium iodine is high in Japan, (I knew this before the movie Next), it's b/c that's the one compound that works against a nuke attack, so they say, that's what I read online when doing research on iodine (as it is a poison if overdosed).
Jews are careful on diet too, foods rich in fatty acids as well...so, maybe it's our diet that hurts us, and maybe when people are poor and eating $1 burgers for everyone in the family, it really doesn't feed the brain...
Japanese men don't have balding hair the same way that Westerners do, why is this? Some studies say that they eat less red meat. India Asians are closer to whites linguistically (and maybe even racially) then Chinese/Japanese Asian, even though they are darker in skin, and they don't bald as much...what is going on, maybe it's related to diet as they say. Maybe a lot of our issues is related to our food quality and selection.

Go to hell. Better yet, I hope the Ethnic confederacy kidnaps from your house at 3 A.M. in the morning, and throws your pasty ass into the dirtiest, most crime ridden ghetto they can find. 💃

If you can't offer intelligent and positive responses, then just know that it's not worth the time to even write the negative. No one is trying to hurt your feelings, if someone has, then I apologize. But that doesn't change the topic, as this was on the news, people are wondering about it, so why not bring it up as an intelligent discourse? Calling me names or censuring me isn't changing anything. It may make you feel better to belittle me b/c the topic hurts your ego, but remember, I don't look Asian, so it's not exactly a compliment to me, but I am not allowing myself to throw a fit, I would like to know intelligent responses. If you are negative, it shows you are jealous, if I made you jealous by mentioning this, my apologizes.

1) The news did not call Asians the ethnic elite.
2) This is not intelligent discourse. You are basically saying that how well a person can present themselves/speak/interact/(insert some action here) is totally based on their genetics. That thesis should be insulting to anyone who can read.

Yes it did (NOT THE EXACT QUOTES but basically -- The news did call Asians the ethnic elite --), why didn't you watch CNN when I mentioned it was on so that you could see what they were QUESTIONING, as I am QUESTIONING IT THE SAME WAY I HEARD IT ON THE NEWS, I TYPED IT AS I WAS LISTENING TO IT. GROW UP, not everyone who is better then you is your enemy! Not everyone who is better then I is my enemy. We all might be able to learn something IF WE CAN GET OVER THE NEGATIVE PEOPLE.

Define "better than." I'm not even certain what you mean. Please clarify so I do not assume

Better as a group, better as a race, better as a country, whatever is used to decide if one person is better because they belong to a more progressive group, I feel you are insecure about this. There are groups and people who are going to outdo others, that includes me and sometimes even *you*. The stats are in, and it shows that Asians do FAR BETTER then blacks, Hispanics (which I am Hispanic), and even whites, in Ivy League schools and in SAT and they do better when they finally do get work b/c they have the education, so they are doing better financially then other minorities, sorry, it's true, and I've heard it so many times b/4 and heard it again tonight.
We can discuss WHY and see what we all think is the real reason, or we can all attack me (God forbid you go out there and attack Asians), but the latter solves nothing. What are you doing to do, call up CNN and whine? Or talk about what are the conditions that make them better and work on it within your group of college buddies (regardless OF RACE). You pick the negative or positive. I pick the positive, we will see if the negativity continues about a topic that has every intent on an intelligent conversation, INTELLIGENCE MEANS INFORMATION, GAINING INFORMATION. giving and gaining information. you want to attack someone who is seeking this, it's a NO BRAINER why people are failing here in this country.

You are deluding yourself on different levels.
1) Human capacity is not determined by genetics. I explained this to you in a different topic but I am not about to go through all of that again.
An Asian in a ghetto would be just as likely to come out prosperous as any black, white, latin person and so on.
Read up on John Locke and ideas of the "blank slate" if you want to bother going into that any further.
The issues of minorites are different since they do not have the exact same obstacles. Stop trying to just find a simple answer.
2) You keep saying "better than." You seem to have a problem with the person you are. Everyone is ignorant to something.
3) Va Tech shooter was Asian. Should we generalize Asians from that now?
I am on the phone now. Can't finish thoughts. Maybe later?

i am familiar with the "blank slate" and the "noble savage" philosophy. and i am very comfortable with who i am, from my soul to my shell. not everyone can say that, and i won't feel ashamed to admit who i am. you seem to be still attacking ME, I am not the one who came up with the research, nor am I the one who has noticed it, and even blacks in congress have asked this question before and heard them on NPR radio 3 years ago (when I was a regular listener of NPR - National Public Radio). So, stop attacking ME as if this is ME against the world argument, or ME against other minorities argument, this has little to do with "me" except for the fact that I brought it to this message board, other then that, it's still STATISTICALLY in the favor of Asians to outdo other ethnic groups in this country, WHY? You have to prove why it's not genetic without bashing me, and prove why it's cultural without bashing me. Our educators are asking this, our news reporters are asking this, our gov't officials are asking this (some are black), so PLUEEES stop attacking moi.
