I’ve heard mixed reviews regarding nutrition and ADHD. Is it really that beneficial?
Addressing dietary inadequacies can have profound effects on ADHD, as well as many other cognitive disorders. In fact, for some ADHD patients, nutritional supplementation and/or manipulation of diet proves sufficient enough to effectively manage their condition. As each year passes, there is growing evidence highlighting the effectiveness of nutrition and nutritional supplementation in ADHD patients. A multitude of studies show marked improvement in individuals increasing protein intakes and supplementing with essential fatty acids (EFAs). Interestingly, deficiencies of essential fats have been shown to be a risk factor for ADD or ADHD onset. Proteins and EFAs remain critical nutrients, responsible for proper growth, mental function, and immune system and brain development.
