Fuel Your Focus: Nutrition’s Role in Managing ADHD
In this episode of ADHD Goals, host Laurence Pratt delves into the critical impact of nutrition on managing ADHD symptoms. Highlighting research on the subject, Lawrence emphasises the importance of essential nutrients like iron, zinc, and omega-3 fatty acids, advocating for a diet rich in whole foods to enhance brain function and reduce symptoms. The discussion covers the negative effects of sugar and caffeine on ADHD, the benefits of supplementing wisely, and the necessity of staying hydrated and maintaining regular meals for stabilising blood sugar levels.
