Research shows that a child's diet can have a significant impact on their symptoms of ADHD. A balanced diet high in nutrients and low in processed foods has been found to greatly improve focus, behavior, and mood in children with ADHD. Including plenty of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains and limiting sugary and highly processed snacks can make a big difference.

Autism and ADHD Coach Africa||I Help Parents of kids with ASD & ADHD Understand Their Child's Unique Needs & Strategies Thier Kids Need To Thrive || Lead Coach at Autismtherapy_withJane||Special Education Needs Advocate
𝐃𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐟𝐢𝐭𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐳𝐢𝐧𝐜 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐥𝐝𝐫𝐞𝐧 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐚𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐬𝐦? I remember a conversation with a concerned parent some days ago who was looking for ways to support her child's development. She had heard about zinc but wasn’t sure how it could help or where to find it beyond supplements. Zinc is a vital nutrient that supports brain function and the immune system, and it can play an important role in the development of children with autism. I am not one that advocates against supplements but encourages parents to do more with natural food and less supplements. But how can you ensure your child gets enough zinc without relying solely on supplements? 𝐇𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐳𝐢𝐧𝐜-𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐡 𝐟𝐨𝐨𝐝𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐢𝐥𝐲 𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐨 your child's 𝐝𝐢𝐞𝐭: 📍Meat and Poultry: Beef, chicken, and turkey are excellent sources of zinc. 📍Seafood: Oysters, crab, and lobster are high in zinc. 📍Dairy Products: Milk, cheese, and yogurt can provide a good amount of zinc (that's if you are not on a Casein free diet) 📍Nuts and Seeds: Pumpkin seeds, cashews, and almonds are great options. 📍Legumes: Chickpeas, lentils, and beans are also rich in zinc. And others.... Remember, nutrition plays a significant role in supporting your child’s development. Professionals in nutrition and health, what other tips do you have for increasing zinc intake naturally? I'd love to hear from you. #parentingtips #autismadhdcoach #coachingforparents #autism #adhd

I specialize in blending travel, motivational psychology, and energy meditation to help individuals unlock their potential.
How do I know what to eat and not eat with ADHD part 2 4. **Watch Caffeine Intake:** Monitor caffeine intake, as excessive caffeine can exacerbate symptoms of ADHD, such as restlessness and impulsivity. Opt for moderate amounts of caffeine from sources like tea or coffee if needed. 5. **Consider Food Sensitivities:** Pay attention to any food sensitivities or allergies that may exacerbate ADHD symptoms. Common culprits include gluten, dairy, and artificial additives. Experiment with eliminating or reducing these foods to see if there's an improvement in symptoms. 6. **Stay Hydrated:** Drink plenty of water throughout the day to stay hydrated. Dehydration can worsen symptoms of ADHD, so it's important to maintain adequate fluid intake. Remember, individual responses to food can vary, so it's essential to listen to your body and work with a healthcare professional or registered dietitian to develop a personalized nutrition plan tailored to your specific needs.

I research foods for ADHD every day: Save this post as your go-to for it. Take a peak at this (legit) list: 1/ high protein diet - this helps dopamine - this helps hormones - this helps motivation Foods: turkey, chickpeas, lentils, walnuts, pumpkin seeds, chicken, salmon, tuna, tofu. 2/ complex carbs - this helps focus - this helps energy - this helps memory Foods: quinoa, lentils, black beans, peas, blueberries, dates. 3/ healthy fats - this helps the brain - this helps hormones - this helps fuel the body Foods: avacados, walnuts, pecans, chia seeds, olive oil, fish oils, sardines. l'lI stop here. See the trend? Diet is clearly important. They’re building blocks for your brain and body. Do you have an ideal diet that works? ♻️Repost and share if you found this helpful.
