Diet For ADHD - ADHD and Diet
What is the best diet For ADHD? ADHD and Diet have a direct relation to each other.
Since you are searching for a diet, you are on your way to a journey of finding wholeness.
There are people who say that diet wont change ADHD symptoms because ADHD is not caused by food or ingredients.
I personally know that this is not 100% true. I have ADHD and I know that when I eat certain things, I lose concentration, focus, and can even become hyperactive.
I also know that not receiving the minerals and vitamins I need can make the same symptoms happen.
Let me give you an example. Eggs are very healthy and good for you. The best way to eat them is raw.
One day, I decided to eat 3 raw eggs every morning.
I then started having short term memory loss, concentration and focus loss, and some mood swings increase.
I stopped eating them, and all the symptoms were gone the next day. So, something that is good for one, doesn't mean it is so good for another.
Now, if I would have went to my doctor, he would have said, you have ADHD, so why not take medication for it?
Now I hope you see how the problem works.
This only explains the aspect of a food that can be an irritant to the body. The other side is taking a good supplement to make sure the body gets the minerals and vitamins that are needed.
I can only recommend the liquid vitamin and mineral supplement that I use. It is the only one that I have tried that made a difference day 1 when I took it, and when my roomate took it.
