Memorable Moments:

\u201dDiet is the foundation of any plan to reduce ADHD symptoms naturally. The food we consume plays a crucial role in how our bodies and brains function.\u201d

\u201dSupplements should never be considered the be-all and end-all for ADHD support. As I say often, you can\u2019t supplement your way out of a poor diet. BUT, in conjunction with dietary changes, supplements can be very beneficial.\u201d

\u201dResearch shows that taking probiotics can help support that gut-brain connection. But, the problem with a lot of probiotics is that the strains don\u2019t survive digestion.\u201d

\u201dFunctional lab tests can uncover underlying issues that might be contributing to ADHD symptoms, such as nutrient deficiencies, parasites, leaky gut, food sensitivities, mold, etc.\u201d

\u201dOur bodies are constantly exposed to toxins, and for children with ADHD, reducing this toxic burden is really important.\u201d

\u201dIt is impossible to get rid of all toxins from your life, so that\u2019s why it\u2019s important to optimize detoxification.\u201d

\u201dOnce you're in the thriving phase, it's important to reassess the supplements your child is taking.\xa0Maintenance supplements are about supporting ongoing health and preventing regression.\u201d
