Hello ADHD babes! 🥳✨

This week on Your ADHD Besties:

Grace had a truly chaotic week, managing to both ponk her car and her brows (in unrelated news, Tara was Grace's brow technician but is she getting fired?). 

Important babes!

DIVERGENT DILEMMA:

Registered Dietitian Tara helps us to answer the question that everyone wants an answer to: ADHD supplements: Are they worth it?

  • Do vitamins, minerals, and herbal remedies actually help with ADHD symptoms like focus, attention, and mood regulation?
  • Should you prioritize natural ADHD treatments or stick with prescription ADHD medication like Adderall or Ritalin?
  • We deep dive omega 3 fatty acids and break down the science behind their use in ADHD.
  • Are ADHD-specific supplements a scam? Find out what might be clever marketing and what could genuinely support brain health and executive function.
  • Research Tara cites: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11441986/

If you’ve ever Googled "natural ADHD treatments that work" or wondered about balancing medication with a holistic approach, this episode is a must-listen.

IREGGY SEGGY:

In our Irregular Segment this week we face the greatest fears of an ADHD woman with severe RSD when Grace is exposed to Rhonda the Receptionist and dangerous levels of Greensleeves hold music.

RECS:

  • Grace is NOT recommending: Maybelline Lifter Plump 🌶️🥵
  • Tara is recommending this Vegetarian Nut Loaf from The Kitchn

Until next Thursday, babes! You KNOW what you can’t do (RSD 🥲).


Love Grace and Tara xxx
