ADHD and the Gut Health Linkage


Listen Later

Do you or someone you love struggle with ADHD and don't know what could help with symptoms associated with it? Are you curious of what the root cause may be? We discuss some possible dietary links and how to alleviate symptoms in this most recent podcast. We also recognize the complexity of both the gut microbiome and ADHD, but we are here to discuss patterns found in recent research.

We take a short, but deep, dive into:

  • What may lead to higher incidences of ADHD?
  • What are the biomarkers that research is pointing to higher rates of ADHD?
  • What nutritional steps may help influence lower ADHD rates?
  • What supplementation may be helpful to reduce ADHD symptoms?
  • Will supplementation help increase weight gain?
  • Is supplementation safe?
