See in ADHD

I was fascinated with all that Dr. Robert Melillo brought to the table in this episode, discussing the role of diet and nutrition and how to create balance in the brains of those with ADHD and other neurobiological conditions.

Ultimately, he explains, in ADHD and other conditions like Autism, it's about networks in the brain that are very underdeveloped, under regulated, and under integrated with one another.

ROBERT'S AWESOME QUOTE:

“Whenever you have something where there’s multiple systems involved, the problem is the brain.”

Diet and Nutrition in ADHD

Dr. Melillo cites The American Academy of Pediatrics' 2012 findings, directly associating "leaky gut" and with Autism and related neurobiological conditions, like ADHD. He goes on to describe how diet and nutrition play an integral role in creating healthy brains and optimal brain functioning.

What fascinated me was the simple truth that it is indeed our brains that control all of body's systems, so naturally keeping the brain in balance also keeps these system in check.

Listen in as Dr. Melillo lays out the facts about maintaining a healthy diet for your child is key in helping to ensure they have a healthy and balanced life.

Presented for your listening pleasure: an episode of another podcast that I do twice a week called The ADD Couple, with my friend and fellow ADHD Coach, Brett Thornhill.

He and I discuss everything and I mean everything. (Mostly because he is verbose and I'm loquacious, LOL)  But we always cover the broad range of topics ever musing through the ADHD lens.

THE ADD'S AWESOME QUOTE:

“I've had such a busy day, you know, I've killed four aliens,

and I saved the world...”

Barriers to attention, like bad habits and boredom, are often experienced by individuals with ADHD and make great topics to bring to coaching. Listen in, as my colleague Brett Thornhill and I discuss how barriers like these look in everyday life.

In keeping with our commitment to deliver short and sweet episodes, we decided to break this topic into not just a two, but a three-part series. So enjoy this continuation where we discuss the role of bad habits and boredom in creating barriers to attention.

Sarah Castañeda is a journalist turned online marketer/blogger. But it wasn't until her diagnosis, in 2013, when her writing and passion became one. Now she writes to inform and create awareness of ADHD, more specifically, how ADHD is different for women.

I encourage you to check her blog, Adulting with ADHD

You can also reach out to her on Twitter @adultingadhd

SARAH'S AWESOME QUOTE:

“I call it surviving. You're surviving everyday... you're a survivor.”

ADHD is Different For Women

Here's an excerpt from Sarah's About page at adultingwithadhd.com.

"The topic of ADHD in women has fascinated me since 2013, when I was first diagnosed. I was seeing a psychiatrist about other mental health issues and she put it together. It has changed my life ever since and continues to impact me every day. It opened me to a new world in which I didn’t feel like a punchline, but instead somebody with a completely treatable real illness. This awareness combined with the proper treatment has enabled me to accomplish things that were never before possible.

ADHD is commonly considered a little boy’s disease because the symptoms look different in girls. Maybe you weren’t the class clown, nor did you talk too much in school. Maybe you fell through the cracks and are part of this fascinating lost generation of women who are coming into their own as awareness of ADHD women continues to rise. Maybe you’ve heard people say ADHD isn’t real or that you’ve been frivolously diagnosed. This blog aims to unpack all of this and more."
