Is there an ADHD diet connection?
ADHD or Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder, is a growing concern for many of today’s youth.
It makes a tough life for the kids as well as their adults in that it is frustrating and creates a lack of self esteem.
But how is ADHD caused? What makes one person have it, but not another? In an early theory, brain damage was thought to be involved, but that has been discounted for the majority of sufferers.
Tobaccoo usage by the expecting mother causes higher risk though and family history has something to do with it.
But is there an ADHD diet connection as well? Some proponents believe that there is and strongly encourage a diet of fruits and vegetables with little to no processed foods.
