Is there a natural supplements to help with ADHD?

Answer 1

ADD/ADHD is a complex disorder that is only partially understood.

magnesium and zinc taken in concert one with the other.

There is not much research on supplements for treating ADHD, primarily because it is a brain based disorder and much of it arises from structural abnormalities--not temporary fluctuations in diets. However, I have spoken with therapists who adjust sugar intake not because of speculated hyperactive effect but because of differences in adrenal gland function or effects from sugar for ADHD, although I don't have a source for that.

A natural treatment that I DO have many resources for is exercise--regular exercise is likely the best natural treatment alternative or supplement for people with ADHD, largely because of its effects on the brain. This will have much more lasting and dramatic effects than a food supplement.

Answer 2

ADHD can be treated naturally by monitoring diet and by adding certain nutritional supplements including minerals and vitamins. Commonly, those diagnosed with ADHD are deficient in Vitamin D, B and other minerals that are imperative to proper brain function.

Additionally, your spine uses fat to transmit signals from the brain, through the nerves, to the rest of your body. Trans fat is man-made and has a "T" shaped molecule whereas naturally occurring fat has a "C" shaped molecule. The consumption of trans fat stops the brain's ability to communicate with the rest of the body since it has the "wrong" type of molecule. By removing foods from your diet that contain Trans Fat, artificial coloring and preservatives your brain will be better able to communicate with your nervous system and will cause an improvement in brain function, hormonal balance and body function.
