The Ultimate ADHD Diet Cookbook; A Comprehensive Guide With Easy, Delectable And Nutritious ADHD Recipes To Help Your Kids Perform Well At School, Focus, And Overcome ADHD Forever

By Kyrie Matt

Diet hasn't been shown to cause attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children. Additionally, diet alone can't account for the symptoms of ADHD. However, there's no denying that diet plays a crucial role in physical and mental health, especially for growing children.Children with ADHD have extra challenges. Fueling them with good, nutritious food goes a long way toward helping them cope and stay healthy.Far too many children aren't getting the vitamins, minerals, and fiber they need. All children require a diet rich in: vegetables, fruits, whole grains, protein, healthy fats, calcium-rich foods, among others.Such a diet may or may not improve symptoms of ADHD in children, but it will provide them a foundation for good health.
