Did you know that 70%-90% of your neurotransmitters are produced in the gut? If your gut isn't healthy, you're not producing optimum levels of neurotransmitters that your brain needs to function. For ADHD, we need to get our bodies producing Dopamine to help with focus throughout the day. Protein is the building block for Dopamine. Instead of that bowl of cereal or that stack of pancakes, choose a protein rich breakfast. Meat, fish, eggs, cottage cheese, walnuts, are all great choices. They will keep you full longer, give you more energy and kickstart that Dopamine production to begin your day.

My daughter was first diagnosed with ADD over 15 years ago. Like many of you, I was shocked, confused and quite honestly, a bit scared. What exactly did it mean? Would she have a happy and fulfilling academic experience? Would she suffer in ways I could not comprehend or help her with? Do we medicate or choose not to? These and hundreds of other questions flooded my thoughts continuously throughout the waking hours. The overwhelm was real and at the time, life altering. Soon afterwards, my husband was diagnosed, and holy #*&@ #!! WE were in a pickle!!
Thrown into the fire with little to no knowledge of anything ADD/HD. Comorbid conditions? What the hell are those and how do we handle that as well? How? We pull up our big girl pants and fight like hell!
I have devoted the last 15 years of my life to the study of, the understanding of, the experience of, the challenges of, the observation of, the wisdom of...BUT most importantly, the GIFT of ADD/HD. First hand and in the trenches, fighting for you, I see you, I understand you, and I believe in you.
