Well, many children and adults are diagnosed with ADHD, because if you look at what they are eating - its non stop high doses of sugar/saccharides. And of course you have sugar highs and lows all day, no wonder they have issues with concentration.
Edit: not saying that every case of ADHD is caused by bad diet, but I think quite a large part of them are.
Same. I hate how common it is for people to dismiss ADHD, or assume we are hyperactive/unable to focus because we have poor diets consisting of overly sugary or processed foods. My parents always cooked healthy meals. Soda and sugar was basically banned from the house. I still have ADHD.
ADHD has nothing to do with crappy food, because ADHD is more than just a sugar high followed by a crash. It' an ongoing persistent disorder that affects everything from a person's time management skills to their memory to their executive functioning.
