Medical studies continue to draw links between nutrition and brain function. In many cases, missing nutrients are often the cause of attention disorders. The ADD/ADHD individual is usually missing key building blocks that are vital to making neurotransmitters, which are brain chemicals that regulate every aspect of our lives.

These missing building blocks, or precursors, include vitamins, minerals and amino acids. Omega-3 fatty acids like Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) also play an important role in helping communication pathways in the brain function optimally.

Nutrition and Brain Function

At Nature Optimized, we know from experience that food plays a role in ADD/ADHD and that we must closely examine a person’s diet to offer a well-rounded and holistic approach to reducing symptoms. Most ADD/ADHDers don’t need medication, especially as a first option for treatment. They need the nutrients, antioxidants, and enzymes necessary to support the brain.

Changing the diet to support body chemistry is the safest and most effective way to treat the underlying cause of ADD/ADHD, which, as mentioned above, is imbalanced production of brain chemicals like dopamine, norepinephrine, acetylcholine, GABA, and serotonin.
