Question:
Is there such a diet and vitamin supplements that would be able to treat my 9 yr. old son for ADHD instead of using medication.  Any information or direction would be most appreciated.

Thanking you in advance for your help.


Dr. Heller's Answer:
There’s no doubt a diet high in fruits and vegetables makes a difference for most individuals with ADHD.  There’s some suggestive evidence that eating partially hydrogenated oils ("trans fats") can cause inattention that mimics or worsens both types of ADHD.


Here is an article from 1998:

Effect of nutritional supplements on ADHD Integr Physiol Behav Sci 1998 Jan-Mar;33(1):49-60

Saccharides used by the body in glycoconjugate synthesis may help severity of ADHD and associated Oppositional Defiant Disorder and Conduct Disorder symptoms.  They were from fruits and vegetables.
