Episode 3356:
Dr. Neal breaks down what current research actually says about supplements for ADHD, cutting through the hype around popular options like L-theanine and ginseng. He highlights which nutrients may offer modest benefits, especially omega-3s, magnesium, and ashwagandha, while emphasizing that foundational habits like nutrition, sleep, and exercise still matter most. It’s a practical, evidence-based look at what’s worth considering and what’s likely a waste of money.
Quotes to ponder:
"Fish oil supplements may help improve concentration for those that have low levels of omega-3 fats in their diets in the first place."
"As far as any other supplements being advertised, including the expensive ones, we really don’t know at this time whether they may be helpful or, possibly, even harmful."
"L-theanine is a type of amino acid. Some studies have shown that it may help reduce anxiety and stress symptoms but doesn’t seem to help those with ADHD, specifically." Learn more about your ad choices. Visit <a href="https://megaphone.fm/adchoices">megaphone.fm/adchoices</a>
