@@tylerrr1391 My standard schtick... I used to work at the Copella Juice Factory in Boxford, Suffolk. About 80 - 90 % of my food intake was apples.

Fish oil saved my life. I supplement with salmon. Took about six months for the full effects of the fish oil to kick in so hang in there. Really helped with anger anxiety and mood liability, also great for my skin!
@@tailsprowerfan2729 I think leafy greens make a difference. Another one that helps me and a friend is molluscs such as mussels, clams, squid, octopus, or more conveniently cod liver oil. Effect is identical: much greater optimism and drive. This effect is different to what fish oil does.Bown lentils with the skin on are great for me too. particularily punctuality and ability to stay on task.

Similar effects to the foods I spoke about but more convenient. Eating sausages and lentils everyday and a portion of squid and salmon expensive, boring and hard to sustain in the long run.
I did the paleo diet for a few months (prior to finding out I have ADHD). Looking back on it after watching this video, I was heavily consuming things like nuts, berries, fish, and avacados. I also found it to be super similar to Keto (aside from being able to have a decent amount of natural carbs like those found in berries). But yes, looking back on that now - I remember feeling like I had a lot more energy. I lost a lot of weight, and I remember being more productive than usual, and much happier on a more consistent basis. It felt relatively sustainable as well - aside from cravings haha. I may have to give it a go again, now that I know what I'm looking for. Thanks for the awesome videos! Been learning a lot about myself from watching.
As a functional nutritionist -check the ingredient lables to find nuts not "roasted" in oils.These oils can become rancid in processing and cause more inflammation. (Same with potato chips and MANY other processed foods...) Go for raw nuts if possible or find salted nuts without added oils!
Finding out my daughter might have adhd, I went down the rabbit hole. And come to find out that apples avocados and blueberries along with other berries are high in salicylates. And salicylates can increase symptoms! those are her favorite foods😢
Sorry it's not relevant, but would you consider making a video on starting/maintaining a youtube channel with ADHD? I made one last year... so far I have 200 ideas in my notebook, 10 scripts written, 4 videos to edit (recorded 6 months ago), and only about 5 videos actually uploaded on my channel from a year ago! It's the classic case of having so many ideas but not being able to start or stay consistent. Your channel's doing so well! It'd be super helpful to hear :)
Yeah I could totally do that! Wow that's a lot of material you have!! It's a huge struggle for me too so I can put a video together on how I managed to maintain it, it's still on the edge of coming apart all the time though 😂
I’ve struggled with ADD for my entire life I’m now 18 years old and starting college. During the summer I experienced with animal-based diet and I’ve basically stopped staying strict to the diet about a month ago and now I basically don’t follow it at all and I noticed at the start of my school year I was on top of all of my assignments and reading and writing was particularly easier than it has been for me in the past. But now that I stopped the diet I have all the hardships of ADD back and I’m going to restart the diet so I can focus again
My son is 13 yrs old now,we found out that he has ADHD when he was 7 yrs old.His behaviour when he was 8,10,is not concentrating his study ,he even hit himself,he is now 13 yrs old his behaviour was totally change,become so quite and if we ask something,is hard for him to answer directly,is very emotional for me as a mother,we love him so much! ADHD have this kind of ability and questions for that is very far away from our imagination😀😀he is very smart,but there are times he is silent,and he doesn't want to talk,that makes me worry, Please reply my messege,and l am very grateful,watching your advices and methods how to handle ADHD child. THANK YOU VER MUCH!🙏🙏 for helping people have ADHD.O
Thanks for this.. it's really helpful for those of us wanting to truly improve our overall lives. I knew most of this info, but some of it I never really thought of yet
Do have a video on recipes for these foods? Or could you make one? Also maybe how to stick to a diet that is good for you instead of slipping back to the sugary processed foods that are quick and easy for us who don’t always have the motivation to get up and cook or don’t remember to cook until we are already hungry.
I already had fish and avocado in my diet and I just added nuts, I wished I liked berries but sadly I don't, everytime I eat something that I think needs a bit of spice I add chilly flakes, which I've always added and also tumeric.
Keep up the great videos man! I started Keto after I saw the diet video you made. Best lifestyle change I could have done. I haven’t been diagnosed with adhd yet but I’m going to go soon to see if I actually have it. I will say though, ever since I started Keto I have been a lot more energized and my focus has gone up some. Though still not perfect, I still procrastinate a lot and forget a lot of things but it helped a ton. Plus I lost 30 pounds in a couple months lol.
Nice!!! That's awesome!! Congrats on the weight loss friend :) I'm glad it helped you out I love the keto diet! It's all foods I enjoy eating and its so Good for brain function and health!
Two 1200 mags fish oil “no fish burps” capsules every morning. A must. FUN FACT: Acidic fruits that contain vitamin C can mess with some ADHD meds. There’s stuff on the internet about it. Interesting.
What is great for our brain and in fact the first ingredient it needs, it’s a Vitamin B1, as well as vitamin D3 & food rich with zink! Keep in mind that there is food we may eat that kills these vitamin & minerals inside our bodies. This is something worth of researching. In addition, according to medical research, our brains functions benefit from hunger & limiting of snacks during the day. Doctors suggest intermittent fasting or eating one to two times a day!
From what I understand, you need to add black pepper to cumin to activate the anti inflammatory properties / health benefits.. someone correct me if I'm wrong...
I’m think I might have ADHD because I’m distracted and constantly trying to be stupid to fix my boredom. My psychologist thinks its anxiety but when I’m distracted it’s not anxious thoughts it’s random stuff. I also have ok grades but can you still not be totally failing or be a bright student and have ADHD?
Yezzir. You can be smart and/or intelligent with any learning disability. It just without the proper help/guidance you need you seem to look goofy and/or goof up a lot more. Especially, when you hit prime adult hood.
Working on two master degrees at once while working full time...but struggling to write my papers/homework on time..ADD does NOT make anyone “dumb”, it’s a disorder. It doesn’t mean anyone is can’t make the grade, or isn’t smart enough, rather it is a brain disorder that makes it hard to focus when it is not engaged enough. And while I wasn’t on honor roll as a kid, I never failed a subject. (Until my first semester in college).
I’ve been snacking a lot throughout the day! I love the mini slim Jim’s protein lol and pistachios I am doing better and lost 15 pounds since January! I was overweight omg it was awful I thought I was normal but now I am normal range well that’s what my doctor said. Now I have to shove food down my throat and snack to try maintain my normal weight and not lose to much. It’s hard bc food taste like nothing to me on Adderall
Question: would you explain the dietary instructions please.? The food before taking our prescription and food intake during the day? The most common one is not to drink orange juice for example (though I love it and tend to drink it later at night). But what else ? Thank you
Try not to drink too much caffeine, it can overstimulate you, I personally do the keto diet so I eat healthy fats and protein, the split is actually 75% fat 15% protein and 10% carbs, I use a tracker app to see where I'm at, although it's more a case of just eating the right food, eating a breakfast, not eating junk food or sugars, and not eating too late, I normally try to stop eating at 8 and go to bed around 11pm. There are tons of videos of keto diet online but like I said just eating healthier :) I suppose orange juice has a lot of sugar in it that's why it's bad, having it late at night could stop you sleeping well
Damn of course the first one is fish i absolutely hate 😂😂 but I take fish oil everyday ^^ i physically cant chew nuts so I mix that in veggie smoothies 😂
Try salmon burgers in the freezer isle I don’t like salmon on it’s own but the burgers are actually good I put avocado tomatillo salsa on mine from costco
hey your wife called! she said "yeah you better put that Salmon back in the freezer!" lmao!all do seriousness, this makes me want to eat salmon now and more blue berries!AS always...very informative! eventually though there will be a time when there are no more things to talk about ADHD and how to properly handle it. wat will you do then?
Haha well I don't think I will run out of things 😎 but if I do I will cross that bridge when I come to it ;) hopefully by that point people will be more invested in my personality than the content so I can branch it to other things too
Do you eat turmeric as a supplement or do you have meals made with it? I’m newly diagnosed and they started me on Ritalin and I despise it...trying to find better things to help, while I wait for my next appointment and a change in medication :)
I have used it as an ingredient in spices for meals, you can probably get a suppliment though that would be a good idea! Dang I'm sorry you are having issues with the Ritalin :( can your doctor change your meds to something different?
Me with ADHD my problem is that the only dr I can see that can prescribe my medication is only available to be seen via tele-med appointments...so it makes it really difficult to contact him 🤦🏻♀️
-Salmon
-avocado
-nuts (vitamin E)
-blueberries (brain function protect vs Alzheimer’s)
- turmeric ingredient curcumin
I heard apples help too.

Why with the background music though?
Heard that dopamine and adhd we dont have that issue at all. what you said is not right but what do i do. Watch a video ans she said that same saying
I can't watching this till the end 😢
how are berries "keto friendly"?
They are the lowest fruit by carbs, and are good for your brain :)
Yes berries are keto friendly just don't eat a lot of it. A few berries won't kick you out of ketosis.
What if you have autism and are developed delayed too?
