Don’t write a 20-page article for ADHD people. Jesus fucking christ.
e8CArkcAuLEyeah, and the suggestion is to take supplements
FernThere is a lot more nuance in the article that is certainly worth looking at and considering and while I hear your annoyance with the long article I think going to the effort to write a long and informative article like this is commendable in some ways. I’ll grant it’s not a perfect article in many ways though. Nonetheless I wanted to share a bit more of what I learned from it for others.
More from the article
(Plus my takes after studying a bit of nutrition.)
- Reduce your sugar intake.
(Personally, I’d clarify that to processessed sugars, as fruit is quite good for you, not juice though, you need that fiber.)
- The doctor recommended a Multivitamin and an omega 3 pill. They said it’s better to get them through diet but supplements can be useful as a backup.

However, fish such as swordfish and shark are also a source of exposure to the heavy metal toxin, mercury. The fish oil brands examined in this manuscript have negligible amoun …
Jul (they/she)“AI” obviously wrote it. It reads like a teenager trying to fill a word quota for an essay assignment. Tons if repetition of useless information. And probably they get paid by ads and the longer the article is, the more ads load. I hate what “AI” and capitalism have done to science.
Maybe mods can ban the publisher?
Just a warning for those who dont know.
You can do permanent neurological damage by overdosing B6. It may sound hard to do but some energy drinks have several times your daily recommended intake and a lot of sports and fitness supplements put it in for no good reason. “Potentially hazardous” levels are defined as 1000% of your RDI over a prolonged period of time.
So if you have 2 white monsters, a multivitamin, a zinc/magnesium supplement and a rehydration tablet and you’re there.
