Adults with ADHD have long reported a connection between the foods they eat and the symptoms they experience. Now, science is beginning to confirm that diet and nutrition impact cognition, attention, sleep, and mood.
Research shows that protein promotes alertness in the brain. Carbohydrates do the opposite. And artificial colors and flavors are even worse. Additional studies show that people who eat “clean” or “whole” diets high in vegetables, fruits, unprocessed grains, and lean meats are more likely to experience better emotional and brain health and are 25% to 35% less likely to experience mood disorders. 1
In essence, the better you want your brain to perform, the more brain food, such as unprocessed foods, proteins, vegetables, and fruits) you should eat.
