Increasing awareness of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) has led to consistent rises in the number of children both being diagnosed and being treated.

Children with ADHD may find it hard to concentrate and may become hyperactive, to the point where the condition can interfere with their schooling, friendships, or family life.

As GPs we will be familiar with the inattentive symptoms, such as being easily distracted and having difficulty with focusing, as well as the hyperactive-impulsive symptoms, such as fidgeting and squirming, but there are also significant nutritional challenges. What are they, let’s find out?
