Omega-3
Omega-3 fatty acids are one of the most important nutrients for people with ADHD. They support brain health, help with focus, and may reduce inflammation and impulsivity. You’ve probably heard of them in the context of fish oil, but there are loads of easy, ADHD-friendly ways to get them into your diet without buying pills or expensive supplements.
Why is it good for ADHD?
Omega-3 fatty acids—especially DHA and EPA—are essential for brain health and function. For individuals with ADHD, they offer several benefits:
🧠 Supports Brain Function
Omega-3s aid in the production and function of neurotransmitters like dopamine and serotonin, which are vital for attention, mood regulation, and impulse control.
⚡ Enhances Focus and Reduces Symptoms
Studies have shown that omega-3 supplementation can lead to improvements in attention and reductions in hyperactivity and impulsivity in individuals with ADHD.
