The Ultimate Guide To Eliminating ADHD Symptoms
In this video, Dr. Lent discusses a comprehensive approach to managing ADHD symptoms, emphasizing that it's more than just a brain issue. Instead, he illustrates the complex interactions between multiple organs and systems responsible for ADHD manifestations.
An often overlooked aspect, the digestive system plays a key role in managing ADHD. According to Dr. Lent, approximately 90-95% of neurotransmitters are produced in the gut. This highlights the importance of maintaining gut flora balance, especially if antibiotics have disrupted this balance. Intestinal imbalances can be addressed with probiotics and prebiotics.
Another crucial factor is stomach acidity, which aids in breaking down food, absorbing nutrients, and supporting brain function. Supplements like Bane HCL can help bolster stomach acidity if needed, reducing issues like gassing and bloating that exacerbate ADHD symptoms.
Dr. Lent explains that hormone imbalances in the adrenal glands, such as cortisol, epinephrine, and norepinephrine, significantly influence energy, focus, and stress levels. While elevated cortisol might indicate increased anxiety, low levels could lead to fatigue and focus difficulties. Testing hormone levels is pivotal to developing targeted interventions.
Thyroid imbalances, even unnoticeable ones like low T3 and T4 levels, can lead to fatigue and brain fog. Cardiovascular health is equally critical, with inadequate blood flow to the brain contributing to memory and focus issues. Therefore, Dr. Lent emphasizes checking these systems when addressing ADHD.
Rather than relying solely on medications, Dr. Lent recommends a tailored approach aiming to address nutrient deficiencies and hormone imbalances. This involves investigating digestive capabilities, hormonal statuses, and organ function comprehensively. By concluding a thorough investigative process, personalized tests and lifestyle adaptations can effectively tackle ADHD symptoms.
- Reestablish gut flora with probiotics
- Monitor liver health and hormonal balances
- Check cardiovascular function for blood flow issues
"Covering just one area won't resolve ADHD. A comprehensive approach ensuring all systems are optimized is essential for any improvement."
