Keto Diet for ADHD??

I have inattentive ADHD, and have noticed many positive benefits of practicing the Keto diet for the last 1.5yrs (with supplements and stimulant medication included). After discovering that there are no studies done on ADHD and the benefits of a Keto diet, I wanted to share some info on the diet, some of my story, and some really helpful remedies I picked up along the way. Research has thus far demonstrated that the Keto diet helps eliminate ADHD symptoms in children with epilepsy, but no study has been done on participants with ADHD.

If this is of any interest to you, I uploaded a video on my youtube channel going further into discussion. If you click my pic, it will take you to my profile, in which in my bio section, you'll see a link to the video (the website will not let me link it in the post).

I just strarted reading a book called How To Be Well The 6Keys To A Happy and Healthy Life. Right now I’m on the eating chapter and they are encouraging a diet like the keto diet. They talk about sugar and why it’s bad for you. I’m 39 now and I used to be skinny until I hit my 30s and I believe I ate horrible I still do and trying to change that 🤞🙃
