Episode Description

Lifestyle changes — improving nutrition and exercise, taking select supplements, and reliably using prescribed medication — may help to effectively manage ADHD symptoms in children, according to research. The impact of these changes is often underestimated and undervalued, but evidence shows that they can have a positive effect on a child’s academic performance, behavior, and sleep. In this webinar, caregivers will learn about the outcomes they might expect when they build the following lifestyle changes into a child’s day:

  • Time in nature
  • Unstructured play
  • Healthy exercise and nutrition
  • Stress management
  • Behavioral management
  • Adequate Sleep
  • Screen time management
