S7 EP15: ADHD & Nutrition

ADHD can make all sorts of tasks that other people take for
granted more complex, so it’s no surprise that it can cause
challenges with eating as well. Today,  Kelsea interviews
Becca King, a registered dietician who has ADHD herself and who
focuses on the ins and outs of ADHD eating.


In today’s episode, you’ll learn more about the challenges and
hurdles of ADHD eating and how people can address these issues
when they have them. Listen in to learn more about eating for
stimulation, how nutrition is different for people with ADHD, and
eating intuitively when you don’t know what you’ll want to eat in
advance.
