So jealous! I've gotten into gardening since lockdown. It's been brilliant for my mental health! Less good for my bank balance..

The only difference i feel is when eating carbs. If i eat to much carbs/sugar i just get tired, and when im sticking to Keto im awake all day no spikes at all. pasta, potato, flour may taste good but im having second thoughts whenever i eat it now. I do cheat now and then just to feel the difference :)

This video has really helped me out a lot. Thank you. As a women with ADHD I never really considered foods affecting me. I've also learned that ADHD can lead to obesity and I'm proof of that. Its going to be a slow process but I'm going to put effort into changing my habits around.

u got it

With low carb diet... i love adding broccoli carrots spinach and beans....which helped me a ton....these make me feel like i dont have add...spinach i only have with cottage cheese....rest of the veggies steam/sea salted... mct or avocado are best for fats...

Try grass fed ghee instead of coconut oil as well. Game changer

Just found your channel and I really love what I'm seeing so far. Your diet in this video is almost 100% exactly what my diet is! Really amazing to see... only thing is I make sure I get Kale in every single day. Either I add it to my salad, really finely chopped so I don't have to taste it so much... or I put it in my morning smoothie with 1 whole banana and lactose-free milk. The banana masks the taste of kale. I'm struggling with my ADHD really bad still but I've been off medication for about a year and a half and when I started this kind of diet, along with CBD twice a day, it did get better. I started eating this way because I'm diabetic. Obviously with my body not regulating sugar properly, it affects my brain. Anyway thanks for these really amazing videos! ♡

In typical ADHD fashion I immediately went and sorted my kitchen to put the carb-loaded junk food hidden away and went to the store to stock up on my favorite veg and proteins :) It’s been hard for me to even get in the kitchen to cook these days and most of what i can eat pre-packaged is carb-heavy. But somehow this video was exactly what I needed to lean back into the whole foods I enjoy! Thank you!!

You're garden is stunning! I am very impressed by your veggies also. Personally I got the blackest thumb in the world, I can't even keep my succulents alive.

Another great video, I really enjoyed seeing your opinions on food and the foods/herbs you’re growing. I tried the whole 30 (diet) before Christmas. It removes sugar, dairy, gluten, alcohol and you are only allowed to eat whole foods, nothing processed. I definitely feel better eating more whole foods and agree with you eating lower carb higher healthy fats and proteins works better for mind and body. x

When I’m eating unprocessed foods, keto, or low carb/paleo style, I do feel like my symptoms are much improved. My mood regulation is really the most noticeable thing. I used to take Attention Daily by Gaiakids as a supplement in college and just started using that again (it’s now called Gaiakids Focus) and that along with eating low carb/nutrient dense food seem to work the best for me. I fall off the wagon, but I always come back to it. Sleeping more and regularly taking K2/D3 and Magnesium Malate are extremely helpful, oh, and I try to take a vitamin e and hemp cbd pretty often for my mood.

I love your garden, thank you for the helpful videos! 🥦🥥🥑

Going gluten free helps !!!! try to Eat foods that can be found in nature... avoid processed food..if you want fried food...fry it in LARD... avoid vegetable oils...!!!!!!! Eat foods your great grandmother would recognize...i have ADHD...went along time... gluten free then at this last Thanksgiving ....I ate some food with flour in it...I had extreme anxiety for a couple a days...the food we eat effects our brains...no doubt...

Great. That’s so important. I am studying dietitian and quit sugar and white carbs and coffee. That’s insane how better I feel just quitting sugar and coffee. I am less tired and you can sleep better. I think it is very important what you give your body because your body response back. Good job. Keep going :)

Green keto works best for me. I've been on it for almost three years, and I concentrate and sleep better when I am on it. I've experimented with "cheat days" that involves carbs, and the refined carbs completely mess up my brain. The complex ones have the same effect but to a lesser extent, but the low carbs are where it is at for me. I've tried veganism and while it worked, I developed carb sensitivities so had to stop. Green keto is the diet that has worked fabulously well for me. I've been off Concerta since getting on it, and I am happier and feel like a million bucks when on keto. Thanks for a fabulous video!

Extraordinary garden you got there~

Great advice and I have naturally gravitated to a very similar diet as you described. I get most of my carbs from sweet potatoes, bananas, oats, and beans, protein from fish, poultry, beans, and nuts/seeds, and fat from coconut oil and olive oil. I also eat a lot of dark leafly greens and broccoli with most meals. Thanks for sharing your experience and also understanding that everyone is different. Thanks for all the wonderful content you create!

Your Goals man I wish to have my routine stabilized as much as yours.

Great video! I’m definitely going to try adding protein and healthy fats to my diet. Using grocery services (ie: instacart or Walmart pickup) has helped me cut down on impulse purchases. It’s a little pricey, but the fees are less than my impulse buys and I get healthier foods in the house.

I really need to change my lifestyle as when I was living at home family have never helped me, finally at 27 moved out and am fed up of never holding down jobs my life is absolutely ****ed all due to my diet never would of guessed that. Watching this video has really opened my eyes on what I need to do get myself to a nutritionist ASAP sort my life out once and for all thank you 😊

Whole foods have helped me feel better 200% but i still feel like focusing is still just as difficult

I grow my own vegetable too

Hi again Stuart, your last video was so good ! Wowed. All your videos are awesome- I guess you may not understand why? Well, you're very much like a light on people's pathway. I've struggled exactly the same as you, it's uncanny. My heart goes out to you simply out of respect that you are helping others, I could never achieve what you do. And lifestyle content is just so awesome. Finally- intermittent fasting, is so good- it really works. I fasted all yesterday, and still worked hard- cut up two dead trees and cleaned up all debris then the grass under the fallen trees, for an elderly widow neighbour. Just because. And when I got home I almost caved and cooked some eggs, but I chose not to- I waited until 7 pm. It creates calm in me, and clarity. I also love the effect of black coffee,- with adhd it is important to regulate how much coffee we have, it is good but there's a limit too. But yeah I need it. I love iced coffee- that is something I swear by. And with fasting- I love to eat fruit- if I'm at work, you will need some fruit. Mandarins for some reason are amazing while fasting. They stop the hunger, and correct blood sugar. I also like to buy naked ginger to munch on. Amazing to see you on our TV, take care buddy. I was real inspired by the weight training, it is awesome for us. Later bro

The omega 3 levels in eggs vary depending on what the chickens have been feeding on. So it's a good idea to buy organic eggs if you can as organic standards (in UK at least) as fairly strict which generally results in the hens having access to more nutritious and higher quality foods than the standard free range or barn hens which are farmed in the UK.

It's better idea to put some chia seeds in your oats, to pick some wallnuts for the ALA Omega-3, and grab some algie oil capsules for a full DHA and EPA daily dose. It's cheaper, efficient and you get to avoid the colesterol, the saturated fats and the animal exploitation which isn't needed to mediate your food intake for you to get the healthiest possible diet.

I cut sugar out a little over a month ago and I have noticed a huge difference in my ability to think and remember things.

I read that tyrosine and phenylalanine are helpful for inattentive ADHD. In combination with protein foods these supplements seem to help me get motivated/focus.

@User-pz4re

2 жыл бұрын

Yes, eating a lot of protein in general is already the same as supplementing tyrosine and phenylalanine. But make sure to eat beef or lamb instead of chicken and eggs, this is because chicken/turkey and eggs have a higher tryptophan to tyrosine ratio, meaning that they will make you feel less motivated and more sleepy after eating. Beef and lamb have a higher tyrosine to tryptophan ratio, so they will make you feel more motivated and focused after eating. That is a trick a lot of people don't know. People sometimes get misdiagnosed with adhd because of this, eating too much chicken and not enough beef can really make you foggy. It quickly creates an imbalance and can generate adhd-like symptoms in normal humans.

I found that when I went vegan my symptoms got so much better

Hey mate love the videos cute garden as well what camera do you fill me a Videos with

This is a diet very close to Keto, which is a much better option. We do not need fibre, and therefore, we do not need carbs. Worth researching.

I really appreciated this video. I appreciated that you weren’t telling ppl there is just one way to eat but what you have found optimal may also be optimal for them and to listen to their body. Also because these are my hyperfocus topics I often look at diet first. I have been obsessed with nutrition and cooking to heal myself from half a life after harm through addiction and poor nutrition choices. I have done many woe including vegetarian, vegan, pescatarian, low carb, keto, whole food and low glycemic index diets. I found vegan and vegetarian very beneficial for my initial healing, keto was excellent for weightloss and removing sugar addiction and cravings. I am currently taking a note from the data collected on Centenarians. I enjoy a traditional Japanese breakfast most days and eat traditional Greek and Mediterranean meals for dinner most days. This still involves lots beans and nuts but moderate grains. I like to focus on getting my carbs from things higher in fibre primarily vegetables. Lots of herbs, greens, mushrooms and root veggies with quality proteins of all kinds depending on the day of the week. We don’t eat a lot of red meat or chicken but rather eat them in moderation and eat more tofu, fish and lentils. I rarely eat anything with sweetener but when I do it’s a small amount. Or something that won’t spike my glucose like stevia or erythritol. Also I’m the last 2 years I notice gluten sensitivity had gone way up and every time I eat it it takes just a few days before I experience depression. I also wonder if being keto increased my sensitivity. Regardless I stay a way from store bought gluten free things and eat mostly naturally gluten free foods with the exception to the occasional gluten free bread slice. Recently it was recommended I take a number of supplements to help with the issues I was having. And so I have started those. We’ll see how that goes. I do feel more focused today than my average day but we’ll see. I have never been medicated so hence supplements.

Thank you for this it helped me stay focused on what I truly need ! I appreciate it

Thanks

I think your absolutely on point! I suspect I may have adhd because I experience this crash and fog after processed or sugary food. Omega has been part of my life since covid as I had to reassess my eating choices due to low energy from poor diet. I definitely ate more veg but added a lot more protein helped my brain more. Thx for reminding me about the coconut that was a game changer.

I love your videos. You so remind me of me. Keep them going.

i did well with a plant based diet but i do much better with animal based diet. keto was ok but the veggies cause me lots of bloating. meats and eggs have given me another level of wellness. i do dark chocolate for a treat. i also eat once a day. it helps a lot. i am not able to rest until everything is done and organized. thank you for sharing.

You had trouble digesting fiber and complex carbohidrates, and you took it out of your diet. Yeah, sounds like a healthy move.

Summary: Stop buying sugary, junk, processed foods. ADHD brain likes novelty so switch up your healthy foods so you don’t get bored.

You have excellent focal points. I really enjoy watching your videos Stuart. For me , it’s a bit of a new challenge to grocery shop . I turned vegetarian about two months ago and feel terrific. But grocery shopping can be a bit challenging. What do you pack for school so to eat ?

The Asians removed the bran from the rice for a reason. Just have organic white basmati rice. You’ll feel a great difference. The California ones. But if brown works for you ok, but many get sick from the anti nutrients in the bran as well as not soaking to break down the plant poisons.

i always drink tea to focus in doing my work. if i dont drink tea, not only i will have problem in focusing on something, i also cant communicate well. tea contain L theanine which helps you to calm down and focus. you should try it...

This is the conundrum for me.. I've tried to reduce meat consumption and experimented with different vegetarian / vegan options.. but ADHD throws a spanner in the works. I really function better on very low carb diet and it's damn near impossible to do without animal products 😐

That's not a bad thing!

At the moment not really following any kind of diet. But I did used to skip breakfast and just have a cup of coffee in the morning. I replaced this with oatmeal, blueberries and some protein powder and a glass of milk. The oatmeal gives energy for a long time, compared to cereal which gives of energy for a short time and makes you feel empty after. The blue berries are also good for your brain as well as the protein powder. The milk is a nice source of protein as well. I notice I am more focues and have more energy. ADHD is a constant battle since it impacts every aspect of your life, but this also means that we can use every aspect of our life to deal with ADHD, by getting enough sleep, eating Healthy, taking our meds, getting excersice, meditating etc. We are all gonna make it brahs

I don't know the science behind it as I'm not a medical professional, but if I were to guess, it would probably be because they get psychologically attached to functioning well that the meds provide. ADHD brains don't produce as much dopamine, you see.

I am such a carb lover! I find it really difficult to get enough protein each day and I just live on carbs and fat it seems. I am working on changing this but it's a challenge because A) I am trying to be in a small calorie deficit and fat has a lot of calories, and B) carbs fill me up for a bit longer. Although I am always hungry 2-3hours after eating though...

I finally feel normal on keto But it's the impulses and the binge eating that simultaneously prevent me from properly doing keto Help

I have ADHD and I'm addicted to sugar it is killing me.

@Sewage Water I'm noticing quite the opposite. I've not used animal products for a year and a half and I've never felt healthier. Making such a sacrifice has also given my self-esteem a massive boost. Giving up my car and taking to 40 mile-per-week (to and from work) cross-country mountain-biking has helped as well. ADHD has always made me feel a bit thick at times, despite being fairly academic, but my recent lifestyle changes, and the resulting pride I feel in them, have turned my personality around considerably.

How so? And how big of a difference?

I'm reading all of you saying keto diet is great for ADHD and also for PCOS, and I have both, so I will certainly try it, but then again, both me and my bf have a tendency for heart conditions in our families, so I'm worried about that part, as people say it's not recommended. But I'm left wondering if it's the keto diet itself that is bad for your heart, or the fact that people are still throwing bacon, fying stuff and using every kind of oils in there so that they lose weight without sacrificing so much... i mean, my diet is supposedly mediterranean (supposedly because i've been lazy cooking and going for fast foods), but here on the mediterranean we would never use bacon and fried stuff on a diet while trying to be healthy... So, anyone doing a helthy based keto diet is tracking their cholestrol and heart? any feedback on it?

​@@ADHDMastery Fats are more calorie dense than carbs, which are equally calorie dense as proteins, so you don't need to increase them by a lot to compensate for the avoided carbs. So if you where at 300g of carbs and reduced them 50% you avoided 150g which roughly means 600 kcal. A 100g of most nuts and seeds have 600 kcal, and half of them are unsaturated fats, and the other half are proteins. And you get to avoid artery clogging saturated fats, oxidative stress and animal exploitation. I'm not a physician but I undestand to which degree a high protein diet helped you if you have ADHD, and I can assure you that the breakfast you just showed did not work well for you at all, however wellness you'd percived.
