Description: Tired of ADHD strategies that don’t work? Here’s what actually does. FREE training here: https://programs.tracyotsuka.com/signup___When nutritionist Nicole DeMasi Malcher first came onto the podcast three years ago to talk about nutrition and ADHD (go back and listen to Episode #84 if you haven't yet!), she briefly mentioned the gut-brain connection and how what we eat can directly influence our central nervous system, and therefore our physical and mental health. At the time I asked Nicole if this connection was controversial, but she reassured me that the science is there to support it.Ever since, I've wanted to get her back on the show to dive deeper into this important topic, which we're finally doing this episode. Join us as Nicole gives a breakdown of what the gut actually is (aka the "second brain"), the research behind the brain-gut connection, how the gut microbiome impacts mood and ADHD symptoms, and some easy ways to improve your gut microbiome when you're already struggling with the executive functioning and sensory aspects of eating and meal-planning.______________Resources:Website: www.eatingwithadhd.comInstagram: @eatingwithadhdEpisode 84: ADHD and Nutrition with Nicole DeMasi Malcher - Tracy OtsukaSend a Message: Your Name | Email | Message If this podcast helps you understand your ADHD brain, start with my free training: Stop Trying to “Fix” Your ADHD.
