Has your ADHD recently gotten worse? Not ADHD as a kid, but suddenly have problems with attention and forgetfulness? Mold may be the cause.
For the last few weeks, we've been in an ADHD series where I've been breaking down the connection between your BODY and your ADHD.
I've talked about 5 ways to make your ADHD easier to manage by healing your gut, if intermittent fasting is a hack for ADHDers who forgets to eat meals, and 2 genes to support if you have ADHD (check out gene #1 here and gene #2 here).
On today's episode, I'm wrapping up our ADHD series with talking about a very serious and very common irritant I'm seeing taking my client's ADHD to whole new levels of intensity.
This episode could technically fit into the episode on 5 ways to make your ADHD easier to manage by healing your gut, because one of those five things is dealing with hidden pathogens.
But this topic is so common, complex, and honestly undiscussed, that I decided to give the conversation on ADHD and mold it's own episode.
If you have ADHD, think you have ADHD, or struggle with forgetfulness, brain fog, inattention, irritability, or mood swings, then this episode is for you.

Last week, I did an episode on ADHD and the MAOA gene mutation. When I released the episode, I told ya'll that this was THE gene mutation that was connected to ADHD and it was going to be a great episode.
Well...it was a great episode! But, as I was collecting the data for the episode, I realized that I had forgotten about another gene mutation that ALSO highly indicated ADHD.
Drumroll please 🥁
It is...the COMT gene mutation!
On today's episode, I'm sharing all about the COMT gene mutation, what it's role is in the body, signs and symptoms you might have this gene mutation, and how you can support it naturally.
I hope this episode opens your eyes, and gives you a new way to see your ADHD and how you can support yourself.
Cheers!

Is it so bad to not eat or forget a meal?Is intermittent fasting a good or bad idea if you're ADHD? Dr. Ben Lynch's example for how to use intermittent fasting if you're ADHDTips to foods to keep around that are healthy and you can eat at any moment, anywhere - if you need some food ASAP

Today, we are continuing on with our ADHD series here on the Better Belly Podcast.
Today, I'm going to be talking about something I just do NOT hear people talk about in the ADHD community, and that is the MAOA gene mutation.
These gene mutation is HUGELY implicated in ADHD.
You do not automatically have the MAOA gene mutation if you have ADHD, but if you do have this gene mutation, you can be set up for symptoms like poor focus, carb cravings, difficulty staying asleep, depression, chocolate cravings, have a tremendous amount of energy one moment then none the next, have great focus one moment then none the next, have difficulty controlling your temper, and generally crave things that will give you a dopamine hit.
If you are looking for ways to support your ADHD than can literally make it EASIER to manage, without needing more systems to rule your life - then this episode is for you.

Learn how these 5 gut health strategies can make managing your ADHD easier WITHOUT more medication or mental gymnastics!
----
When I first started working with clients in their gut health in 2018, I had NO awareness of ADHD or the connection between ADHD and the gut.
However, after just a couple years of working with clients, I realized that I consistently was getting remarks from clients saying, "My ADHD is getting better!", "I can focus better!" or "Can this work possibly help ADHD? I feel like mine is better!"
Just a few weeks ago, a client said to me: "I thought that all my distraction, irritability, and difficulty focusing might be ADHD and being a mom, but so much of my brain fog has lifted since I started these protocols!"
My response has always been, "Great!"
But they wanted to know...WHY?
On today's episode, I'm diving into 5 ways your gut impacts your brain, and how you can use these 5 gut health strategies to make managing your ADHD easier.
Whether you feel like you do or don't have gut health problems, if you know you have or THINK you have ADHD, this episode is for you!
