I just found out my grandson who we are raising has ADHD. This is all new to me. I love the coments that have been shared and look forward to more to help me change our life style and help him. I am looking for types of foods that will be beneficial to him and meals that I can prepare. Him and his little sister love yogart and have requested breakfast drinks in the morning. This is a start. I have always fed them breakfast in the morning before school, but when they don’t eat it I can offer then a breakfast drink.
Thank you so much for you members page

I am confused on how to hear the response to the questions that are asked…
are the responses just between parents or are U responding?

I buy my kids Yoplait kids yogurt its got Omega-3 and DHA and is low in sugar. It contains 16mg of DHA per serving which is 10% of the daily value. Its also got 5g of Protein and Vitamins A, C, D…they don’t like to take it to school (embarassed) because its DORA yogurt, but its good for them. They eat it at home for an afterschool snack.

My 8 year old son has been drinking the Carnation chocolate breakfast drink and loves it. I see a difference as well. I have even started using the Organic milk with added Omega 3 to mix it with and because the milk is expensive for cereal we use regular whole milk. Hope this helps:)

Have you thought about a morning chocolate drink (nutritious) that has protein? Wal-Mart sells low GI drinks that most kids will love. I think they are made by EAS. Even a slim fast has “some” protein in it. This could work for you!

I need help with 2 things:
1) supplements- my 12 year old fights me all the way about vitamins. Even when I get chewable ones, I’ll find them in his pockets and he’ll say he forgot. He complains every time I get them out.
2) Breakfast- I understand the importance of a good breakfast. I have to wake my son at 5:30 in order ot leave by 6:00. He stays at a daycare until school at 9:00 ish. I know- it’s a terrible situation but I tell you that because our mornings are often extremely rushed. We both have issues with low blood sugar. What can we prepare ahead of time- or buy to eat to get off to a sound start in the mornings??? Cooking is out of the question-
also what can I pack for him to eat later?
