Neuroimaging of Diet and Medication in the Treatment of ADHD
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Restricted Diet and Ruse Diet for Attention Deficit Disorder With Hyperactivity. Completed, enrolled 40 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) aged 9-12 years of age will be placed on a restriction diet for a 5 week period. Children will be randomized to either receive daily snacks that conform to the diet or will violate the diet (Ruse diet) in a double blind fashion. It is hypothesized that children who are consistently on the restricted diet (relative to those on the ruse diet) will show improvements in ADHD symptoms.
