GLP-1’s can be helpful in reducing insulin resistance, inflammation, and potentially improving mitochondrial health, but each person is different and this needs to be taken into consideration. Higher doses of GLP-1’s may not be best for everyone, which is why people should work with a provider they trust

Yesterday I presented at the CHADD ADHD conference and had such an amazing time. I’m passionate about teaching individuals about metabolic health in regard to ADHD and mental health. I am truly thankful for everyone that attended to learn about inflammation and ADHD because they will hopefully take the information and spread it as well!

Getting to Kansas City may have required us to break open our safe to access our passport, and we may have not really slept last night because of sensory issues…but we made it!! It’s always interesting to travel as a neurodivergent 😬😂

It’s almost time! In just a few days, I’ll be heading to Kansas City for the CHADD International ADHD Conference! 🎉🥳

I’m honored to be speaking on The Inflammation-ADHD Connection: A Holistic Approach to Managing Symptoms.

💡 Did you know inflammation can alter dopamine pathways, impacting focus and motivation? Addressing the body’s inflammatory response can support brain function and emotional regulation.

I can’t wait to connect with other passionate professionals and share what I’ve learned about bridging neuroscience and holistic health.

We often think of ADHD as just a brain-based condition, but what if part of the story lives in the body, too?

Research is showing that chronic inflammation can disrupt dopamine and serotonin signaling, which are the very systems that regulate focus, motivation, and emotional balance. And three key factors can quietly fuel that inflammation:

1. Environmental toxins — chemicals in plastics, pesticides, and air pollution can trigger immune activation and oxidative stress.
2. Unhealthy dietary patterns — ultra-processed foods, sugar, and nutrient-poor meals increase inflammatory markers like CRP and IL-6.
3. Chronic stress or early trauma — prolonged cortisol activation keeps the body in “fight-or-flight,” driving inflammation and nervous system dysregulation.

These aren’t just background influences. They’re drivers that make ADHD symptoms feel louder.

The good news is that reducing toxic exposures, nourishing your body with real food, and learning to regulate stress can calm inflammation and support the brain’s ability to focus, rest, and recharge.

🩵 Small shifts in how we eat, live, and manage stress can become powerful medicine for the ADHD brain.
