🫡 This is for the ADHD girls, be patient, all is coming!

I hear so much negativity & whilst I have lived experience of the challenges please reassure yourselves that supported ADHD girls are boundless.

We overcome anxiety by understanding ourselves better.

A big thank you to @AmbersCoaching for a fascinating talk to parents this morning about ‘Feeding Young Minds’.

It was wonderful to welcome you to Thorngrove 💚💙

Oh dear. I’ve upset a lot of people. I didn’t mean to. I’m not saying ADHD doesn’t exist, I’m saying it shouldn’t be an identity and it shouldn’t be self-diagnosed. We are more than our diagnoses - that’s what I’m trying to say.

Huge thanks to everyone who attended the The Annual ANP Naturopathic Summit on
Functional Neurology, Cognition and Brain Health today - it was wonderful to bring fellow practitioners, clients and suppliers all together.

The world of nutrition is full of amazing people, all with one mission……to keep people happy, healthy and well! @ANPractitioners

@MCol_Drama It was utterly brilliant last night!! We loved it.

⭐️Podcast: Nutrition for ADHD⭐️
I was interviewed all about nutrition for the neurodivergent brain by my favourite child psychologist Dr Maryhan Baker

This was on her incredibly popular & brilliant podcast “How Not To Screw Up Your Kids”. #ADHD

🍎🍂 Autumn Bounty 🍂🍎 it's been an amazing season for apples, so keep up the chopping, stewing & freezing to take you all the way through Winter!

🍎 These are little apples so I kept the skins on for extra fibre. 🍂

We need a BIG mindset change in #schools to oppositional behaviour & #exclusion

Dysregulation can driven by simple things like missing out on a healthy breakfast or big stuff such as unmet SEN/neuro diverse needs or autoimmune neuro inflammation

Self harm is much higher in kids with #ADHD & #autism and those who have a higher rate of school absence - it’s why NatureDoc clinic focuses on nourishing food for the brain in neurodiversity as they need every little bit of help for their #mentalhealth

It was lovely having ex-pupil William and his friend Freddie visit on Friday to work with our Y6-7 Drama Ambassadors. The two Drama Scholars led the workshop brilliantly and our pupils had a fantastic time. Well done, boys! 👏 #farleighdrama

I have been banging on about this forever and lovely to see this meta study - diet and supplements really can help dial down #inflammation & #oxidativestress and also improves behaviour in #autism

Neurodivergent people are more than twice as likely as the general population to have hypermobile joints and are far more likely to experience pain on a regular basis - bravo @BendyBrain for this amazing research #autism #Neurodiversity

Why is nutritional therapy so important for autistic kids? Because 76% have significant feeding issues and 28% have severe ARFID. #Autism #ARFID

Many autistic people are very restricted eaters and this is why rigorous nutrient testing is often needed, as they usually don’t miraculously start to eat a broader diet without interventions from professionals like ourselves. #Autism

The reality of the world of ultra-processed baby food - and this is Waitrose!

Aim to keep these convenience foods to a max 20% of your little one’s diet and then cook from scratch 80% of the time

[Lucinda Miller @NatureDocHealth]

Almost every child we see with PANS/PANDAS has out-of-sync organic acids & amino acids mirroring this research - the kynurenine pathway is the key one to get right in these kids and nutrition plays a massively important role #PANS #PANDAS https://t.co/ojjLA1UX5X

⭐️I Can’t Believe It’s Baby Food⭐️
