Key Supplements
- Omega-3 (EPA/DHA) 2-4g/day (PROVEN effective—reduces symptoms comparable to low-dose stimulants in some studies, high EPA formulation)
- Iron (if deficient—ferritin <50 linked to ADHD severity, don't supplement without testing, 30-80mg if low)
- Zinc 30-50mg (deficiency common in ADHD, supplementing improves symptoms and medication response)
- Magnesium 400-600mg (calming, improves focus, many deficient)
- Vitamin B6 with Magnesium (neurotransmitter production)
- L-Tyrosine or L-Phenylalanine (dopamine precursors—500-1000mg morning, use cautiously, contraindicated if on MAOIs)
