Elimination diets prove to be the BEST CURE for ADD and ADHD disorders

• Elimination diets as a potential ADHD management tool: Recent studies, such as the TRACE and INCA trials, suggest that removing specific foods (e.g., artificial dyes, allergens, or pesticides) from children’s diets may reduce ADHD symptoms in some cases, with the INCA study reporting significant symptom relief in 64% of participants.
• Challenges and limitations of elimination diets: While some children respond positively, adherence to restrictive diets is demanding, and results may take weeks or months to appear. The TRACE study found that a healthy diet showed comparable or better results.
• Debate over non-pharmaceutical interventions: Pharma shills caution against overgeneralizing the findings, emphasizing the need for more rigorous, long-term studies, claiming ADHD management typically requires a multifaceted approach, including medication.

In the ongoing search for effective treatments for Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), elimination diets have emerged as a potential tool to manage symptoms. Recent studies, including the TRACE and INCA trials, suggest that removing certain foods from children’s diets may reduce ADHD symptoms in some cases. With ADHD affecting approximately 6 million children in the U.S. alone, the debate over dietary interventions highlights the complexities of managing this pervasive condition.

What Are Elimination Diets and What Do the Studies Reveal?

Elimination diets involve removing specific foods—such as dairy, wheat, soy, or artificial dyes—from a person’s diet to identify potential food sensitivities. Unlike food allergies, which can be detected through medical tests, food sensitivities are harder to pinpoint and are often linked to behavioral changes like inattention or hyperactivity. The process typically involves eliminating suspected trigger foods for several weeks, then reintroducing them to observe any changes in behavior.

There are three main types of elimination diets: the restrictive “oligoantigenic” diet, which includes only a handful of foods like rice and pears; the multiple-food elimination diet, which removes common allergens; and the single-food elimination diet, which targets one or two foods at a time. While these diets are simple in theory, they require significant discipline and patience, as results may take weeks or even months to become apparent.

The TRACE study, which compared an elimination diet to a standard healthy diet in children with ADHD, found that 35% of children on the elimination diet showed a partial to full response, compared to 51% in the healthy diet group. Despite these results, researchers noted that adherence to the elimination diet was high, suggesting that the diet itself may not be the primary factor in symptom improvement.

Meanwhile, the INCA study reported more promising outcomes: 64% of children on a restricted elimination diet experienced significant symptom relief. This includes kids who stop eating artificial food dyes, artificial sweeteners, monosodium glutamate, and conventional foods that are loaded with pesticides.

While these studies suggest that elimination diets may help some children, “experts” warn against overgeneralizing the findings (these are usually pharma shills pushing medications that make matters worse). “There is no conclusive evidence that elimination diets are a primary treatment for ADHD,” said one pharma huckster, emphasizing the need for more rigorous, long-term studies that Big Pharma will never fund or run.

ADHD is one of the most common neurodevelopmental disorders in children, and its management often requires a multifaceted approach, including medication, behavioral therapy, and lifestyle changes. The interest in elimination diets reflects a growing desire for non-pharmaceutical interventions, particularly among parents wary of medication side effects.
