What’s Really Driving Your ADHD Symptoms? Let’s Find the Root Cause

Are you or your child struggling with focus, impulsivity, or emotional overwhelm… and wondering if it’s ADHD?

💡 What if those symptoms are just the surface—and underneath is something deeper?

At ADHD Naturopathic clinic we take a root-cause approach. In our latest blog, I explore the often-overlooked drivers of ADHD-like symptoms, including:

🌱 Gut imbalances
🥱 Sleep issues
🥬 Nutrient deficiencies
☣️ Toxin & heavy metal exposure (even inherited from parents!)
🧬 Genetic mutations like MTHFR
🥗 Food sensitivities
🌀 Chronic stress or anxiety

💚 ADHD isn’t always what it seems. With functional medicine testing and herbal support, we can get clarity—and real solutions.

I recently saw a client who was doing all the "right" things—taking magnesium, calcium tissue salts, B12, and a range of supportive herbals—yet she still had persistent muscle aches, poor sleep, and zero improvement in how she felt.

She was frustrated and confused. That’s when we decided to run a Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA).

🧬 What we found was eye-opening:

Low calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium, manganese, and cobalt—despite supplementing consistently.

Her HTMA pattern showed a "Fast 2" stress response, meaning her body was burning through minerals at a rapid rate—even though she didn’t feel stressed.

Cobalt was completely absent—which tells us she wasn’t absorbing her B12.

She also had markers suggesting low stomach acid (low HCl)—a major factor in poor mineral absorption.

Low manganese can contribute to poor blood sugar regulation, joint and ligament health, and yes—poor sleep.

⚠️ This is why testing matters. Without it, you’re just guessing. She didn’t think she had gut issues… until her minerals told a different story

Great blog on how Yelling makes ADHD children worse. It interrupts with their brain development.

🔊 Yelling Doesn’t Work for ADHD—Here’s What Does 🧠

Ever feel like yelling is the only way your child with ADHD listens?

You’re not alone—but yelling doesn’t help an ADHD brain. In fact, it can create long-term issues with brain development, emotional regulation, and behaviour.

🚫 It’s not a behaviour issue.
🌿 It’s a nervous system issue.

I’ve just written a new blog explaining: 💥 How yelling impacts the ADHD brain (hint: it’s more biological than you think)
🧠 Why ADHD kids are more sensitive to stress and harsh tones
💞 What to do instead—tools that actually help calm the chaos and support healthy brain wiring

👉 Read it here: https://adhdnatclinic.com.au/blogs/news/yelling-and-adhd-how-it-impacts-brain-development-and-what-to-do-instead

At my clinic, I work with children and families to get to the root cause of ADHD symptoms—through functional medicine testing, herbal support, nervous system regulation, and gentle, brain-friendly parenting strategies.

✨ If you’re feeling burnt out, overwhelmed, or like nothing is working, you don’t have to go it alone.

📲 Book an initial consultation appointment today and let’s support your child in a way that works with their brain—not against it.
