    This document discusses nutrition interventions for children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). It recommends evaluating a child's usual diet using a food frequency questionnaire or diet recall to identify foods high in sugar or processed foods to reduce. Nutrient supplementation may be considered if deficiencies are confirmed or suspected. Positive reinforcement, consistency, allowing autonomy when possible, and avoiding food as a reward can help implement dietary changes. The goals of therapy include improved behavior in multiple settings through partnership between the child, family, teachers, and medical team.
