i think its a gene defect that gets ampflified by bad nutrition, a glucose pathway defect.
Based on what science?
biochemistry
Source?
i can't give you a source, because, believe me, you would be looking at
well its just to much. its biochemistry....
look up glucose acetate metabolism, adhd glucose- insulin pathway gene defects, combine that with insuline resistance. you get the insuline resistance by craving sugar. you crave sugar because of the pathway defect; if you eat the sugar, insuline gets activated, boom you have energy.
ritalin does essentially the same, since its a stimulant, it ramps up basal metabolic rate. if you ramp that up, the body will go into glucoseneogenesis, and insulin will also get realeased. thats why ritalin wont work or work not ideal if you dont eat; it will not work at all if you are insuline rsistant /thats different fron defective insuline realease)
so its the release that is defective from the start.
thats why nutrition with a focus on acetate metablisism has benefits for autism and adhd.
thats why people crave alcohol, acetate metabolism. thats why people on antidepressants crave sweets and alcohol , antidepresesants, most of them, make you insuline resistant. thats how antidepressants slow down metabolic basal rate, and why you get fat and sedentary.
Interesting, I didn't realize that ADHD and autism occur so frequently together. Also:
Well, now I have a rabbit hole to go down. I hope you and your family can find something that works, healthy family relationships can be very rewarding, and avoiding them largely due to a hopefully treatable medical condition sucks. Anyway, thanks for the explanation!
thanks for the link. i marked it for reading.
yeah, the insuline thing really makes me wonder.....
i am very sad that my brother is deteroirating rapidly from 12 years of anti depressants. he had like shizo thoughts, which is kinda normal if you abuse alcohol and various drugs havily, and then decide to go cold turkey.
either way, he is loosing hair, showing all signs of malnutrition while being fat, has all kinds of ailments. his docs dont believe in adhd. my niece got diagnosed recently as well.
its kinda typical that adhd people can't acknowledge adhd,, because it shatters the lottle self worth they retain by claim they turned out this way because of incident X that happened at age 15, or because of hpw my father handled family life (he is not abuseisve or anything, but he is a father with autism, that can be taxing)
wait till you hear that keto nutrition benefits bipolar persons, binge eaters, parkinson people, epileptics, and thoses people who have severe ticks, like, tourettes.
why is that?
the answer is acetate metabolism.
do you want to know why canabis works?
canabis receptors have something to do with the insuline glucose mechanism, i don't know yet what, i am just a former worker with no education.
so, take this all as my opinion.
but, at the other hand, biochemistry does not lie...
it is a very captivating topic. its my special interest for now.
