[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m sorry OP, but I would find a new pediatrician.

My son is 7 with anxiety and adhd (related to the anxiety though) and we’ve been to a ped, development ped, and even a sleep doctor and no one has Rx meds for him.

His anxiety and adhd is managed really well with diet, and he has a 504. I meet with his teacher (and principal and counselor) often. He’s doing fine![/quote]

Can you please share his diet that is helping with his anxiety and adhd?  My son is 14 and we are just know starting a simulant but no doctor (and we have seen a number of them) have ever suggested that diet could help.  We know that caffeine is an issue and limit that in both amount and time but would love any other suggestions that could help.  DS hates that he is on medication and is willing to try just about anything with the long term goal of being med free, or minimal, as an adult.[/quote]

PP here. It’s purely our own tracking and data. He has a food sensitivity panel next month.

We do limited wheat/gluten. Excess amount really aggravate his anxiety, and make him angry. We also limit sugar.

We aren’t super strict about it but we absolutely notice a difference in his behavior based on what he eats.[/quote]
