Patient's question:
What fruits can people with ADHD eat?Doctor's answer:
Foods rich in vitamin C. Vitamin C combines with lead to form a water-insoluble compound that is excreted from the body through the feces. A daily intake of at least 150 milligrams of vitamin C is recommended, with those experiencing lead poisoning symptoms needing to increase their intake to 200 milligrams. Vitamin C is widely found in fruits, vegetables, and the leaves of some plants. Fruits with a sour taste, such as oranges, lemons, pomegranates, and hawthorns, particularly sour jujubes, contain the highest amounts. Apples, strawberries, tomatoes, and others also contain vitamin C.
