ADHD Children Today News Tip # 1

"Dedicated to helping ADHD kids and all kids."

Breakfast rules for ADHD kids, their friends, their parents, and
their teachers:

1. Never skip breakfast
2. Breakfast must include protein

White-bread toast and jelly for breakfast? Or last night's left-over
casserole for breakfast? Hope you chose last night's tuna and hard-
boiled egg casserole. Hey, some kids like it so much they'll eat it
cold! It's got protein for energy and staying calm.

Too much sugar--yes, white bread has sugar in it--increases
hyperactive behavior!

Just for kids: Make a list of everything you could eat for breakfast
that has protein in it. Can you think of something really crazy?

Here are a couple things to get you started: How about a peanut
butter sandwich or some tuna salad?
