ADHD Benefits of Each Ingredient: • Ahi Tuna (or Wild Tuna): Rich in omega-3 fatty acids (EPA & DHA) which support neurotransmitter balance, focus, and mood regulation. Studies consistently link omega-3s with improved ADHD symptoms. • Avocado: Loaded with monounsaturated fats and vitamin B6, both crucial for brain function and dopamine production—supporting better concentration and stress regulation. • Sushi Rice or Quinoa: Provides complex carbohydrates for steady blood sugar, which helps prevent energy crashes and improves sustained attention. • Quinoa also contains magnesium and iron, often low in individuals with ADHD. • Cucumber & Carrot: Adds hydration and crunch without sugar spikes. Carrots are rich in beta-carotene, a brain-supportive antioxidant. • Coconut Aminos: A soy-free, low-glycemic alternative to soy sauce. Doesn’t spike blood sugar—key for focus. • Sesame Oil (optional): Contains tyrosine, a precursor to dopamine—a neurotransmitter that plays a role in ADHD symptoms. • Lime Juice: Enhances absorption of iron from the tuna and quinoa, which is vital for cognitive performance and attention.
