Functional ADHD Support is a specialist, integrative approach that looks beyond the diagnosis to identify biological, nutritional, hormonal, and lifestyle factors affecting attention, mood, and emotional regulation.
Adults, children, and teenagers with a formal ADHD diagnosis or ADHD-like symptoms, as well as those experiencing concentration, motivation, or emotional regulation difficulties, can benefit.
Unlike standard approaches, functional support addresses root causes—such as nutrient deficiencies, hormone imbalances, or gut health issues—rather than only managing symptoms.
Supplements may be recommended when appropriate and tailored for age, development, and specific needs. Medication integration is also supported for adults, where applicable, to optimise effectiveness.
Some individuals notice changes in focus, energy, or mood within weeks, while for others, benefits may take a few months. Progress depends on the person, adherence to recommendations, and any underlying health factors.
