• Episode 229: My Child Isn’t Hungry on Their ADHD Meds… What Now?

  Supporting Your Child’s Nutrition While on ADHD MedicationIf your child is on ADHD medication and you’ve noticed their appetite has disappeared, this episode is for you. One of the most common concerns we hear from families is: “They’re finally more focused, but they barely touch their lunchbox.”This week on the podcast, we’re unpacking why ADHD medication can impact appetite and what you can do to make sure your child is still getting the nourishment they need to grow and thrive.💡 While these ADHD medications can be incredibly effective for behaviour and focus, they can also lead to a noticeable drop in appetite especially during school hours when kids need fuel the most.Whether your child has just started their ADHD meds or you’ve been navigating this for a while, this episode will help you understand what’s going on and what you can do to support their growth, mood, and overall wellbeing.Here’s what we cover:Why appetite loss happens on ADHD medication (and why it matters). Smart meal timing & snack strategies for when your child is hungry. Easy ways to boost nutrient intake for fussy eaters (even in small amounts). The role of supplements and when to consider extra support.Our go-to tips for parents who are feeling stuck or worried.If you’ve been feeling stuck between supporting your child’s focus and their nutrition, this episode is for you.As we share in this episode:“Appetite suppression doesn’t have to mean poor growth or poor nutrition. Sometimes it’s just about one small shift that makes a big difference.”🎧 Tune in to learn more about how to find the balance so your child can thrive both mentally and physically on their ADHD journey.🌱 If you’d like extra guidance, our Naturopath Sarah offers online naturopathic consultations for personalised support.
