Describing living with ADHD in a television interview, the musician Shaun Ryder said it was like having “a box of frogs in me head”. My husband was diagnosed with ADHD some years ago, and he agrees. He describes it as never being able to turn off, like having dozens of windows open in a browser simultaneously and them all playing something different.

This section will include some facts about ADHD, where nutrition comes in, and some practical guidelines on how to plan, cook, and eat well.
