Food environment with high plant-based fat supply is associated with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) protection: a global study with more than 150 countries
Globally, fat, particularly plant-based fat supply in food environment correlated with the reduction of ADHD prevalence and incidence, implying its potential protective effects. This is supported by previous reports about the amelioration of ADHD with ketogenic diets. Further in-depth studies are needed to elucidate the underlying mechanistic. This might potentially provide some evidence for future targeted dietary interventions for ADHD prevention.
