Dispelling Myths about Supplements for ADHD

  • April 10, 2025
  • 12:00 PM
  • ADDitude Webinar

With so many alternative and complementary dietary interventions marketed for ADHD, it’s tough to separate science from hype when seeking to improve symptoms. Some people add supplements like fish oil or zinc to an existing medication regimen; others take supplements alone.

But are supplements considered safe and effective for treating ADHD? And if you’re taking medication, will supplements pose a risk or cause interactions with your medication? This webinar will explore the latest research findings about non-medication approaches to ADHD management. Stephanie Sarkis, Ph.D., psychotherapist and author, will discuss why stimulant medications remain the most effective treatment, along with exercise and behavioral therapy.

In this webinar, you will learn:

  • About effective, evidence-based treatment options for ADHD
  • About the importance of therapy, exercise, nutrition, and sleep in managing ADHD symptoms
  • About the latest research findings involving the efficacy of medication and alternative and supplemental ADHD interventions
  • About alternative interventions that claim to help symptoms but can waste time and money
