[B]Candida Yeast Overgrowth[/B] [LINK=http://www.christianadhd.com/candidayeast.html]Complete article on Candida Yeast Overgowth[/LINK] Candida yeast overgrowth is a hidden condition that wreaks havoc on a person's body. See the article linked above or a complete symptom list and recommended treatments. [B]Blood Sugar Problems[/B] Diabetics are not the only people who struggle with blood sugar problems. There is a condition called [I]hypoglycemia[/I] that is rarely even acknowledged by physicians that can cause ADHD-like symptoms as well. [I]Hypoglycemia[/I] means low blood sugar. Some people have a hard time with blood sugar reaching such low levels they experience brain fog, extreme fatigue, shaking, dizziness, confusion, inability to focus, poor memory, and more. Keeping the blood sugar at steady levels is the treatment for this condition. Eating 6 small meals a day comprised of a complex carbohydrate and a protein is the treatment. Exercise and avoiding sugar and other simple carbs is necessary to keep blood sugar levels stable.
