Dietary habits and nutritional status of Danish children with ADHD and the effect of n-3 LCPUFA on ADHD symptoms

This research project has two focus areas: the first focus area (part 1) is an examination of the dietary habits and nutritional status of Danish children diagnosed with ADHD, and this part of the project also includes a study of correlations between intake of specific food items and activity level of healthy children not diagnosed with ADHD.
The second focus area (part 2) is on the effect of early fish-oil supplementation on the later development of ADHD related symptoms in children, and this part will also include a randomized controlled intervention study on the effect of fish-oil supplementation on ADHD symptoms in children diagnosed with ADHD.
