So that lifestyle of nutrition does play an important role in creating inflammation in the gut. Because now you've allowed candida to grow. Candida is highly immunogenic, highly inflammatory, and will definitely trigger the immune response and neuroinflammation we just talked about. But she also had an imbalance where she did not have enough of that enzyme to break down histamine.

So there's a chance that she's having histamine levels that are too high. and she's eating high histamine foods. And what that means is histamine can actually cross the blood-brain barrier, and there's histamine receptors in the brain. And when that histamine interacts with those receptors, it creates excitation, agitation, and it will actually worsen your symptoms of ADHD. She had that as well.

Exactly. So if you eat high histamine foods, avocado, garlic, onions, citrus fruits, and the like, if you... In the audience, if you're listening, Google histamine foods, make a list of them, and see what happens when you eat them. A lot of people with ADHD say, I get worse. My brain just gets fogged out. I get irritable. I get agitated. So she had that going on.

So right there, if I just started working on that with her, and exposed her to nutrition, got her eating cleaner, healthier foods, stopped having to eat sugars, having more fiber, polyphenols, aged foods, Right there, she's going to begin to feel a huge improvement.

I put her on a candida protocol. We use antifungals. In her case, I used botanical antifungals. And I gave her a probiotic that... actually had the ability to limit histamines in the gut. I gave her an enzyme to use if she was going to eat high histamine foods, and I gave her some glutamine to help clear up and fix the leaky gut. So Candida Protocol,

So we then do a pretty big deep dive into your nutrition, neurotransmitter balance, mitochondrial assessment, and all your nutrients. It's usually in one big test. It can be called an oats test. Other companies have different names for it. But you're looking at- Organic acids. Organic acids that are products of metabolism.
