I am currently working on a nutrition/vitamin/minerals page for the neurodiversity organization site. I want to raise awareness,understanding of how they are important for brain functioning and that deficiencies can lead to neurodivergent symptoms or aggravate neurodivergent conditions. Some people use medications to treat things that nutrition can help resolve.
