Drinking Water and ADHD

Post by admin »

Drinking Water and ADHD
  • Manganese Exposure: High levels of manganese in drinking water during childhood have been linked to an increased risk of ADHD, particularly the ADHD-Inattentive subtype.
  • Chemical Contaminants: Contaminants like lead can trigger symptoms that resemble or exacerbate ADHD in children.
  • Disinfection By-products: Some studies have examined the link between tap water disinfection by-products and neurodevelopmental consequences, though results are mixed.
