Episode 1: ADHD & Nutrition - Understanding the Struggle to Eat Well

Ever wonder why “just eat healthy” feels impossible when you have ADHD? You’re not alone... and it’s not about willpower. In this episode of Bite of Mind, registered dietitians Rachel Robinson and Ilkay Baseski unpack the science behind why ADHD can make food choices, meal planning, and even remembering to eat such a challenge.

From dopamine dips and executive dysfunction to hyperfocus and sensory burnout, they reveal how the ADHD brain shapes eating habits — and share practical, judgment-free tips to make fueling your body and mind feel easier.

If you’ve ever found yourself skipping meals, bingeing late at night, or feeling overwhelmed in the kitchen, this one’s for you.
