Most parents are programmed to think that their kids are the very best, most special kids in the whole wide world. My husband and I are no different. We have one daughter (11 years old) and according to us, she is the most priceless thing that ever walked the Earth. BUT …

She has always had real struggles that read like cliff notes for ADHD. I finally recognised it for what it was about three years ago, and I’m still working to get her assessed. In the meantime, she struggles with maintaining focus, social  interactions, impulsivity, and emotional regulation. The loud - I mean ground-shakingly loud - emotional outbursts were happening on a daily basis. Sometimes multiple times a day. It got to the point where it was just about all my husband and I could do to try to hold ourselves together and keep calm while we tried to manage her emotions. To say nothing of teaching her appropriate behaviour. Some of you reading this might relate, but it is so hard to describe what it’s like to feel your nerves shredded into tatters and still work to hold things together. Because you have to. This is what it was like for us.

I can only imagine what it felt like for our daughter.

Very luckily, I’m a nutritionist, and I know firsthand just how powerful *quality* medicinal mushrooms can be! After hearing several accounts of people having success with lions mane mushrooms for neurological health support, I did a deep dive and found enough peer reviewed studies to decide that it was worth a go for my girl. I started her on New Roots Lions Mane, as well as a probiotic - New Roots Pro-Intensity. The change in her feels like a miracle. She has been on these supplements for a month and a half now, and no longer seems to struggle quite so much to stay focused. The emotional outbursts decreased in volume and are now easily manageable. But most gratifying of all, she seems to be able to listen to us a little bit and take things on board. It’s also worth noting that we have always helped her to watch her sugar and wheat intake, as well as artificial colourings. However, it’s been since she started taking these two supplements that we have really seen the difference. I feel like singing praises from the rooftops - but will settle for writing it all down. New Roots - we cannot thank you enough!!
