THE Natural Remedies for ADHD from a Hol...

Kate Moryoussef
About this episode

When it comes to managing ADHD, especially for women balancing hormones, emotions, and daily demands, there’s never a one-size-fits-all answer.

In this week’s episode of the ADHD Women’s Wellbeing Podcast, I’m joined by Kevin Leivers, founder of The Naked Pharmacy, to explore how natural remedies can sit alongside food, medication, and therapy to create a truly personalised wellbeing toolkit.

This episode is here to help you learn more about supplements and diet as part of your ADHD care, and how you can make empowered choices that align with your lifestyle and values. Kevin shares his belief that natural remedies and conventional medicine can (and should) work together, in ways that are tailored to your needs.

With over 35 years of experience across both conventional and natural medicine, Kevin offers practical insights, science-backed advice, and deeply compassionate support for women looking to feel more balanced, calm, and in control of their health.

My new book, The ADHD Women's Wellbeing Toolkit, is now available, grab your copy here!
