This could be a good new option for those with ADHD who are currently on meds for it.

From what I understand about blood pressure, you should consider taking the meds now and then moving off them once diet and exercise have helped the situation. Hypertension is bad for you health.

That's a really good heads up. I hadn't thought about it much from that angle - that I might already be doing damage that's hard to reverse.

I got my blood pressure machine from the basement and the first reading was systolic 141 diastolic 78. But I had just climbed stairs from the basement. I sat for a couple minutes and now it's 115 over 75. Less anxiety inducing. Definitely something I should be tracking frequently and not have tucked away in the basement though.
