上面文章提到一些對於ADHD族群飲食上的建議,但改變飲食,是否就可以預防ADHD發生,或是改善ADHD的症狀表現,其實在該研究中並沒有答案。因此,更新的研究發表於2019年的「The Journal of Nutrition」,探討較健康的飲食模式是否與ADHD孩童的症狀嚴重度有關,以及究竟是飲食品質影響了ADHD症狀、還是ADHD症狀影響了飲食品質?該研究分析了3680名參與荷蘭鹿特丹一個前瞻性世代研究(Generation R Study)的孩童資料,在孩童6歲和10歲時,評估孩童的ADHD症狀嚴重度,以及在8歲時評估孩童的飲食品質,再利用統計方法進行飲食品質與ADHD症狀之間的雙向關聯性分析,結果發現,6歲時的ADHD症狀越嚴重,8歲時的飲食品質越差,而8歲時的飲食品質則與10歲時的ADHD症狀沒有顯著相關,這個研究結果確認了ADHD症狀與飲食品質僅有單向關聯。
