Somewhere in my review of Dr Amen's information ( TV, book, DVD's) he mentions chick peas as a good food for a type of ADDers.

Here it is on page 246: chickpeas for high seratonin content. The over focused type. Basically their normal levels of seratonin are too low.

Treatment of ADD using standard drug treatment can backfire if the low seratonin levels are not addressed FIRST. I remember reading this and gave my son a supplement ( 5HTP) to counter the Concerta prescription, BEFORE he started taking the Concerta.
