Research · ADHD & Food

Your ADHD brain gives out somewhere in the food cycle.
This finds exactly where.

We built a food waste app. Almost nobody used it except people with ADHD.

So we spent a year asking why. Talking to researchers, practitioners, hundreds of ADHDers.

Turns out the food was never really the problem. There's a whole cycle underneath it.

Every ADHD brain breaks at a different point in that cycle. This quiz finds yours and shows you what actually helps.

What actually helps
The finding we didn't expect

We kept zooming out. And it got bigger than food.

We started with a food waste app. Almost nobody used it except people with ADHD. The more we dug in, the same patterns kept showing up outside of food. The decision paralysis. The systems that work for 3 days. The knowing what to do but not being able to start.

We're ADHDers too. We recognized all of it because we live it. Once we saw how much bigger it was than food, we couldn't stop pulling at that thread. So we started writing about it every week. Specific stuff. Worksheets, tools, research deep dives. The kind of thing that makes you go "wait, that's not just me?"
