The hypothesis that some children with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) may show sensitivity or allergic reactions to various food items has led to the development of the the few-foods (or oligoantigenic) diet. The rationale of the diet is to eliminate certain foods from the diet in order to exclude potential allergens contained either naturally in food or in artificial ingredients with allergenic properties. The oligoantigenic diet attempts to identify individual foods to which a person might be sensitive. First, ADHD symptoms are monitored while multiple foods are excluded from the diet. Subsequently, if symptoms remit, foods are re-introduced, while observing the individual for the return of symptoms. An advantage of the oligoantigenic diet is that it can be tailored to the individual. A growing body of evidence suggests that behavioral symptoms of subgroups of children with ADHD may benefit from the elimination of certain foods. The effect sizes of an oligoantigenic diet regarding improvement of ADHD symptoms have been found to be medium to large. Available evidence suggests that the investigation of the role of food hypersensitivities in ADHD is a promising avenue worthy of further exploration. Further large-scale, randomized controlled studies including assessment of long-term outcome are therefore warranted.

In comparison with the baseline before the dietary intervention, the mean ADHD rating scale IV score showed a significant improvement not only immediately after commencing the diet, but also at follow-up 3.5 years later [ 81 ••].

Purpose of Review Various nutrients and diet quality have been suggested to be involved in the pathophysiology of ADHD. The purpose of this review was to examine data from recent cohort studies and dietary interventions to determine whether nutrition may play a role in the management of ADHD. Recent Findings Preliminary evidence suggests that minerals might have beneficial effects on ADHD symptomatology. Probiotics might offer novel strategies to prevent or treat ADHD. Inverse associations between adherence to “healthy” diets and ADHD symptoms have been observed. Children with ADHD responding to the few-foods diet (or oligoantigenic diet) with an elimination of individually identified food items show substantially improved behavior and cognitive functioning. Summary Evidence from recent research does not allow any recommendations regarding the use of micronutrients or probiotics in the management of ADHD. The few-foods diet may become an additional therapeutic option for children with ADHD.

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a neurological disease that is very common in recent times, and many attempts have been made to overcome it. ADHD is diagnosed in boys more than girls. Girls are more likely to have only symptoms of inattention, and less likely to exhibit disruptive behavior that makes ADHD symptoms more noticeable. This means that girls with ADHD may not always be diagnosed. Artificial intelligence has played a very important role in eliminating this disorder using deep learning technology. Deep learning has three algorithms as Deep Neural Network (DNN), convolution neural network (CNN), Recurrent Neural Network (RNN). The disease is diagnosed using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to determine whether the person is affected or not by taking some snapshots of brain images. A convolutional neural network (CNN) was chosen to extract the specifications or features of fMRI images.There were an optimization technique of the fMRI datasets namely, Nesterov-Accelerated Adaptive Moment Estimation (Nadam). Using these optimization techniques for adapting the classification system for three CNN network or models for ADHD cases, it was concluded that the accuracy for CNN NET 1 is 97.5%, accuracy for CNN NET 2 is 95% and accuracy for CNN NET 3 is 98.75 %. Finally, it's found that CNN NET 3 is the best as its high accuracy so the system is improved.
