  • 181: The Truth About Artificial Dyes and ADHD with Dr. Ana-Maria Temple
    2025/10/23
    Artificial dyes are in so many of the foods marketed to children,—cereals, candies, sports drinks, and even some everyday snacks. While they may make foods look “fun,” for sensitive kids, these chemicals can trigger tantrums, mood swings, hyperactivity, brain fog, and full-on emotional chaos. In this episode of The Soaring Child Podcast, host Dana Kay, ADHD health practitioner and founder of the ADHD Thrive Method for Kids, welcomes back Dr. Ana-Maria Temple, board-certified pediatrician, functional medicine practitioner, and author of Healthy Kids in an Unhealthy World. With over 20 years of experience, Dr. Temple has seen firsthand how removing dyes can dramatically change children’s behavior. Together, Dana and Dr. Ana-Maria Temple break down what the research really says about artificial dyes, why the U.S. lags behind other countries in regulating them, and what parents can do right now to protect their kids. From real-life clinical stories to simple swaps and mindset shifts, this conversation empowers parents to make choices that support calmer, healthier, and happier children.

We need to relabel what’s fun—food is nutrition, not entertainment.” “If you can’t read it, don’t eat it.” “Instead of being a ‘no’ culture, be a ‘yes’ culture: yes to snacks, but first choose a fruit or vegetable.” Dana Kay Resources: 🔗WEBSITES: ▶ https://adhdthriveinstitute.com/ ▶ https://dana-kay.com/ 👋SOCIALS: ▶ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ADHDThriveInstitute/ ▶ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/adhdthriveinstitute/ ▶ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/ADHDThriveInstitute ▶ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/adhd-thrive-institute/mycompany/ ▶ Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.ph/adhdthriveinstitute/ ▶ Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@adhd_thriveinstitute 📕INTERNATIONAL BEST SELLING BOOK: ▶ Thriving with ADHD – https://adhdthriveinstitute.com/book/ 💻FREE MASTERCLASS ▶ Free Reduce ADHD Symptoms Naturally Masterclass - https://bit.ly/3GAbFQl ⭐COURSES & PROGRAMS ▶ ADHD Parenting Course – https://info.adhdthriveinstitute.com/parentingadhd ▶ ADHD Thrive Method 4 Kids Program – https://adhdthriveinstitute.com/packages/

  • 179: Magnesium & ADHD Explained with Dana Kay
    2025/10/09

    Magnesium is one of the most talked about supplements for ADHD, but it’s also one of the most misunderstood. In this episode of The Soaring Child Podcast, host Dana Kay breaks down why magnesium matters so much for kids with ADHD, the different forms available, and how to choose the right one without making symptoms worse.
    Drawing from her own experience as a parent and as an ADHD health practitioner, Dana explains how magnesium supports sleep, mood, focus, and stress regulation, and why it must be paired with a strong foundation of diet and gut health. Parents will walk away with practical tips, clarity about which forms work best, and a framework to avoid the trial and error mistakes most families face.

    ▶ Mag Essentials - https://shop.adhdthriveinstitute.com/mag-essentials.html

    Key Takeaways:
    [01:30] Why magnesium is a big deal for ADHD kids
    [03:03] Food-first approach to boosting magnesium
    [05:03] The 8 different forms of magnesium—and what they each do
    [07:19] Why supplements won’t work without foundational health

    [10:12] Recap: Practical framework for using magnesium effectively

    Memorable Moments:
    “Not all magnesium is created equal — the form you choose can make all the difference."
    "You can’t supplement your way out of an inflamed body — foundation comes first."
    "If the gut hasn’t been supported or inflammation is high, even the best magnesium won’t make a dent."
    "Magnesium can be a powerful ally for your child — but it’s not magic."
    "I’ve tested dozens of magnesium products, and none combined the forms I wanted for ADHD support — so I created one."
    "Start low, go slow. Track reactions. Never start two supplements at the same time."
    "Food-first, foundation second, then the right supplements. That’s the order that actually works."
