ADHD and Excersise

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is diagnosed as a disability in

children who are inattentive, hyperactive, and impulsive. Children with ADHD suffer

from acting with thoroughly thinking through a situation. Although a definite cause

of ADHD has not being found, scientists believe a low number of neurotransmitters,

heredity history, and environmental toxins play a large correlation with the

disability. About 90 percent of children who have ADHD take a stimulant medication

such as Adderall to stimulate the pre-fontal cortex which is responsible for

attention and impulsivity. Research has also shown that exercise also plays a large

role in stimulating neurotransmitters associated with ADHD.
