ADD/ADHD
NUTRITIONIST NYC

ADHD Nutrition Specialist &
Registered Dietitian in New York

Manage ADHD symptoms with individualized dietary interventions. Detect trigger foods, reduce exposure to artificial colors and additives, improve intake of omega-3 fats and micronutrients, and develop a lifetime of healthy habits for children, teens, and adults with an ADHD nutritionist in New York.

Can ADHD Be Affected By Diet?

Diet alone isn’t the cause of the many behaviors and cognitive symptoms children, teens, and adults experience with ADD or ADHD. Nevertheless, there is continued, and renewed, interest in studies that point toward some foods and additives that might affect some symptoms in some patients with ADD/ADHD.

Dietary Strategies to Manage ADHD

Dietary strategies for managing ADHD often involve the exclusion or removal of specific items from an individual’s diet, such as sugar, candy, and foods containing red dye. This approach is based on the premise that sensitivity to certain foods might trigger or exacerbate ADHD symptoms. Nevertheless, extensive research has failed to substantiate this as an effective treatment method.

Another approach involves the use of nutritional supplements and high doses of vitamins to address potential nutritional deficiencies. Some individuals believe that these supplements can improve ADHD symptoms, but scientific evidence does not support this notion.

We recognize that there are a lot of qualifiers here, but it’s imperative to understand there’s no one-size-fits-all nutrition treatment for any medical condition. Moreover, highly restrictive diets that are so popular in the media have been proven to be ineffective and even detrimental. If it sounds too good to be true, it usually is.

Meal planning and cooking can feel like an uphill battle when attention, time management, and executive function challenges are in the driver’s seat. At NYC Nutritionist, our online and in-person nutrition therapy is designed to transform food-related stress into realistic, sustainable routines—free from the pressure of perfection.

How can a nutritionist on our team help?

  • Decision Simplification: We replace rigid, overwhelming meal plans with flexible frameworks that adapt to your daily energy levels.

  • ADHD-Friendly Systems: Build meal prep habits that actually work—think short prep times, fewer steps, and repeatable wins.

  • Strategic Grocery Support: Create organized, budget-conscious lists that prevent the dreaded “aisle paralysis.”

  • Executive Function Shortcuts: Master the art of “assembly meals” using semi-prepared foods, smart batch cooking, and freezer-stable options.

  • Balanced Nutritional Foundations: Focus on the key micronutrients and omega-3s that support cognitive focus, stable energy, and long-term health.

  • Family-Centered Solutions: We provide family support to help parents and children align on meals that meet everyone’s sensory preferences and schedules.

  • Real-World Flexibility: Learn to navigate restaurant menus and takeout mindfully for those nights when cooking at home isn’t an option.

Through personalized online nutrition therapy, we help you reduce the “brain fog” of mealtime. Our goal is to make nutrition less of a chore and more of a tool for improved symptom management battle-free family meals.

Testimonials

Loving my appointments with NY Nutrition Group. They take a wholistic approach to your nutrition and health, instead of just telling you what food groups to put on your plate or to simply cut out entire foods. I better understand how food works in my body in coordination with activity, sleep, mental health and overall health and wellness. I’m so glad I found them. They are helping me heal and improve my relationship with food and my body

by – Liz Lane

Working with NY Nutrition Group was the best decision I ever made! Lisa Moskovitz is an expert in intuitive eating and eating disorders. She is truly the only person that has been able to help my eating disorder recovery. Lisa is very kind and knowledgeable! I highly recommend to anyone looking for support – Hope S.

  • I had the pleasure of working with Cassie Steinberg, Registered Dietitian over a period of 6 months. We met weekly to come up with personal health habits and fun meal ideas. What began as me wanting to lose some weight really ended up becoming a process of self-love and creating daily eating habits I could live with long-term. Cassie was creative and kind. She helped me in so many ways to accept the body I have and to nourish it daily. I highly recommend her as a Dietitian and body image guru

    by – Angie Goncalves

Have been working with Lisa for 9 months and am very pleased with the experience. I’ve seen progress toward my goals, but more importantly, the way that Lisa frames progress is holistic, balanced, and not overly obsessed with the scale. I’m grateful to have someone to share my stressors and disappointments through the process who has the knowledge and perspective to help assuage them. I’ve never once felt like I was being pushed into unsustainable habits or behaviors that are isolating. A great person to add to your care team if you want to build a healthy, realistic relationship with food and your body!

I have had the pleasure of working with Jeanne for a couple of months now and I’ve never felt better. Since I first started working with her she listened to all my goals and always gave me the best guidance and recommendations to meet my goals. I’ve noticed that I make wiser nutrition decisions since working with her and value the sessions we have

by – Maria Toro Franco

I’ve had the pleasure of working with two outstanding nutritionists. My former nutritionist left during COVID. Since then, I’ve been working with Julia DiPietrantonio. Julia is culturally competent, which is very important to me … If you’re looking to gain confidence not just a sense of control over your relationship with food, Julia is a great partner. I really appreciate NYNG, and I hope they continue to see cultural competency as a key pillar of their platform – Zahra Marie
