Can’t Breathe, Can’t Focus: The ADHD Allergy Link (with William Curb)
About this episode
Skye and Will discuss the link between hay fever and ADHD, exploring how allergies can impact sleep and cognitive function.
Waking up exhausted after eight hours of sleep isn't just bad luck. In this Research Recap, Skye and Will break down a meta-analysis on hay fever and ADHD, including the finding that people with allergies are significantly more likely to also meet the criteria for ADHD. They talk through how swollen sinuses can disrupt sleep, how that can show up as brain fog and forgetfulness, and why the researchers still can't say which condition comes first.
