About Mrs. C & Me
Arriane Brunner (Mrs. B)
Hello and welcome! My name is Arriane. I am a Certified Holistic Nutritional Practitioner, C.H.N
You may wonder, what is and why Holistic Nutrition?
Everyone is biochemically unique. Holistic nutrition evaluates the individual as a whole
person; their complete health history, emotional state, current lifestyle and nutritional habits to
determine the root cause of their health issues.
There is no one-size fits all approach that can be applied to everyone. I customize your
approach to health and wellness by recommending what works for you and adapt to your likes
and needs. It also means knowing when to reassess; what worked for you before may not work
now.
My mission is to work collaboratively to simplify your life and achieve optimal health through
whole foods and sustainable lifestyle practices.

Children: How Nutrition Impacts ADHD
Nutrition plays a key role in managing ADHD symptoms in children. A balanced diet supports healthy brain function, emotional regulation, and energy levels. Nutrient deficiencies—such as low levels of omega-3 fatty acids, iron, or zinc—can worsen inattention and hyperactivity. High-sugar and highly processed foods may also lead to energy crashes and mood swings. Supporting children with ADHD through nourishing, whole foods can help improve focus, behaviour, and overall well-being.

Adults: How Nutrition Impacts ADHD
For adults with ADHD, nutrition is an important—yet often overlooked—part of managing symptoms. What we eat affects mood, memory, focus, and emotional regulation. Diets high in sugar and low in essential nutrients can contribute to brain fog, impulsivity, and low energy.
For women, hormonal fluctuations—especially around menstruation, perimenopause, and menopause—can intensify ADHD symptoms. Nutrition plays a key role in supporting hormonal balance, stabilising mood, and reducing inflammation. Protein-rich meals, healthy fats, and steady blood sugar levels help promote mental clarity and emotional resilience. Thoughtful nutrition empowers adults with ADHD—especially women—to feel more grounded, focused, and in control.
Supplements
How Supplements and Vitamins Can Support ADHD
Supplements and vitamins can play a supportive role in managing ADHD by filling in nutritional gaps that may affect brain function and emotional regulation. Nutrients like omega-3 fatty acids, magnesium, zinc, iron, and B-vitamins (especially B6 and B12) have been linked to improved attention, mood, and impulse control. In some cases, individuals with ADHD may have lower levels of these key nutrients, and supplementation—when guided by a healthcare professional—can help optimise brain health. While supplements aren’t a cure, they can be a valuable part of a holistic approach alongside nutrition, lifestyle, and other therapeutic supports.
