Welcome to the SNACK Lab

Our mission is to examine complementary and integrative interventions in children and adolescents with stress or ADHD to optimize their mood and behavioral regulation. We have conducted clinical trials examining mindfulness, as well micronutrients, also called “multinutrients,” a blend of vitamins, minerals, and amino acids. We carry on this research alongside Dr. Julia Rucklidge, PhD in New Zealand where our principal investigator Dr. Jeanette Johnstone, PhD trained. The Research Overview tab  provides a summary of our published research.

Currently, we are enrolling participants (6-12 years old) for a study that investigates the feasibility and acceptability of multinutrients in children with ADHD from diverse backgrounds to reflect the demographics of the surrounding communities in Portland, OR. This study will facilitate the generalizability of our findings to to a wide group of children with ADHD
