Adult ADHD: check the stack you already take.
Methylated B-vitamins, magnesium, omega-3s, and zinc all appear in the ADHD nutrition research. Scan the supplements you already own and see how the forms and doses line up, before you buy anything else.

What the evidence shows.
In the MADDY randomized trial (Johnstone and colleagues, a multi-site placebo-controlled study published in 2022), children with ADHD given a broad-spectrum vitamin and mineral formula were rated ‘much’ or ‘very much’ improved about three times as often as those given placebo (roughly 54 percent versus 18 percent).
That study was in children, so read it as a signal, not a promise for adults. What it points to, methylation, mineral status, and omega-3 balance, are the same things worth checking in the stack you already take. The useful question is usually the form and the dose, not whether to add one more bottle.
A note on safety. Supplements do not treat ADHD and are not a substitute for care. Talk to your prescriber before changing anything, and never stop a prescribed medication on your own.
What NuLevels checks.
Is your magnesium an absorbable form?
Magnesium oxide is cheap and poorly absorbed, and it is the form in most multivitamins. Glycinate and threonate are the forms used in the calming and cognition research. NuLevels labels the form on every product you scan.
Are your B-vitamins methylated?
Folic acid and cyanocobalamin are the synthetic, low-cost forms. Methylfolate and methylcobalamin are the active ones. NuLevels labels the form of every B-vitamin on each label you scan.
Are you doubling up, or short?
A multivitamin, a B-complex, and a standalone magnesium can overlap or leave gaps. NuLevels totals each nutrient across every product so you see your real daily intake instead of reading one label at a time.
From bottles on the counter to a clear picture.
Scan your stack. NuLevels reads every label and flags off-target forms the moment they appear: synthetic folic acid, magnesium oxide, low-EPA fish oil.
It labels the form of every B-vitamin and mineral, methylated or not, so you can see exactly what you have instead of trusting the front of the bottle.
Every nutrient is totaled across all your products and shown in one view, so you can spot overlaps and gaps at a glance. Share it with your prescriber in one tap.
Premium unlocks your AI Condition Coach.
Ask about your own record in plain language: “Is my magnesium in an absorbable form?” “Am I doubling up on B6?” The coach answers from the stack you built and the labels you scanned, not generic advice. It is information, not a diagnosis.
