About this trial
The goal of this interventional study is to determine whether reducing ultra-processed food consumption in children and adolescents can improve cognitive function. The main question it aims to answer is:
Does reducing ultra-processed food consumption through online nutritional education improve cognitive function in children and adolescents with attention difficulties? Researchers will compare a nutritional education group to a non-intervention group to assess whether reducing ultra-processed food intake leads to cognitive improvement.
Participants will:
Attend a weekly online nutritional education course for 12 weeks Be encouraged to replace ultra-processed foods with whole foods
