Highlight
- Micronutrient supplementation leads to significant shifts in gut microbial diversity in children with ADHD.
- Decreased abundance of phylum Actinobacteriota observed after micronutrient treatment compared to placebo.
- Increased levels of butyrate-producing bacterial families Rikenellaceae and Oscillospiraceae correlate with clinical response.
- Gut microbiota modulation may represent a mechanistic link between micronutrients and behavioral improvements in ADHD.
