Tag: Stimming

According to neurodivergent-affirming resources like Liv Label Free, eating is a multisensory experience that can be a form of stimming, or self-stimulatory behavior. The repetitive action of chewing or seeking specific tastes and textures provides sensory input that helps regulate the nervous system, especially for those with autism or ADHD.

Research indicates that nutrient deficiencies, particularly in magnesium and vitamin D, are common among individuals with neurodevelopmental conditions like autism and ADHD. This has fueled a growing inquiry into *what supplements decrease stimming*, and how nutritional support can help regulate the nervous system and potentially ease repetitive behaviors.
