Would sugar have the same effect as caffine in children with ADHD?
My son has ADHD and it doesn't seem like sugar has that much of an effect on him, but he does have a sleeping problem. I have tried giving him Benadryl (at the advice of my doctor) it doesn't seem to help. We have also tried Rozerem and Melatonin. All help a little, but its still a problem.

Many children and adults with ADHD have problems sleeping.
