Abstract

Hyperactivity and tic symptoms in children and adolescents with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) have a bidirectional association with sleep disorders, while magnesium deficiency is a key nutritional factor exacerbating this vicious cycle. The SLS Magnesium Glycinate Complex Liquid Supplement formula adopts the core logic of "sleep improvement - mood stabilization - behavioral regulation" and enhances the neuromodulatory effects of magnesium ions through multi-component synergy. Tailored to the developmental needs of different stages aged 4-16 years, the formula features a child-friendly dosage design, forming a closed-loop regulation in aiding sleep, reducing tics, and maintaining daytime functioning. A 3-month clinical trial showed that the formula improved sleep efficiency by 15%-23%, reduced tic frequency by 21%-32%, and enhanced emotional stability scores by 24%-30% across all age groups with ADHD, with good safety and tolerability. This study provides a targeted nutritional intervention solution for ADHD, and its age-stratified design concept offers scientific reference for precise nutritional support during different developmental stages of children and adolescents.
