Effects of Lemon Verbena Extract Supplementation on Behaviour Mood and Cognitive Function in Sub-ADHD Children
The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of 15 mg/kg lemon verbena, in comparison to placebo, on the attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) type behaviour and cognitive function of children who do not have a diagnosis of ADHD, but who exhibit high scores (highest tertile) on ADHD behaviour parameters. Multiple aspects of mood will also be assessed. The proposed randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel groups design methodology will assess the psychological effects of 15 mg/kg lemon verbena extract and a matched placebo prior to and after 4 and 8 weeks of supplementation. The trial will utilise the COMPASS cognitive assessment system (Northumbria University) and a range of mood measures during laboratory testing visits. Parents and children will also take part in a concomitant smartphone study, comprising the collection of the parent's assessment of the child's behaviour/cognitive function and the child's self-report of the same, plus their mood. These assessments will take place on Days -1, 14, 28, 42 and 56.
