I was going to say I feel mountain dew is the flavor of ADHD but then I was told that their is orange flavoring and orange juice in dew so go figure

Jeanschyso,

I never liked it. And I could sit still just fine. Wasn’t hyperactive, which is why I was only diagnosed at 20 years old.

ArbiterXero,

Then you’re missing the H.

I think I found it here, wanna bounce? …. Literally 😝😝

xkforce,

I cant stand artificial orange flavor tbh.

surewhynotlem,

It’s the toupee effect. You notice the people who drink uncaffeinated sodas more because they’re not self medicating and mitigating their symptoms with caffeine.

xmunk,

Keenan loves orange soda.

GiantRobotTRex,

Isn’t Kel the one that loves orange soda?

teraflopsweat,

Like famously it’s literally in his catch phrase

xmunk,

Fuck, my meme memory betrayed me.

OmgItBurns,

Someone with memory issues and ADHD? Unheard of!

Keenan probably loves it too, he just never expressed it like Kel did. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Shameless,

    Might wanna have a looksie about BVO

    Rhynoplaz,

    Just curious, are you implying it causes or medicates?

    I will argue against “causes” because I started showing symptoms before I was allowed to drink pop.

    Mom was very “natural”

    cheese_greater,

    Im not questioning anything about you, more like “BVO has been said to be more prevalent in some ‘citrusy’ sodas”

    Love European Fanta. Hate the American crap. Also I’m more of an orangina.

    nyoooom,

    Yes

    iHUNTcriminals,

    I don’t know if its the mandala effect but I think I remember all the “wild” (90s) kids going to the color orange.

    Mojojojo1993,

    Maybe something to do with this

    eu.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/…/71435888007/

    xkforce,
    1. There does not appear to be any study showing a causal or correlational link between BVO consumption and hyperactivity or ADHD.
    2. Even if there was, orange sodas are one of many that contained BVO which means that you would expect any drink with BVO in it to correlate with ADHD not just orange flavored ones.
    Mojojojo1993,

    On unlikely they’d be a link. Just coincidence. I’d assume anything laden with corn syrup would disrupt ADHD but that’s purely an uneducated guess

    xkforce,

    It could also be that fanta is caffeine free and caffeine is known to help with ADHD symptoms. So it may not be what theyre drinking so much as what they aren’t.
