    As a woman with adhd who has gone on her own research journey to settle adhd, i cant tell you how on point this guy is. I havent tried amino acids, but i might consider it because stimulants make me anxious. It kicks my brain into overdrive. Plus, women have hormones that like to mess with us extra just because we are biologically women.
    Loved listening to this guy speak about his experiences.

      Amino acids work very well for adhd
      L Theanine is brilliant in mornings too for focus and sustaining energy without a crash .. I’m trying Get Dopa this week

    Elvanse seriously worsened my sleeping issues. As a result I'm aging rapidly and have peak cortisol levels further damaging my health. Thank you for presenting a different approach.

    Very important point to add.
    Make sure you try vitamin D3 first...(whether you are already taking stimulants)if you are getting afternoon crashes and nodding off at weekends as it could simply be down to supplementing
    Vitamin D to help boost energy levels and improve muscle function. Vitamin D helps muscles work efficiently by enhancing the activity of mitochondria, which are the cell's batteries.

    I have a hard time taking this company founder’s claims seriously when he is selling a product to solve the problem he’s discussing. First-line ADHD medications are the most effective psychiatric medications, but they still don’t work for everyone. That doesn’t mean that it isn’t good.

    I gave up half way through this advert for something unavailable in the UK by the CEO on the big 'I am'. ..
    Unbearable.

    I see a lot of comments regarding lack of availability outside North America. I was diagnosed with ADHD when I was 20 (now 22), initially I was started on Vyvanse. After reaching the maximum adult dose of 90mg per day, I had many of the side effects mentioned in this video. I left it behind to experiment with nootropics, and I can say that it is worth your time and energy to research and seek options regardless of the brand.

    Bollocks. Adhd increases cortisol. I find stimulants profoundly relaxing to the point that they cure insomnia for me, and the first time I ever had a good night's sleep was when I first fell asleep on a full dose of lisdexamphetamine.

    • @elinaselene
      @elinaselene 4 дня назад +8

      I agree, I have just been diagnosed with ADHD at age 55 and have been titrated on ADHD medication for just over 6 weeks. I cannot tell you how it has turned my life around. I'm getting a full nights sleep with no crash in the day, I am more productive, less anxious, less depressive rumination, I'm finally the person I always wanted to be.

    • @f.d.6667
      @f.d.6667 3 дня назад +5

      Yup. Same over here. Sometimes a formal education DOES have some advantages... Anyway, I just discovered Ashwaghanda Root as a cortisol adaptogen as a supplement and it really helps to balance out some of the Medikinet side effects.

    • @meoao8829
      @meoao8829 3 дня назад +4

      It's highly individual how much noradrenalin and other neurotransmitters your brain produces because brain chemistry is influenced by thousands of genes, diet, physical activity, sleep cycle, emotions and many other factors we don't understand fully yet. Even ADHD alone is a spectrum with very different symptoms that can change over time. Good for you if this works for you well, but there are millions of ADHD people for which it doesn't work at all or has serious side effects. For some people ADHD alone doesn't increase cortisol but stimulants do.

    • @lisablinn3264
      @lisablinn3264 3 дня назад

      Glad that it works for some but for me, I am still searching. Lisdex just makes me faster at being scattered and all over the place. Others notice and comment that I have "taken my meds" because I talk, walk, type, everything at warp speed so I am not certain this is the medication for me.
      I have heard others say they take their meds and their mind is quiet, they focus and are productive. I haven't hit that magical place yet. I have experienced the moody aggressive nature with another med so perhaps the third time is the charm.
      If a natural supplement might help to smoothe out the extreme highs and speed I'm willing to give it a try. My whole life has been negatively impacted by ADHD, I got my diagnosis at 50 and still have a lot of anger that I was made to feel incompetent, was told I was depressed and that was not it at all. I, like many other hard working, talented people have suffered greatly and have been robbed because of misdiagnosis.

    Also, i think its a big pharma thing in the US just to "bandaid" the issue with medication. Agreed, its not that its bad to take medications its just that its prescribed too much and too often. The root problem could be as simple as having more vitamins, minerals, proteins, etc in your diet.

      As ADHD brains work differently and we can see that in tests your jdea is nice but falling short to the need of patients.

      Interesting: I was posting a way for you to build your own supplement formulation from cheap OTC products - but the YT comment scrubber deletes it every single time. I'm building my own "Soft Ritalin" from 3 cheap non-prescription products and this stuff helps me a lot...

    • @f.d.6667
      @f.d.6667 3 дня назад

    • @f.d.6667

      1/4: I was going to say: “well just buy from a different brand” … until I realized that you live in DK where it IS in fact quite impossible to get stuff at a reasonable price that costs next to nothing elsewhere in the world. There is good news, however: It’s quite easy to re-create non-prescription formulas from OTC products.

    • @f.d.6667
      @f.d.6667 3 дня назад

      2/4: Sometimes it is cumbersome but with a little effort, you can get 95% without breaking the bank: Take Amen Clinics' “S0ft R1tal1n” (plant-based) for instance - with L-Theanin from a certain online D-M0rr1s pharmacy in NL and 2 or 3 formulations from “dm” drugstores in Germany ...

      Scattered. Isnt that ADHD 101? He jumps around a lot, and not a whole lot on noortropics in detail. Best to research supplements, and mineral depletion and symptoms. We lack understanding if lacking minerals and vitamins is a major factor. Do Rx displace healthy fats and healthy options for treatment?
