me as an adult adhd meant a lot to me, thank you
This is one of the most mature videos you have ever made. You are speaking absolute truth, the same things you would say to your friends at a private table. This is very respectable.
I personally went through a very long list of supplements to improve the symptoms of GAD. Considering I have thyroid problems (high antibodies) as well as adrenal gland problems (high cortisol) - they are some of the nuances to keep in mind in order to make the best possible supplement stack. For example I have discontinued taking panax ginseng because one of it's side effects is effecting blood pressure (and I already have a high blood pressure). High workout intensity also take part.
My current stack for brain/hormone health is taking 250 mg emodin 95%, 800 mg holy basil leaf, 400 mg tongkat ali, 200 mg of l-theanine in the morning (will add rhodiola rosea on top). Also 240 mg of Shoden ashwagandha and magnesium glycinate in the evening.
Emodin, holy basil, tongkat ali, rhodiola and ashwagandha must be cycled - I find that 5 days on, 2 days off is one of the best approaches. I also find that kava kava really helps as a momentarily solution when I find myself super stressed. For those who are dealing with similar axiety/high stress problems and need extra help to stay productive and focused all day, you can try 100-200 mg of phenilpiracetam in the morning, it really works (just DON'T do it daily).
"Hello, doctor. I have ADHD and depression. For depression, I take the antidepressant medication escitalopram/mylan 20 mg. If I take the supplement l-theanine, will it be compatible with the antidepressant pill or will it have any side effects? Thank you in advance
I wanted to ask a question about a vid you posted 7 mths ago an ashwagandha and l-theanine, can you take both at the same time or do you have to chose one or the other ?
I agree with testing but a lot people can't afford it.
Even doing some standard labs through your insurance can be effective insight such as thyroid panel, CMP, iron, vitamin D etc. are all good starting points that if any of these tests are low it can contribute to a lot of your ADHD symptoms you are experiencing.
@@ZFabia2010it's cost is the only barrier.
@@doctorlegrand what are the names of the more insightful labs, I'll be getting a new doctor soon
and I'd like to be able to ask for it,
clearly by type
Then I can have it ready for analysis by you
or a out of pocket functional doctor
I had powerful effects within half an hour from taking magnesium threonate, tyrosine, 5 HTP, choline and theanine. I'm really hypersensitive in general and presumably I was magnesium and dopamine deficient. Definitely didn't have to wait a few days for effects, I was sedated for hours the first time I took 1000mg of mg threonate, I reduced the dosage to like 50mg or something and I had to build up really slowly
My son currently takes L-Theanine as a supplement for his ADHD. How effective are the drops vs the capsules? He prefers the drops.
they are still effective. Its better if he takes it rather than not taking it at all if thats what your doctor recommends for him.
Do you see patients out of state? I live in michigan, so how would blood testing and treatment work?
Yes I do see patients out of state virtually. We ship lab kits to clients house directly.
If you are interested the best thing to do is book your first consultation with me so I have chance to deep dive in your medical history to determine what would be the best testing to do and what action plan to put together for you. Here is a discounted link: www.optimalmindperformance.com/offers/FvbWP5Fj?coupon_code=YTOMP400OFF to book a consultation with me if you are interested.
Do you think some useful supplements such as L-Theanine / Ashwagandha, etc.. will run to a shortage in the foreseeable future? We are already seeing it happen with Proper ADHD prescribed drugs. Thanks for the cool videos !!
No, because too many people have adverse affects from Theanine (myself included) so I doubt it.
For some people, Theanine induced depression and rage. It works better for some and makes others worse.
@@Coolguyallthetime2kwhoa I had no idea! I’m so sorry for anyone experiencing this! Thank you for sharing! Vitally important information! THANK YOU! 🙏🏻❤️🤨
@@lindabuck2777 yes, very vital. I’ve tried sooo many things because of others encouraging it, only to find out it doesn’t mesh well, sends me into a spiral and takes time to recover from the imbalance. I’m a huge advocate for natural treatments but these supplements and isolated vitamins are very potent (almost as powerful as pharmaceuticals at times).
Thanks for your well wishes!! ❤️
This is why it’s important to do testing before randomly trying supplements
This is why it’s important to do some lab testing before so you know what your body needs vs doing it randomly because it can have bad side effects if you don’t know what’s deficient or elevated
I always try to buy liquid supplements now because the body finds it hard to digest lucky if you get 20% from a pill but with liquid or drops 💧 don’t have that problem
I was waiting for you to lead us to the good vitamins where we can get them at. This is 1 of my biggest concerns when I buy a supplement is whether or not it is real or any good. I hope you'll be able to tell us either how to tell or where we can get these excellent vitamins. Let's face it they've destroyed the food in this country. And if you do find real food in this country of the USA in these areas that are urban it's going to cost you way beyond when a person can afford
hmmm ADHD and high heart rate, correlation? my heart rate ranges from 70 to 120bpm
Speaking of correlation, I had an episode of high heart rate!
I have Inattentive ADD and a usual resting heart rate of 70-75.
My heart rate went up to 80-90, I was losing gluteus fat and waking up very early in the morning.
My ADD was less prevalent too.
I went to my primary wondering if I was getting hyperthyroid-ish.
Turns out I had developed AFIB!
After the torture paddles came out (I was asleep when they shocked me!) and I was back in normal heart rhythm all of the “improvements” went away.
Too bad we can’t get the benefits of AFIB without the threat of blood clots and stroke…
I’m thinking there is a permeable membrane issue for some conditions.
With a high heart rate, blood pressure rises and perfusion increases and some things improved.
@@billbucktube I was born with a heart condition myself now i'm 39 male, due to see a heart specialist in March next year to do a check up.
I do see it happen a lot with people with ADHD. And if they have an increased heart rate issue they have to be carful with taking stimulant medications. A lot doctors will not recommend stimulant medication if you have a heart issue or heart palpitations.
@@doctorlegrand Agreed...I have an appointment with my cardiologist next year in march 2 weeks before seeing my psychiatrist so year it'll be perfect timing
I'm not a fan of Amazon and their unethical monopoly practices, however saying Amazon adds fillers to supplement without providing any evidence sounds shady. And are you really going to try to fearmonger us on expired supplements? I can't believe I'm having to defend this parasite company, however they sell tons of 3rd party tested brands that include most brands in your video. The fact is that selling on Amazon is costly and the margins are very low. Buying directly help support the channel and is more profitable. Just say that! Make sure you're buying supplements that are 3rd party tested. The FDA is not policing these people.
Get to the point already!
this man is a grifter
- he is an naturopathic 'doctor' not an MD, doesn't bother to say in his 'about' on his youtube page
- he advertises brand products and gets paid when you click his links for things often with weak evidence, as opposed to inform you about generic names
Why Would that bother me?
Even if the greediest. Car salesmen. Online scammer. Cured my adhd…. Once your cured you won’t think this way. I was exactly like you full of pain. Discomfort. Felt behind. Felt it wasent fair. Felt taken advantage of. Other people used to make me so annoyed. Now I only see the one person who matters. The person in the mirror. And the world is better off because of it
@829 I think you got more than adhd bro
