Noopept (like piracetam but more potent dose between 10-40mg

Piracetam (derivative of neurotransmitter GABA (most popular and safest nootropics   3200-6400mg to get desired effect. 



Piracetam is a derivative of the neurotransmitter GABA. It’s one of the most popular and safest nootropics in the world. It boosts blood flow to the brain and is used to treat various other psychological disorders like depression schizophrenia and epilepsy.

Piracetam is a powerful cognitive enhancer that boosts concentration, energy and even increases synaptic plasticity. People with ADHD should use doses ranging between 3200 – 6400 mg to get the desired effects.


Noopept is similar in its effects and mechanism of action to Piracetam, though much more potent. A typical Noopept dose is between 10 and 40 mg. Noopept improves memory retention and recall, making you process information at a faster rate.

It helps you stay focused for longer periods of time and also has neuroprotective properties. On top of that, its side-effects are minimal. Noopept is healthy for your brain because it encourages the formation of new synapses and neurons.



L-Tyrosine is an amino acid that is synthesized within the body from phenylalanine. L-Tyrosine is important in the production of many of the body’s proteins and neurotransmitters which are linked to ADHD: epinephrine, dopamine and norepinephrine.

Studies from the 1980’s hypothesized that ADD may be a product of L-Tyrosine deficiency. Although that probably isn’t the cause, L-Tyrosine can boost focus and energy levels by increasing the production of the dopamine, norepinephrine and epinephrine.


Supplements may help boost dopamine levels, including:





Sleep 

Waking up a night?   Myoinositol ~900mg  or Theanine 100-400 mg 

Falling asleep/ sleep latency:  mg Bisglycinate or Mg-Threonate,  Apigenin (derivative of chamomile)   Try one for a week, then the other, then maybe both and see what works best,  both is a good combo. 

Melatonin lowest most effective dose,  works great for some, not so great for others

Ginkgo Biloba is one of the oldest trees in the world and its leaves are widely used in herbal remedies to treat cardiovascular illnesses, alleviate stress and depression.

It also helps to maintain a healthy blood flow to the brain. Ginkgo is especially useful for increasing attention spans in people with ADD and ADHD. Also, it helps those who suffer from anxiety disorders and is often used in combination with Ginseng.


rhodrola rosea (grape seed extract)  Excellent for fitness and recovery (cortisol modulator) 


Ginseng is one of the most widely researched and effective tonics in the world. Due to the presence of ginsenosides, ginseng is effective at relieving some ADD-related symptoms by boosting dopamine and norepinephrine levels.

Ginseng has been found to improve cognitive performance, speed of performing memory tasks and accuracy of attention-related tasks. Also, it increases overall mental energy and significantly boosts memory when taken with Ginkgo Biloba.


Ashwagandha,

Do we need to rule out anything?

Other causes can be ruled out like with a blood test like checking thyroid, looking for food allergies,  and testing levels of lead and mercury levels (but those are very rare in our area, culture and time). And other blood testing to make sure there are no deficiencies in Magnesium, iron, thallium, zinc, copper vit b’s too. (common in ADHD’ers)


Ask Dr Keel for more information on supplements and how to optimize them for your specific needs. 


Taking curcumin, selenium, vitamin C, and vitamin E can help the liver create glutathione. Sulfur-containing foods like meat and certain vegetables can also boost production. Glutathione is a peptide found in plants and animals. It is a powerful antioxidant produced by the liver to protect the body against free radicals, peroxides, and heavy metals. Glutathione also eliminates poisons such as drugs and pollutants from our bodies.
