Any natural medications/supplements for ADHD
Search this guy's posts. Eclecticentric77 He has some great, raw info about supplements.
where can i search for Eclecticentric77? thank you
Same here. I put the name in the search space and it comes back saying there are no results.
Broad spectrum micronutrients through either Hardy Nutritionals or True Hope. My son, 7, has been on them for several months with great success. He is no longer on stimulant medication.
Which products from hardy nutritionals do you recommend? Do you recommend the product from true hope EMpower Plus Advanced ?
From Hardy Nutritionals they are called daily essential nutrients. From true hope they are the empower plus.
Thank You!! Which one do you prefer??
Hi there, it's quite humbling to see some others have recommended my info. Anyway, yes I have a supplement plan I have shared with many families and individuals on here. I myself have inattentive ADHD and take multiple supplements along with stimulant medication.
A good strategy plan when it comes to supplements and ADHD, should include aiming to help the brain with the specific neurotransmitters that give us the most trouble. The following neurotransmitters should be addressed.
Dopamine : A neurotransmitter in the brain that affects your levels of concentration, motivation, pleasure senses, and sense of pain.
Norepinephrine : A neurotransmitter and stress hormone that deals with attentiveness, emotions, impulse control, planning ahead, sleep, and interpreting actions of others.
Serotonin : A neurotransmitter that deals with mood regulation, sleep, nervousness, empathy, appetite, digestion, and sexual urges.
Acetylcholine : A neurotransmitter that deals with muscle contraction, pain responses, mood regulation, REM sleep, and coordination.
if you click my profile pic, it will take you to my profile, where in my bio you'll see theres a link of a google doc I made of every supplement I take that includes ones specifically to help those low neurotransmitters I mentioned above. It mentions what grocery stores and online stores (Amazon has all of these supplements a lot cheaper than markets like Sprouts and Whole Foods) sell these supplements, and some information about each of the supplements and how they help out people with ADHD, in case you're interested.
