There are a lot of different supplements out there that can help improve your brain functionality and help with things like ADHD. But they don’t become effective unless you test to see what your body needs first.

So I ran some tests on myself to see what neurotransmitters and amino acids I was deficient in to see what would be the best nootropic to take to improve my ADHD brain.

In this video I go over my experience of only taking 1 supplement/nootropic for 30 days to see if it would make a difference for my ADHD and focus. I share my experience over the past 30 days taking it and what my final thoughts were on the nootropic of choice.

    I’m sure you covered this in another video but why wouldn’t you just take a proscribed adhd pill like Dexedrine ?
    this essentially seems to not work if you stop taking it much like other meds. Not being rude or anything just curious.

    This is crazy ? This is EXACTLY what I used to take every day, especially workdays, BEFORE I knew I had ADHD. I don’t even remember where I read about it but I do my research which is how I just found you on YouTube. ? Btw, I was diagnosed less than 2 years ago at age 45. I still can’t focus. I’m going to purchase and start taking again. And I do take ADHD meds. Thank you!

    Great video. I started taking the dl Phenylalanine and did notice a difference. Can I send you an email? I would like to get more information on the testing you did and finding a therapist in my arear. Any assistance you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

    Can I get more information on how to get tested on what my brain is lacking like you did before you took the dl-phenylanine? I totally agree, prescribing adhd drugs without testing is just guessing.

    For those who may not mind diving one resolution layer deeper:
    D [dextro-rotary] and L [levo-rotary] are stereo twins of eachother. L- and D-amino acids are two possible orientations of a particular amino acid in nature. With few exceptions [some bacterias use D aminos for building blocks] amino acids in human biology are usually the L variety.
    They are the mirror image of each other.
    Also, they can be considered as the isomeric forms, stereoisomers or enantiomers. while L-amino acids can rotate plane-polarized light counterclockwise in a process called levorotation, D-amino acids can rotate plane-polarized light clockwise in a process called dextrorotation. It has been considered that only L-amino acids are utilized in mammals, including humans. However, because of the recent development of sensitive and selective analytical methods for detecting chiral amino acids [125], diverse D-amino acids have been found in mammalian tissues. The physiological functions of these D-amino acids are being gradually clarified. Known exceptions are D-Serine used as a neurotransmitter that competitively docks at Glycine sites of the NMDA receptor complex, making it useful in addressing conditions such as schizophrenia, ADD, and some neuralgias. Similar activity with D-Alanine.THE D IN DLPA IS EXCLUSIVELY DERIVED SYNTHETICALLY D-Phenylalanine (DPA) is an inhibitor of the enzyme (enkephalinase-a carboxypeptidase) known to breakdown (catabolize) endorphins, especially enkephalins. Thus, if we increase brain enkephalins by administering DPA, the amount of enkephalins will increase in the brain. HOWEVER, the D form of Phenylalanine DOES NOT contribute to the L-DOPA >catecholamine pathway, only its L isomer does. It has also been demonstrated that D-amino acids, such as D-serine, D-aspartate, D-alanine, and D-cysteine, play important roles in the nervous and endocrine systems. It is VERY IMPORTANT TO NOTE that D and L forms of a chemical, DESPITE HAVING THE SAME NAME, ARE AS DIFFERENT FROM EACHOTHER AS ANY TWO CHEMICALS WITH DIFFERENT NAMES including their properties! As an example of this fact: The D form occurs commonly with many molecules you may be more familiar with such as glucose and other sugars, My favorite, Amphetamine, whose L form is Over The Counter in most countries including here in The USA. Yet whose D form may land you in a heap of trouble without proper approval or a reliable plug!
