Country Life DMAE 350 mg (50 caps) within category: Attention & Focus
We all feel a little distractible at times, and don't necessarily take medication for it. However, adults and children alike, there are a growing number of us who complain of symptoms, are diagnosed with a disorder, and handed a prescription, often for a stimulant drug like Ritalin.
There are also dozens of natural approaches, not the least of which are behavioral, such as meditation and a greater dedication to study skills.
There is a great deal of controversy surrounding the role of food allergies in attention and hyperactivity problems. Most American studies do not find a link; most European studies do. Click for an informed analysis of the subject from the
Center for Science in the Public Interest.
It terms of herbs and other supplements, it's worth looking at the issue as more than just about "attention." Is the distractibility secondary to hyperactivity? Perhaps calming herbs are in order. Is the inattention due to chronic stress? Perhaps look at adaptogens. Is insomnia a factor? Then investigate natural supplements such as valerian, meditation or relaxation techniques to help cure this issue.
But to generalize, high-dose fish oil supplements are a popular option here, not only because of benefit with attentional issues, but because of the enormity of the side benefits that they may provide. It's also worth looking at zinc, for teenage boys, especially if there is hyperactivity and acne involved; and at vitamin B-6, if you don't remember your dreams.
The herb, Bacopa monniera (or "true Brahmi") can also be quite effective. There's research to show that it helps with memory and attention in both school-aged kids and adults 40-65 years old. (The author has found it tremendously effective himself).
