In reply to Adderall poop out, posted by jerrypharmstudent on December 19, 2008, at 15:40:06
Jerry, I've been taking adderall 80mg twice a day for several years now, and I'm wondering if you might do better twice a day than 3x. When do you feel you need it most? In the morning? Then take more then.
As for poop out, I've found a couple of supplements that have really helped me in terms of mental energy, focus and motivation. There have been plenty of studies now to substantiate the effectiveness of omega 3 fish oil supplements in depression and some show their effectivness in ADD. There is now a special formulation, however, called Vectomega, which is much more powerful and effective than your standard fish oil supplements. The research on it was funded by the French govt., and it uses a special technology to radically increase the bioavailability of EPA and DHA in the brain. It makes me feel brighter, clears the fog from head, helps me concentrate, etc. Interestingly, I never felt these effect from regular fish oil. The package says take 2 a day. But for mental illness, I take six.
The other supplements are the line multivitamins put out by Vitamin Code. These use Raw Food Created Nutrients, which again drastically increase the bioavailability of the individual nutrients. I like the Perfect Weight one best, as it gives me a good energy boost and helps me lose weight, too. It's also a good idea to take a a calcium/magnesium supplement in a 1:1 ratio, which helps your muscles relax, as well as 1000 I.U. of Vitamin E per day, which makes the omega 3's work better. `Dwight
