I like the SlowMag....it is available at WalMart.
Some people get laxative effects even from small doses orally and SlowMag avoids that. It was initially developed for use by doctors, but it is OTC for anyone to buy. I use now a magnesium lotion...this is very nice and gentle. If you have neck pain,you can apply it there. Morton's Epsom lotion available also at WalMart in stores, and Amazon online. Use only about a quarter's diameter at a time, and at bedtime, as it helps sleep. It is very new and not in other stores as yet, as far as I know. This is my magnesium thread with tons of information: http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/thread1138.html The lotion is only $5.98.... magnesium that works does not have to cost alot.

Your multi has a very small amount of B's, especially B-12. Look at the ingredients and do the math. You need 500 times the B-12 and 100 times the B-6.
I'd get a good nutrition supplement regimen going and taper off the Adderall a bit and see how you do. Your brain may just find out it can work properly. But then, I believe clinical ADHD diagnoses are overdone. Some ADHD oriented neurofeedback and learning focus skills will help your brain live drug free or with less drugs.

Thanks Mark I appreciate the response.
Is there a particular high quality brand B-12, and B-6 I should add in? Usually Whole foods carries good gluten free quality vitamins, and supplements. Thanks |

A methyl based B-12 lozenge is the best. Any B-6 is OK. Don't get hung up on brands and 'high quality.' Your multi brand is outrageously over-priced.

Hello, I was recently diagnosed with PCS. Injuries were sustained 20-40 years ago. A lifetime of emotional and cognitive problems, always blaming myself. I saw an integrative neurologist and began getting LORETA neurofeedback. In addition to PCS, I was diagnosed with heavy metal toxicities, low Vitamin D levels, and hypothyroidism. Here is the list of supplements prescribed by my healthcare professionals.
1. Ubiquinol (the absorbable form of CoQ 10): 100 mg, 3x/day 2. Fish Oil (EPA heavy): 1000 mg, 2x/day (max dose is 3,000 mg/day) 3. SAM-e: 800 mg in the morning, 400 mg at 2:00 p.m. 4. Vitamin B Complex: one/day (a necessary co-factor for SAM-e) 5. TMG: 650 mg, once daily (a necessary co-factor for SAM-e) 6. Curcumin: 500 mg/day 7. Vitamin D3: 7000 IU/day (Vitamin D does not absorb well in the GI tract; am considering getting a Vitamin D injection for faster respone) 8. Vitamin K2 complex: 2200 mcg/day 9. Multivitamin - I take Life Extension brand "Two-Per-Day" tablets In addition, the neurologist prescribed a drug called Nimotop (aka nimodipine) to improve impaired brain circulation. It is a calcium channel blocker. This is an off-label use of an FDA approved drug. |

Yes, I use Puritan's for some things.
Their methylcobalamin works, as I was tested 3 months after starting it to trial it. I get several things from Puritan's when they have their buy 1 get 2 free sales. They are a GMP verified supplier. http://www.gmpcompliance.net/CGMP_De...MP_Defined.htm
