Hi upon recommendation from a friend I am trying out brain food to see if it will make a difference.This blend of vitamins, phospholipids and amino acids help optimise production and reception of the brain neurotransmitter, acetylcholine. It also helps maintain proper circulation, particularly to the brain.
ingredients
300mg Arginine pyroglutamate, 60mg Phosphatidyl Choline, 140mg DMAE, 200mg Vitamin B5, 30mg Phosphatidyl Serine, 10mg Niacin (vitamin B3) (nicotinamide, nicotinic acid), 134µg Folic acid, 6.6µg Vitamin B12

I have significantly cutdown the saffron because it felt like it was too much probably because it had built up in my system and lately i've been feeling dozy and tired. lets see how it goes.

you will probably not notice anything from taking your new pills. the only effect you might notice is from the DMAE. and even that might not be noticed. 300mg of argenine is a joke. what that does is expands your blood vesels to increase blood circulation; but it only does that at doeses of 3000mg and up. the b vitamins are good but in the long run and to Phosphatidyl Serine has to be take atleast for a couple of days at 300mg or more a day to notice anything. there is nothing that will boost your brain in the short run. you might notice a slight difference if you take that dosage atleast 3 times a day for atleast 3 days, but still doubt it.

good brain food would be something that creates your neurotransmitters like TYROSINE. try taking 2-3g of tyrosine a day for a couple of days and you will definatly notice alot more focus and memory and above all the feeling of well being.

The reason I have given this a try is because the person who recommended this is a childhood friend who became a schizerphrenic.I know personally how severe her condition was.She used to have all sort of symptoms like voices in her head , anxiety , migraines etc.It became difficult to hold a conversation with her, she has completely lost it.Nothing would get rid of those symptoms but she started taking brain food this same one by higher nature.
When I met her again after 4 years she was a different person completely cured without doctors meds! The results speak for themselves ,she saw no change or effect to start with but she perservered and it paid off.Her migraines had been so severe she had them almost everyday 24/7 .The top of her skull had became soft to touch.I was originally the person who told her to try it.
I have been using higher nature products for years since it was recommended to me by a therapist for my son who had brain damage , he benefited considerably and it improved the quality of his life.He used to fit continously and had various other problems related to his condition.Within a year i was able to stop all his anti convulsants, steroids and various other medications which were giving him very bad side effects.I used only brainfood ,glutamine and blackseed oil and honey.The doctors were amazed though not to pleased because even great Ormond st. hospital had given up on him.

sorry about that, i though u needed an immediate boost in cognitivity and focus from this formula. i though u wanted to use it like a NOOTROPIC. thats y i had things to say about this little stack of compounds. i didnt know you would be using this longterm. this is deffinatly great for long term use. it also has alot of antidepressive compounds in it. so i had negetive things to say about it because i thiugh you would be using it for something else. anyways it sounds like a good longterm supplement and is probably taken first thing in the morning on an empty stomache is im right.

i forgot to mention that its beautiful how we can be our own doctors. real doctors prescribe us chemicals that have severe side effects. alot of antidepressants get prescribed because the companies that produce these antidepressants will pay the doctor something everytime he prescribes it to someone. doctors in my opinion are idiots because they do not know much about real nutrition, herbs, supplements, and natural cures. its beautiful that your friend treated herself without the horrible side effects she would get from what the doctor would prescribe to her. the same case with your son; really impressed. i have this opinion because about a year and a half ago i was put on antidepressants EFFEXOR. im slowly getting of them and have about 1.5 more months to get of them completely. im doing this because i realized that i can cure my mood swings with natural antidepressants

FINAL COMMENT: DO NOT LISTEN TO DOCTORS, DO YOUR OWN REASERCH.

Thanks thats reassuring to read.I wanted brainfood as a longterm thing so that my brain would be sufficiently balanced so that I wouldnt get depressed again and because I think its the right approach for a permanent solution.
I have realised that the brain needs to be nourished with the right nutrients to function properly, so this had to be the common sense approach.

I definately feel better and my memory is also better.But I know the benefits of brainfood can be seen longterm but I really havent felt so good in a good few years and thats inspite of a lot of major problems in my life at present.
