If you want the
0:02
absolute best natural remedy
0:05
for ADD slash ADHD,
0:07
stay tuned. This data
0:09
is from Dr. William
0:12
Kaufman, MD, PhD. I'll put
0:14
his link down below. There
0:17
is a very simple
0:19
vitamin deficiency involved in
0:21
this condition, but you cannot
0:24
fix this condition by taking the normal
0:26
amounts of this vitamin. You have to
0:28
take higher amounts. There's two
0:30
main versions of this vitamin.
0:33
You have niacin and niacinamide. The one
0:35
that you're going to need for this
0:37
condition is niacinamide. You know, one of
0:39
the big challenges with using
0:41
vitamin therapy is that the
0:44
research is usually using low doses of
0:46
vitamins, which are basically worthless. And the
0:48
other problem is that just the medical
0:50
community is unaware of this. Not to
0:52
mention the bad PR in vitamins. You
0:54
know, they're dangerous. They kill
0:56
people, which is absolutely not
0:58
true. And also, like one
1:01
third of 125 medical schools
1:03
give you an elective credits
1:05
for nutrition. Like Cornell
1:07
is like you get eight hours
1:10
of nutritional information. Eight hours.
1:12
So check this out. Vitamin B3, what
1:15
it can do for your brain. First
1:17
of all, it's the precursor. It's the
1:19
building block for
1:21
a very important thing
1:24
in your cells that helps
1:26
you extract energy from food.
1:28
It's called NAD. And
1:30
so when you eat, whether it's protein,
1:33
fats, or carbohydrates, this
1:35
molecule helps to take these electrons from
1:37
that food and put into a battery
1:40
called ATP. So if you don't have
1:42
that, then your cells can't
1:44
get energy. And so Dr. Kaufman
1:46
talks about this research with animals
1:49
called increased running when you take
1:51
B3 or what they
1:53
call hyperkinesis, which is
1:56
hyperactivity. Could that affect your ability to
1:58
hold your concentration on one thing? without
2:00
going into another? The answer
2:02
is yes. You start one project
2:05
and then you're off to the next project
2:07
without even finishing this project right here. The
2:09
actual power of a person is
2:12
their ability to hold their attention
2:15
on something that they're
2:17
doing while they're doing it and not
2:19
to do something else with their mind
2:22
at the same time which could be
2:24
either dangerous or just non-efficient or non-productive.
2:27
So vitamin B3 can greatly help
2:30
your nerve cells get
2:33
energy so you can
2:35
actually hold your attention on something and
2:37
not be so restless or having to
2:39
move every five seconds. So
2:41
B3 can help the hyperactivity and the
2:43
focus at the same time. There's a
2:46
lot of people who have these conditions
2:48
that they're so tired but they can't
2:50
go to sleep. It's terrible. So
2:52
the overall have this like nervous wound
2:54
up feeling and I had this for many years
2:56
and I didn't know what it was. When
2:59
you become deficient in certain nutrients, the
3:02
brain and nervous system get hyper excited
3:04
and then they kind of burn out
3:07
but that's really what happens. So B3
3:09
is very very important for the neuron
3:11
to calm it down, to
3:13
help it balance all the neurotransmitters and
3:16
on top of that the most important
3:18
thing is to give the neurons energy. The
3:20
version of B3 that you need to take
3:22
is niacinamide. Now niacinamide is
3:24
water soluble so it's not going to stay
3:27
in the body for very long. So
3:29
what you want to do is you want to take
3:31
250 milligrams, six
3:34
to eight times a day and this can work
3:36
great for children and of course I'm not telling
3:38
you to come off your medication and you know
3:41
check with your doctor with all that.
3:43
I'm just giving you some fascinating research
3:45
that you need to beware of and
3:47
implement if you want an alternative because
3:49
there's very low toxicity or side effects
3:51
if any at all. The research on
3:54
this has been ignored for 70 years.
3:56
So it's
3:58
about time. that we know about it
4:01
and we spread the word. And I'm gonna put some
4:03
more information about the doctor down below so you can
4:05
study more about this, but it's actually quite fascinating.
