DESCRIPTION

Attention Support is a proprietary formula to help increase the focus, concentration, and capability of the mind.* Attention Support contains efficacious doses of three nutrients - DMAE, 5-HTP, and Calcium.* DMAE has been described as choline's "friend and partner".*

DMAE is a brain nutrient that is very similar to choline, which is necessary in making acetylcholine - the brain chemical involved in memory and learning.*

5-HTP is an intermediate in the natural biosynthesis of an important neurotransmitter (a substance that helps to transmit messages in the brain) called serotonin.* Serotonin plays an important role in regulating our moods, appetites, and sleep patterns.* When we are stressed or subject ourselves to a poor diet, lack of exercise, environmental toxins, caffeine or alcohol, we can cause a deficiency in serotonin, which can make us feel even worse.*

Lastly, Calcium is a very important mineral which few of us get enough of from our diet.* Besides bone health, few of us realize the importance it plays in maintaining health in all our cell functions, and that there is important evidence that it may influence our moods and behavior.* Calcium has been known to exert a calming effect, and a lowcalcium diet has been linked to an agitated mood-state.*

RESEARCH SUMMARY

Focus and Concentration

• DMAE promotes healthy mood-states in adults and children.*
• Low-calcium diets have been linked to an agitated mood-state. *

• Motivation and aspects of personality have been noted to be improved with the use of DMAE, especially the tendency for people to become more outspoken when they are normally withdrawn.* In addition, DMAE is thought to help people to produce more energy, as it has been subjectively reported to do so in studies.* DMAE is known to improve the interhemispheric flow of information in the corpus cavernosum of the brain, which is thought to improve creativity and verbal fluency.*

• DMAE has been shown to increase ribonucleic acid (RNA) in the brain of rats, and to be able to increase oxygen utilization.*
• In one study, DMAE was given to 14 elderly to determine its effect on mental function.* DMAE was given at the rate of 600 mg three times daily, and was reported to improve irritability, anxiety, and motivation.*

• DMAE has been reported to reduce the amount of sleep needed by about one hour each night.* It is also known to improve a person's ability to dream lucidly and vividly.* 5-HTP is an important chemical in our brains that helps to regulate our sleep patterns.* When serotonin is out of balance, so are our sleep patterns and our ability to refresh ourselves.*
