The USA FDA has recently announced a shortage of Adderall. While this is not medical advice and that you should consult with a doctor before changing from Adderall; did you know there is non drug solution to ADHD?

Adderall works by targeting two things. One, it blocks the re-uptake of dopamine, causing dopamine to stay longer in the space between dopamine neurons. Two, it blocks adenosine receptors which also raises dopamine as adenosine acts to down regulate dopamine.

In fact, that cycling of Adderall of taking it on one day and then not taking it the next day is due to the adenosine blocking component being high enough in levels to cause a temporary increase in adenosine receptors.

Due to me not having money for Adderall, I stumbled upon an alternative way to treat ADHD via herbs. Let me show you.

Caution, first you should always consult with a doctor as there is a lot of misinformation out there AND what I am taking does in fact change such things as blood pressure and involve taking natural MAOIs. Two, there are two groups of ADHD variations; one is dopamine dominant and one is both dopamine and serotonin dominant and often requires increasing the L-DOPA dosage while adding a serotonin intermediary to the mix.
