Our brain is like a virtual filing cabinet where the completed tasks, acquired information, and experiences are all processed and then stored - nothing is lost, instead just taking a little more effort to retrieve.
Clearly, it is important to maintain a healthy nervous system and good, sound brain function. A healthy brain and nervous system depends on the supply and flow of oxygen-rich blood and nutrients to all parts of the brain. A brain which is well supplied with nutrients and oxygen will not only work well, but will also play a part in mood, energy levels and motivation levels. Conversely, a healthy blood supply to the brain will also assist in the removal of carbon dioxide and other gaseous wastes.
What is ADD?
ADD (Attention Deficit Disorder)
is a diagnosed disorder which affects concentration, attention span and the ability to focus on the task at hand.
ADHD (Attention Deficit Disorder with Hyperactivity)
is usually much easier to identify. Apart from their difficulties with concentration and memory, children and adults with ADHD often have associated behavioural problems in class, at home and in the workplace, due to their impulsive behaviour and hyperactivity. (For safe and effective treatment for ADHD, see Focus Formula™.)
Children and adults with ADD (without hyperactivity) often go unaided and undiagnosed. They may be very intelligent people, but because of their concentration and memory problems they perform poorly in school, college and the workplace and seldom reach their full potential.
They often feel listless and can lack motivation and energy because of their constant struggle to concentrate and focus on their work. Sometimes they can even develop depression due to their inability to reach their potential and the negative feedback they receive from those around them.
Children and adults with ADD are often unfairly called ’stupid’, ’dumb’, ’lazy’ and other hurtful names, when all they need is some help and understanding.
What are the symptoms?
Easily distracted by sounds and other things happening in the environment
Difficulty following instructions and completing tasks despite the desire to do so
Forgetful and neglectful of chores and tasks
Difficulty concentrating and maintaining focus on the task at hand
It stands to reason, therefore, that maintaining an adequate supply of blood to the brain will help to increase oxygen and nutrient supply and maintain a healthy balance of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the brain – thereby maintaining healthy brain functions like concentration, attention span, mental alertness and memory. These are just a few of the many reasons why regular exercise, healthy diet, and sufficient sleep are all very important to enhance brain function and the nervous system.
Rather than treating problems in isolation, naturopaths prefer to take a holistic look at the individual and incorporate changes in a number of areas including diet, lifestyle, surroundings, and emotional elements - thereby supporting the health of the individual as a whole.
In addition, natural remedies have been used in traditional medicine for thousands of years to support the healthy functioning of the brain and nervous system, helping to maintain efficient concentration and memory functioning.
In more recent times, research has confirmed this traditional wisdom. There are now many published clinical studies demonstrating the ability of a range of herbs to support the normal functioning of the brain and nervous system and maintain the healthy flow of oxygen and nutrient- rich blood to the brain and peripheries (Pointel JP, Boccalon H, Cloarec M, Ledevehat C, Joubert M. Angiology 1987;38[1 Pt 1]:46-50).

"I was diagnosed by the college psychologist with adult ADD three weeks ago. I have been taking 5mg. of Adderall three times a day and then increased to 10mg twice a day and a 5mg tablet as my third dose. I ordered the Adult Focus and have been taking it in half doses with the Adderall and have noticed an even clearer outlook and better concentration, and this has just been 4 days." Kathleen H.
"I’m a 71 year old male that had problems with concentration most of my life. I was not hyper but had this problem that I was flipping channels constantly in my mind. When I was 60 years old I went to a mental health professional that after two days of testing, determined I had ADD and prescribed Aderall. It helped, quite a bit, but seemed to tire me. I stayed on the medication for about 8 years when one day, as I was surfing the net, I ran across the Native Remedies site. I tried the Focus ADDult and find it to be superior in every way to the prescription drugs I was on. Focus ADDult calms me without making me tired and allows me to focus. I am still working as an Engineering Consultant and without Focus ADDult I’m sure I wouldn’t be half as effective. Thank you, so much, for a great product."Rex
"Wish I had this years ago! Focus ADDult has been a life and work saver!"Diana N.
"For a long time my 14 year old son struggled in school and it wasn’t so much that his grades were bad, it was the fact he would get bored and lazy. He turned his attention towards doing things that disrupted class which rewarded him with being marked down. He began to lose interest in school and didn’t care anymore. When he was younger, the counselor had suggested having him tested for ADD and having him put on Ritalin or the equivalent. I told her that when I found a natural alternative, that is what he would take. My son did not have all the symptoms associated with ADD, but had one or two and that was enough for me to start him the Focus Adult. Well to this day, his teachers are stunned!! Where did this kid come from they ask me? These are the same educators that told me my son was not "A" material. He hasn’t received a perfect 4.0 but at least he has been able to add a few A’s to his report card. I try to tell the world about what this product has done for me, but my small voice doesn’t compare to the big drug companies who continue to poison our children. So my fight goes on to help anyone that will listen to this great testimony of my son. I am so thankful to native remedies and I’m very proud of my son!! Success breeds Success!!!" Mandy K.
"I’ve suspected I have ADD for some time now - may it’s early Alzheimer’s creeping in (I’m 40). What I do know is that I abhor chemicals and have not sought out an official opinion on this because the officials are only going to push drugs on me. I take no drugs and I’d like to keep it that way for as long as possible. I was skeptical at first about Focus ADDult, as I’ve tried many herbal remedies before with varying results - usually subtle results. I do not know what regular ADD drugs feel like and how effective they are, but I have to say that I have noticed a difference in my ability to focus on my studies when I take this blend of herbs. It’s real too. I don’t feel anything, like I’m buzzing or racing, all I know is that focusing on the task at hand is easier and I don’t get distracted any where near as easily as I’d been just prior to trying this. The norm for me was about 5 minutes of studying and about 5 minutes distraction. Now I can keep at what I’m doing for hours now with only minimal, resistable, distractibility. I’m going to order another bottle now." Jackie
"Great Product!!! I’m off Strattera after only 2 weeks, and this works even better!" Shelley
"My son (12yrs) has been struggling with his grades for several years. I’ve had him tested for many learning disabilities and ADD but all the tests came back negative. I knew he was smart, but he just couldn’t seem to concentrate on his schoolwork. That all changed when I received Focus ADDult. I know your add says it will take about 3 weeks to notice a difference, but I’m telling you, the difference was instantaneous. We received the product on a Thursday evening and on Friday he had a big Science test. After taking your product, he got an A on the test. I thought maybe it was a coincidence, but every test he has taken since taking the Focus ADDult have been A’s and B’s. This has literally changed our lives (not to mention his self-esteem). He no longer minds doing homework and he actually stays focused the entire time. I cannot thank you enough for your product and I will definitely be a life-long customer. Thank you!!" Debbie
"For 2 years, I took Strattera and it worked. However, I was constantly drowsy and had dry mouth. It got to the point where Strattera made me feel demotivated, rather than motivated to achieve success, largely due to the drowsiness. I switched to the Focus ADDult and Brain Tonic for about a month now, and it works. I use it 1-2 times daily, but most of the time, it is 1x daily. I have to say that if I don’t take the Focus ADDult with the Brain Tonic, it doesn’t work quite as well. Perhaps it is because the Focus ADDult helps me to focus, whereas the Brain Tonic is nutrition for the brain. I recommend anyone who purchases the Focus ADDult also purchase the Brain Tonic as well."

Focus ADDult is a 100% herbal formula which contains the following carefully selected herbs in therapeutic dosage:
Gotu cola
(Centella asiatica) is traditionally used as a tonic to support a healthy brain and nervous system. Centella asiatica is recommended to facilitate mental clarity, attention span, concentration, healthy brain function, and balanced mood. Centella asiatica is also a favorite food of elephants and, as we all know, elephants never forget! Recent studies have suggested that Centella asiatica improves cerebral blood flow (CBF) and circulation in general (Pointel JP, Boccalon H, Cloarec M, Ledevehat C, Joubert M. Angiology 1987;38[1 Pt 1]:46-50), thereby allowing oxygen-rich blood to penetrate deep into the brain. Studies have also suggested that this herb may be beneficial as a mood tonic (Bradwejn J, Zhou Y, Koszycki D, Shlik J. J Clin Psychopharmacol. 2000;20[6]:680-684)
Rosemary
(Rosmarinus officinalis) is well-known in modern herbalism as an all-around tonic and energizer. Like Centella asiatica, studies have also suggested that Rosemary can promote healthy cerebral blood flow (CBF) (Pointel JP, Boccalon H, Cloarec M, Ledevehat C, Joubert M. Angiology 1987;38[1 Pt 1]:46-50). In addition, recent laboratory analysis has found that Rosemary contains acetyl-cholinesterase inhibitors, chemicals that prevent the breakdown of acetylcholine in the brain (al-Sereiti MR, Abu-Amer KM, Sen P. Pharmacology of rosemary [Rosmarinus officinalis Linn.] and its therapeutic potentials. Indian J Exp Biol. 1999;37[2]:124-130). Acetylcholine is a brain chemical which is involved in memory functioning, and deficiency in this chemical has been linked to serious mental diseases affecting memory.
Asian Ginseng
(Panax Ginseng) is one of the most prized and expensive Chinese herbs. A three-month study showed a significant increase in subjective "quality-of-life" scores among ginseng users (Marasco C, Vargas R, Salas V, Begona I. Double-blind study of a multivitamin complexes supplemented with ginseng extract. Drugs Exp Clin Res. 1996;22:323-329). Similarly, college-aged volunteers who took 100 mg of ginseng twice daily for 12 weeks experienced a statistical improvement in the speed at which they were able to perform mathematical calculations (D'Angelo R, Grimaldi M, Caravaggi M, et al. A double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical study on the effect of a standardized ginseng extract on psychomotor performance in healthy volunteers. J Ethnopharmacol. 1986;16:15-22). Soviet scientist, Dr. Brekham, identified it as a superior adaptogen, normalizing body functions, reducing stress and preventing disease (Brekham, I.I. Eleutherococcus. Leningrad: Nauka Publishing House. 1968). Further studies demonstrated that mice fed with Panax ginseng were able to learn tasks quicker, perform at a faster rate, and make fewer mistakes (Iljutjecok, R.J., Tjaplygina, S.R. "The Effect of a Preparation of Eleutherococcus Senticosus on Memory in Mice." The Dept. of Physiology, Academy of Sciences of the Soviet Union, Novosibirsk. 1978). Panax ginseng should not be confused with either Siberian ginseng (Eleutherococcus senticosis) or American ginseng (Panax quinquefolius)

Best results are achieved when Focus ADDult is used consistently alongside lifestyle factors such as diet, health, sufficient sleep, and fitness levels. These all play a part in maintaining overall healthy cognitive functioning and contribute to good health and well-being.
How long will a bottle last?
One bottle of Focus ADDult at full adult dosage (10-15 drops three times daily) will last 20-25 days.
