Listol was created as a non-toxic alternative to commonly prescribed amphetamine-based stimulants that are typically prescribed for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, otherwise known as ADD or ADHD.
As a doctor who treats Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and as the mother of a son with ADHD, I am familiar with it both as a concerned parent and healthcare provider.
Thus far, I can report positive feedback regarding the medication. In my opinion it is most effective in those with mild to moderate cases of ADHD.
This dietary supplement contains magnesium, calcium, vitamin B6, iron, zinc, DMAE and GABA powder. They are all natural neurotransmitter boosters that contribute to overall brain functioning and are also natural soothing agents.
Many sufferers of Attention Deficit Disorder frequently take them all as individual supplements, but this handy supplement combines them all into one pill for the sake of convenience.
Deficiencies in all of the above mentioned nutrients are known to contribute to the observable behavioral symptoms of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder including hyperactivity, inattention, and impulsive behavior.
In fact, studies indicate that children with the most severe deficiencies in iron and magnesium were also the most inattentive, impulsive, and hyperactive.
Specifically, low iron stores may explain as much as 30% of ADHD severity.
Some users experience results immediately after taking it, but it may take a month or two before the full benefits are realized.
The reason for this is that medications affect everyone differently depending on the individual. This makes predicting specific timeframes regarding benefits a bit tricky.
Tips
It is important to remember that every individual is different and therefore everyone reacts to medications differently.
As a result, there is often a bit of trial and error involved in finding the most effective balance for each individual. Remain patient, and keep trying if you have not found the right balance for you.
I have yet to hear or read about any negative side effects with this ADHD supplement, but it is always wise to consult with your doctor before taking any medication, particularly if you suffer from any pre-existing medical conditions.
Benefits
Another significant benefit of this ADHD medication is that it has no addictive properties or withdrawal symptoms unlike amphetamine-based stimulants such as Ritalin. This fact alone make this medication attractive for parents who are leery about giving their children powerful stimulant medications.
