Help for mental fatigue and poor memory -
Cyntol - Stressful life and poor nutrition will often lead to chronic mental tiredness that first and foremost reduces the capacity of memorizing, but also gives a sort of dementia with symptoms like slow thinking, confusion and disorientation. Factors contributing to such symptoms are free radicals, mineral deficiency and vitamine deficiency. Free radicals are groups of atoms
with an odd number of electrons. Once free radicals begin to form, they set off
a chain reaction resulting in damage to DNA. Cyntol helps eleminating free
radicals before they attack the DNA of brain cells and backs up essential
nutritants. This will help protect against further damage and may result in an
increase of cognitive function.

What is attention deficit disorder, what are the symptom of this disorder and how it ADD treated
Treatment for ADD(ADHD)
By attention deficit disorder, there is
problems of paying attention, problems with concentration and sometimes also
hyperactivity. Attention or hyperactivity
problems are most often diagnosed in children, but the problems use to remain
into adulthood in some form or another.
Attention deficit disorder is not an exact definition of a
unitary disease, and there is probably not one specific set of reasons behind
this diagosis.
Probably also many patients get this diagnois on a faulty basis. People are different and what sort
of activities that angege a person and whot sort a person find boring vary very
much from person to person. This also holds for children. When a person is bored
by the taks he or she is supposed to do or by things he is supposed to pay
attention to, it is difficult to concentrate on those matters and the activity
easily diverges into other areas. Many children are simply bored by many
subjects in schools or by the way schoolwork is organized to the extend that
they lose attention or deliberately disconnect the attention from the supposed
matters. In those cases the problem is connected to the school, not to the child,
and the school should change. However, children in such a situation runs the
dager of being diagozed as having ADHD.
However, some persons have
problems by paying constant attention or by hyperactivity regardless of how the
school, work or society is structured or organized. In those cases attention
deficit disorder may be an appropriate diagnosis. Others have such problem
because they are exhausted and lack vitamins, minerals and other nutrient, but
not in such a way that ADHD is the appropriate diagnosis. And also in cases
where ADHD is a correct diagnosis, the situation can be aggravated by exhaustion
and lack of good nutrition, or a good nutritive status can help to cope with the
disorder.
ADHD is a developmental disorder that largely
is neurological in nature. The term developmental means that certain traits such
as impulse control significantly lag in development when compared to the general
population. This developmental lag has been estimated to range between 30-40
percent in comparison to their peers; consequently these delayed attributes are
considered an impairment. ADHD has also been classified as a behavioral disorder
and a neurological disorder or combinations of these classifications such as
neurobehavioural or neurodevelopmental disorders. These compounded terms are now
more frequently used in the field to describe the disorder. The behavioral
classification for ADHD is not completely accurate in that those with
Predominately Inattentive ADHD often display little or no overt behaviors.
Symptoms of ADD/ADHD
- Difficulty to pay attention to messages from other people.
- Being easily distracted from things happening in the surroundings.
- Problems to concentrate on doing some work.
- Problems to concentrate on a message of some length.
- Problemst of remembering material to learn or tasks to do
- Hyperactivity and impulsivity, or never being able to fall to rest.
- Behaviour problems or negative attitude towards other people.
- Also constantly changing fantacies or other mental activities can be a part of the spectrum of symptoms. These activities are usually pleasant for the child and, in contrast to the activities thay are supposed to concentrate upon.
Often there is no hyperactivity, and in other times hyperactivity is the most distinct symptoms. When hyperactivity is present, one uses the term ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder), if not present, the term ADD (Attention deficit disorder) is used.
By diagnosing ADD or ADHD one is traditionally directed at describing overt symptoms like those listed. It is however also important to have in mind the feelings of the child that is connected to the symptoms. Many children tell that they feel an unpleasant tickling in their bodies when they have to attain concentration towards a subject of when they have to sit still, and that theese feeling get less when they divert their concentration and are constantly muscularly active.
Instead of overt activity ADHD can also cause a constant muscular tension, which have the same effect as overt activities.
The symptoms need not show up in all circumstances. If the subject or task is something that interests the child very much, he need not necessarily have any problems with the concentration and his activity can then be properly canalized to that activity.
The causes and mechanisms of
hyperactivity and attention problems
The basic causes of attention problems and hyperactivity are not fully
understod. Some inherited factors seem to predipose for ADD / ADHD. Allergy
against pollutant or additives in the food and the environment seem to cause
attntion and hyperactivity problems by some individuals. Lack of vitamins and
mierals also seem to cause such problems or aggravate an ADD / ADHD syndrome
allready present.
ADHD has been linked to deficiencies of magnesium, Zinc and the vitamine pyridoxine and to internal lack of the hormon or transmitter substance GABA.
Intensive guiding and counceling of the child or adult durings educational ours is a major treatment mode for children, teens and adults that suffer from attention problems.
Caounceling of the persons family to make the dayly life as structured as possible is another important measure.
Some children are treated by central stimulating drugs, like amphetamine or ritaline.
Research projects have shown that persons suffering from ADD / ADHD do better if they attend to a well balanced diet without artificial additives and getting supplements of vitamins and minerals.
Research has chown that people suffering from ADD / ADHD often are deficit in vitamin b6, magnesium and zink, and that extra supplements of these substances has improved their condition.
According to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual IV-Text Revision (DSM-IV-TR), the following criteria must be met for a person to be diagnosed with Attention-Deficit / Hyperactivity Disorder.
Diagnosis for ADD(ADHD)
By diagnosing ADD/ADHD one uses two sets of criteria. If a patient fit into one of these sets, he gets the diagosis ADD/ADHD.
A. At least six of the following symptoms of inattention have been present for at least 6 months to a point that is disruptive and inappropriate for developmental level:
A complexof attention problems is present:
1. Often does not give close attention to details or makes careless mistakes in schoolwork, work, or other activities.
2. Often has trouble keeping attention on tasks or play activities.
3. Often does not seem to listen when spoken to directly.
4. Often does not follow instructions and fails to finish schoolwork, chores, or duties in the workplace (not due to oppositional behavior or failure to understand instructions).
5. Often has trouble organizing activities.
6. Often avoids, dislikes, or doesn't want to do things that take a lot of mental effort for a long period of time (such as schoolwork or homework).
7. Often loses things needed for tasks and activities (e.g. toys, school assignments, pencils, books, or tools).
8. Is often easily distracted.
9. Is often forgetful in daily activities.
B. Six or more of the following symptoms of hyperactivity-impulsivity have been present for at least 6 months to an extent that is disruptive and inappropriate for developmental level:
Hyperactivity
1. Often fidgets with hands or feet or squirms in seat.
2. Often gets up from seat when remaining in seat is expected.
3. Often runs about or climbs when and where it is not appropriate (adolescents or adults may feel very restless).
4. Often has trouble playing or enjoying leisure activities quietly.
5. Is often "on the go" or often acts as if "driven by a motor".
6. Often talks excessively.
Impulsivity:
1. Often blurts out answers before questions have been finished.
2. Often has trouble waiting one's turn.
3. Often interrupts or intrudes on others (e.g., butts into conversations or games).
Furthermore Some symptoms that cause impairment must be present before age 7 years.
Also some impairment from the symptoms is present in two or more settings (e.g. at school/work and at home).
There must be clear evidence of significant impairment in social, school, or work functioning.
Olso symptoms do not happen only during the course of a Pervasive Developmental Disorder, Schizophrenia, or other Psychotic Disorder and the symptoms are not better accounted for by another mental disorder (e.g. Mood Disorder, Anxiety Disorder, Dissociative Disorder, or a Personality Disorder).
Based on excatly what criteria that are present, one can make three diagnosis variants:
1. ADHD, Combined Type: if both criteria 1A and 1B are present for the past 6 months.
2. ADHD, Predominantly Inattentive Type: if criterion 1A is presentt but criterion 1B is not present for the past six months.
3. ADHD, Predominantly Hyperactive-Impulsive Type: if Criterion 1B is found but Criterion 1A has not been there for the past six months.
ICD
In the recent times one has begun to see hyperactivity and attention problems as two disorders that must be diagnosed separately, and the hyperactivity disorder is by now often called "hyperkinetic disorder".
Adults often continue to be impaired by ADHD. Adults with ADHD are diagnosed under the same criteria, including the stipulation that their symptoms must have been present prior to the age of seven. Adults face some of their greatest challenges in the areas of self-control and self-motivation, as well as executive functioning, usually having more symptoms of inattention and fewer of hyperactivity or impulsiveness than children do.
Common comorbid conditions are Oppositional Defiance Disorder . About 20% to 25% of children with ADHD meet criteria for a learning disorder. Learning disorders are more common when there are inattention symptoms.
There are some dangers in the way the criteria for ADD/ADHD are set up and used. Children that are more intelligent than the averidage or understsand more than the average, and therefore pose questions about many things in the world, easily fit into some of the criteria. If a child lives under bad condition or understands clearly that his or her living condition could be better with some defini changes, and expresses his meaning about this without being listen to, the criteria can also easily be met. Therefore the criteria surely are often used to suppress healthy behaviour i order to make a child fit into an unhealthy society.
About Huperzine A
This natural compound is drawing much attention for its effects on cognitive function, enhancing memory and treating cognitive deficits. A double blind placebo controlled trial of huperzine A supplementation in patients with cognitive deficits of Alzheimer’s type showed it is a safe and effective medicine, improving cognition, behavior, activities of daily living and mood.
Hoperzin is a alcaloid compound found in the plant Huperzia serrata. It is an organic compund containing carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen. The molecule contains three rings with shared carbon atoms between adjacent rings and with both simple and double bonds. One of the nitrogen atoms is integrated in a ring and the other is in a amino group "-NH2". The molecule have basic properties because the nitrogen atmoms can attract a proton
Basic actions
Hoperzine A is an inhibitor of the enzyme acetylcoline esterase.
It also inhibits the NMDA receptors in the brain and therefore protects tissues in the brain against glutamine induced damage.
It also has the effect of increasing the level of nerve growth factor, a peptide that stimulate nerve cells to grow branches and develop.
Medical effects
Huperzin has shown promising properties as a drug to treat disease where nerve tissue is altered to be less functional or destroyed.
Since it both protects against factors that destroy nerval tissue, and increase factors that stimulate nerve regeneration and nerve growth, it seems it can both prevent damages of such diseases and help heal allready done damages.
One of the conditions it is likely to counteract, is Alzheimer's disease. Clinical invastigations in China have produced very positive results of using this drug against Altzheimer's. It is under further study in the USA.
It may also be helpful against epilepsi.
Since the drug increases factors in the brain that stimulate growth and development, it is also likely to be effective against diseases where parts of the brain are too weakly developed. It is further likely to strengthen the brain structure so that it can better cope with and manage impulsive tendencies.
A condition where thise properties are likely to be of use is attention deficit disorder.
The drug may cause side effects in some pations like: breathing problems, tightness in the throat or chest, chest pain, skin hives, rash, itchy or swollen skin, upset stomach, diarrhea, vomiting, hyperactivity and insomnia. The reported side effects have never been of serious nature and the drug seems so far to be more safe than current medicines against alzheinerć's.
