ADHD amp How Anyone Can Improve Their Focus
>> YOUR LINK HERE: ___ http://youtube.com/watch?v=hFL6qRIJZ_Y
In this episode, I discuss ADHD (Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder): what it is, the common myths, and the biology and psychology of ADHD. • I discuss both behavioral and pharmacologic treatments for ADHD, and brain-machine interface tools. I also discuss behavioral training protocols that can improve focus in people with ADHD and those without ADHD, and for people of different ages. I discuss the role of dopamine in coordinating 'default-mode' and 'task-related' neural networks, attentional blinks (lapses of attention) and how to overcome them, and the role of actual blinks in time perception and attention. Finally, I review some of the prescription and over-the-counter compounds for increasing focus such as Adderall, Ritalin, Modafinil and Armodafinil, the racetams, Alpha-GPC and phosphatidylserine and the role of diet for managing ADHD (and the controversies of diet for ADHD). • The role of cell phones/technology in ADHD and ADHD-like challenges with focus are also discussed. Throughout, both basic science and clinical scenarios, as well as applicable tools and resources are covered. • #HubermanLab • Thank you to our sponsors: • ROKA - https://www.roka.com/huberman • Helix Sleep - https://www.helixsleep.com/huberman • Supplements from Thorne: • http://www.thorne.com/u/huberman • Support Research in the Huberman Lab at Stanford: • https://hubermanlab.stanford.edu/giving • Social Website • Instagram: / hubermanlab • Twitter: / hubermanlab • Facebook: / hubermanlab • TikTok: / hubermanlab • LinkedIn: / andrew-huberman • Website: https://hubermanlab.com • Newsletter: https://hubermanlab.com/neural-network • Links: • Review of Compounds for ADHD, Smart Drugs Focus - https://www.fbscience.com/Landmark/ar... • Review of Atypical Compounds for ADHD - https://www.hindawi.com/journals/np/2... • Study of Focus Protocol In ADHD Non-ADHD Children - https://www.mdpi.com/1660-4601/17/13/... • Timestamps: • 00:00:00 Introduction Note About Diagnosis • 00:03:27 Sponsors • 00:07:56 ADHD vs. ADD: Genetics, IQ, Rates in Kids Adults • 00:13:00 Attention Focus, Impulse Control • 00:14:57 Hyper-focus • 00:16:45 Time Perception • 00:18:25 The Pile System • 00:20:00 Working Memory • 00:24:10 Hyper-Focus Dopamine • 00:26:40 Neural Circuits In ADHD: Default Mode Network Task-Related Networks • 00:32:57 Low Dopamine in ADHD Stimulant Use Abuse • 00:37:10 Sugar, Ritalin, Adderall, Modafinil Armodafinil • 00:47:00 Non-Prescribed Adderall, Caffeine, Nicotine • 00:49:18 How Stimulants “Teach” the Brains of ADHD Children to Focus • 00:52:00 When To Medicate: A Highly Informed (Anecdotal) Case Study • 00:56:35 Elimination Diets Allergies In ADHD • 01:04:46 Omega-3 Fatty Acids: EPAs DHAs • 01:07:00 Modulation vs Mediation of Biological Processes • 01:10:50 Attentional Blinks • 01:16:56 Open Monitoring 17 minute Focus Enhancement • 01:22:50 Blinking, Dopamine Time Perception; Focus Training • 01:30:10 Reverberatory Neural Physical Activity • 01:33:40 Adderall, Ritalin Blink Frequency • 01:35:00 Cannabis • 01:37:30 Interoceptive Awareness • 01:41:15 Ritalin, Adderall, Modafinil, Armodafinil; Smart Drugs Caffeine: Dangers • 01:48:05 DHA Fatty Acids, Phosphatidylserine • 01:50:54 Ginko Biloba • 01:51:45 Modafinil Armodafanil: Dopamine Action Orexin • 01:56:19 Acetylcholine: Circuits Underlying Focus; Alpha-GPC • 01:59:04 L-Tyrosine, (PEA) Phenylethylamine • 02:01:23 Racetams, Noopept • 02:05:15 Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation; Combining Technology Pharmacology • 02:09:14 Smart Phones ADHD Sub-Clinical Focus Issues In Adults Kids • 02:14:30 Synthesis/Summary • 02:16:10 Support for Podcast Research, Supplement Resources • The Huberman Lab Podcast is for general informational purposes only and does not constitute the practice of medicine, nursing or other professional health care services, including the giving of medical advice, and no doctor/patient relationship is formed.
