Focus

Focus is a mental skill that can be affected by various factors, including genetics and nutrition. One of the genes that may influence focus is MTHFR, which is involved in the metabolism of folate and homocysteine. Folate is needed for the production of neurotransmitters such as dopamine and serotonin, which regulate mood and attention. Homocysteine is a byproduct of methionine metabolism, which can be toxic to the brain if not properly cleared. MTHFR mutations can impair the conversion of folate and homocysteine, leading to low levels of neurotransmitters and high levels of homocysteine. This can affect focus and cognitive function, as well as increase the risk of cardiovascular disease and depression. Our MTHFR product might help with your focus and attention. Our B12 product can also help lower homocysteine levels and protect the brain from oxidative stress.

Another nutrient that can help with focus and MTHFR is glutathione, which is the master antioxidant in the body. Glutathione can help detoxify homocysteine and other toxins, as well as modulate inflammation and immune response. Our Catalase-SOD-Glutathione product might also help you with focus and attention.

Our Curcumin product might help you with that as well. Indeed, curcumin can inhibit the enzyme histone deacetylase (HDAC), which regulates gene expression and epigenetics. HDAC inhibitors have been shown to improve cognitive function and neuroplasticity in animal models of Alzheimer's disease. Another spice that can help with focus and inflammation is ginger, which has anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and neuroprotective properties. Ginger can also stimulate blood circulation and enhance brain oxygenation, which can improve mental clarity and alertness. Ginger can also modulate the levels of histamine, which is a neurotransmitter that regulates wakefulness, attention, and learning. Histamine levels can be affected by allergies, infections, stress, or diet.

High histamine levels can cause symptoms such as anxiety, insomnia, irritability, or hyperactivity, while low histamine levels can cause symptoms such as fatigue, depression, brain fog, or poor memory. You might want to try our Histamine Control product. 

One of the biological factors that affects focus is the activity of two enzymes: MAO and COMT. These enzymes are involved in breaking down neurotransmitters such as dopamine and norepinephrine, which are important for alertness, motivation, and executive functions. MAO and COMT have different effects on focus depending on the situation and the individual's genetic makeup. Some people have more active MAO or COMT enzymes, which means they break down neurotransmitters faster and have lower levels of them in the brain. This can make them more prone to distraction, boredom, or fatigue, but also more adaptable to changing environments. Other people have less active MAO or COMT enzymes, which means they break down neurotransmitters slower and have higher levels of them in the brain. This can make them more focused, persistent, or resilient, but also more sensitive to stress or overstimulation. Our MAO and COMT product help overactive or underactive MAO and COMT enzymes to more regularly active.
