Do all those supplements claiming to be “natural Adderall” actually do anything, or are they just giving you a much-needed dose of vitamin B? That’s the question we’re attempting to answer as we continue down the rabbit hole of supplements and ADHD.
In an episode sponsored by the concept of multivitamins, Professor Kristin is covering the different types of vitamin B, what’s happening at the molecular level, how vitamin B deficiencies impact the brain and body, and ways you can increase your intake without falling for supplement scams.
Whether you’re a liver and onions type of gal, you like to graze on fistfuls of leafy greens, or you prefer to get your nutrients the old-fashioned way via vitamin gummies, increasing your vitamin B can transform your energy levels for the better, no gimmicks required.
