Dopamine, along with norepinephrine, has come to be recognized as playing a large role in attention and focus. For people with ADD/ADHD, psychostimulant medications such as Ritalin/Concerta (methylphenidate), Dexedrine (dextroamphetamine), and Adderall (a racemic mixture of amphetamine salts) are prescribed to help increase our usage of norepinephrine and dopamine.

Since neurotransmitters are manufactured in our brain from nutrients we should ingest daily from our foods and if our foods no longer supply these nutrients, it would appear that we should use nutritional supplements to supply what our diet no longer gives our body.


The amino acids which is used by our body to manufacture dopamine and norepinephrine is phenylalanine combined with co-factors such as vitamin B-6. Phenylalanine is an essential amino acid because it can not be manufactured by our body but must be ingested on a daily basis.
