DL-Phenylalanine capsules

From the Manufacturer:
DLPA (DL-Phenylalanine) contains two forms of the amino acid phenylalanine. The "D" form is synthetically made to block a nervous system enzyme that amplifies pain signals. The "L" form is a natural substance found in protein-rich foods that bolsters the mood-elevating chemicals in the brain, such as dopamine and nor epinephrine. These two elements combined help to quickly relieve minor depression and physical discomforts. DLPA appears to
be most effective when combined with other natural antidepressants, such as St. John's Wart, raising both nor epinephrine and serotonin. DLPA can also help to relieve certain types of chronic pain, including muscle aches and persistent arthritis-related pain.

good one
by sumathi


I am the mother of 3 children and also working part time so my schedules are fixed and little busy so I always need some extra energy which boosts me and that is why I tried this product and I am quite satisfied with these pills. I think any one who need the relief from the stress and need some energy must go for it.



Very nice product
by Dave


Basically with Attend, you are getting the same thing as Focus Factor, but it is a little cheaper. I use these "brain power" pills when I know I am going to have a long and stressful day. I wouldn't recommend using them every day because, it will run you around $80/month.
I highly recommend these to anyone who needs them for the now-and-then occasion, like interviews, taking exams, studying, and performing boring work tasks. I would also recommend that you use it a few times on days where you don't need it, just in case you don't respond well to the supplement.



Don't want prescriptions? Try Attend
by Gordy


Minor manic depression has a history in my family, as well as ADHD. Being a student of Psychology, I tend to view treatments with prescription drugs as a sort of last resort/extreme case scenario. I wanted to give myself a boost without all the dangers and pitfalls of the other drugs. I only would have minor periods of down moods, and didn't want to go overboard. I was recommended Attend by Vaxa International by a close friend of mine who deals with more "natural" solutions (I should note that this isn't a completely natural product).

Attend claims that it uses DL-Phenylaline to minimize pain and elevate moods by targeting brain chemicals such as dopamine and epinephrine. They recommend combining it with other antidepressants (such as St. John's Wort). Together it will decrease physical pain (muscle aches and arthritis for example) and possibly depression.

I used Attend for about 6 months, mostly during winter because that is when my mild depression really kicks in. I took 2 capsules in the morning and 2 in the afternoon as directions indicated. I found that the effectiveness of Attend was pretty good, and the results were fast - roughly about an hour before I felt an extra bounce in my step. I had more energy, and I didn't feel like just being a sloth, moping about the house. I used it in conjunction with St. John's Wort as recommended - I took 1 pill of that a day.

Overall, I would highly recommend Attend as it definitely helped ease the pain of winter months for me and didn't leave me with any adverse side effects. The price is slightly expensive, but if you find it at a major chain - you can easily get for <$30 for 60 capsules.

This is a great product which I have been using for over a month now. I can't say enough about it. It has really boosted my energy levels to a new high. I highly recommend it.



Great Product for ADD/ADHD
by Brenna


This was a surprise repeat seller at our health food store. This price is on the higher side, but people love it. Product has amino acids and homeopathic ingredients, so no stimulants or scary side effects like the prescription. I had adults and kids that noticed a difference within a couple weeks for concentration and hyperactivity. Definitely recommend!
