so today we’re going to talk about how

to increase attention span and focus

okay then I’m not just talking about if

someone’s diagnosed with ADHD or a DD

but just in general how to improve your

attention span your focus your

concentration on a physical level okay

there’s a part of the brain called the

limbic system and part of the limbic

system you have this structure called

the hippocampus you have another

structure in the limbic system called

the amygdala so the limbic system and

they don’t know exactly what it’s what

it does but they do know it as something

to do with emotions behavior and memory

okay okay po campus has to do with

memory focus and concentration so the

amygdala is similar to your adrenal

glands but in the brain so it deals with

stress and specifically fear and then we

have a connecting structure between the

hippocampus and the amygdala called the

mammillary bodies and as a side note in

one study that I saw with children with

ADHD there was an enlarged hippocampus

in a higher percentage of the children

so probably what’s happening is there’s

a compensation and that that structure

is having to work harder so this is what

you need to know the limbic system is

very sensitive to vitamin b1

deficiencies and there’s even a

condition called wernicki Korsakoff

syndrome involving low amounts of B one

in the mammillary bodies this is usually

caused by alcohol because alcohol

depletes your b1 so take a while guess

what died I’m gonna recommend for

increasing your attention span the focus

it’s something that you’ve probably

never heard of before

it’s called healthy keto and intimate of

fasting surprise now why would you want

to do healthy keto well number one it’s

low carbohydrate it’s low refined

carbohydrate it’s no sugar

okay so right there you’re gonna stop

the depletion of b1 you’re also going to

increase oxygen why because high

carbohydrate diets especially sugar and

definitely alcohol will deplete your

oxygen

and guess what the limbic system has the

heaviest demand for oxygen so basically

you’re creating this hypoxic or oxygen

starved environment where you create all

sorts of damage within this structure

now when you have this syndrome you have

a hard time creating new memories now

why is it a minute fasting recommended

if you have a problem with your limbic

system well because in a minute fasting

is like dumping miracle-gro on the brain

it actually causes regrowing of your

nerve cells but not of the entire brain

only specific parts of the brain and it

just so happens the limbic system is one

of those systems that can actually

regenerate within a minute fasting so

that’s exciting so if you’re starting to

have memory problems and focus problems

potentially this can be reversed but

it’s not just about taking vitamin b1

it’s about getting your diet straight

now

I don’t even recommend taking b1 unless

you’re willing to change your diet get

off the sugar do in a minute fasting

then with that you take the b1 I

recommend nutritional yeast as one of

the best sources I don’t recommend

taking a synthetic version find a

natural version and then you’re going to

start seeing gradual improvements in

your cognitive function alright thanks
