azoth Advanced Strength Focus Supplement & Nootropic Brain Booster - #1 Rated for Extreme Focus, Attention & Concentration (High Potency 15 Cap Brain Supplement Pills w/TeaCrine, Dynamine, Zynamite)

Saddle up, it’s going to be a long one. I have unmedicated adult ADHD. The most current research points to a lack of dopamine receptors or a problem of dopamine uptake between the neurons as the primary culprit in the diminished executive functioning of the pre-frontal cortex. This is important to realize, because one of my personal symptoms throughout my life has been to unconsciously but habitually utilize dopamine releasing substances and techniques to compensate for this lack. This has most often shown up as binge eating, over eating, stress eating etc. As a teen and child I was morbidly obese. In my early adulthood with great effort I lost over 100 pounds and have largely kept it off for near 20 years. However, food is still my love, my enemy and my addiction. I now understand the bio-chemical reasons I was driven to indulge. The reason I am explaining this in a review is important as it relates to the way that Total Focus has been working for me. On to the review... I am vegan, and live a fairly clean and totally caffeine free lifestyle. I was nervous about taking a supplement with caffeine, but as my daughter has ADHD and I am looking for a natural alternative for her, I determined I must try it on myself first. Upon taking my first pill I did not experience any rush or burst of energy. I didn’t notice much at all that morning until I got to work. I noticed that, in areas where I always tended to rush and hurry to get work done, often creating a result that was not as good as it could be, I was moving slower. I wasn’t consciously doing it, I noticed about halfway through the day that I was moving more methodically and taking my time. I was able to not feel so hurried, I was more relaxed, and more able to focus on the task at hand instead of hurrying to the next thing. My brain was still monkeying around, jumping from thought to thought as usual, but everything moved a little slower and I felt more in control of my emotions. But the most remarkable unintended side effect has been the loss of the constant nagging desire to eat eat eat. Food and thoughts about food dominate my life. It turns out it was less about the addiction, and more about the neurochemical need to eat salty, sugary, fatty foods so my brain could get the dopamine if needed so desperately. There must be something in this cocktail of Total Focus that is causing changes in my neural functions. That is the only thing I can assume, because that change was instant and dramatic. This weekend my partner and I went camping, which is usually a junk food extravaganza. He kept putting sweets and chips in my face and I would look at it, imagine eating it, and found no pleasure or desire there so I would simply say “no thank you”. I cannot begin to tell you what that freedom feels like to me, as I have been abusing food since the age of four or five. On one pill, I find calmness where there was mania and rushing before, a tiny bit more focus on a singular task, and loss of desire to overeat/ binge eat. I would not call it appetite suppressing like other stimulant nootropics, just that you are able to listen to your own cues better. On two pills, I had the unpleasant side effect of jitteriness. But with a seriously enhanced ability to focus. Like, disturbingly so. For someone who has always been a major multitasker, this would take some getting used to, because when performing multiple tasks at once as usual, I am making a lot of mistakes. I couldn’t, for example, take a walk and watch a YouTube video (which is something I do many times a week). I literally had to stop and sit down in the grass because it felt dangerous to walk bc the video was capturing my attention so closely. I was also missing things when examining and conversing with my patients at the same time. So I will have to alter my work patterns if I continue to take the supplement. These results are likely not going to carry over to someone who is neurotypical, so this review is only for people with ADHD or executive functioning disorders. I have never taken amphetamines, so I cannot say Total Focus is a good alternative. But if you suffer from mild symptoms of ADHD (regulating emotions and impulses, managing your time, holding focus, impatience, risk taking and pleasure seeking behaviors) this is a safe product to try out! I will definitely keep using Total Focus and may also consider trying their other nootropic as well. Good luck on your journey!

I’ve used lots of different nootropics in the past. They worked but cost MUCH more than I paid for Total Focus. I get the same results with Total Focus. I am a very busy person with responsibilities that have to be met even if I don’t feel quite on top of my game. I have ADD and this helps me focus on the task at hand. Really makes a difference. And my energy level is great! Just a bonus to get me through my day. Great product.

I have been looking for a product to help with my focus issues and my low energy and this product did not disappoint! I am almost finished with my first bottle and I’m very happy with the results that I’m getting. I have more energy and I’m definitely more focused and productive when I take this. I started with 1 pill at a time but started taking 2 at once and it’s made a big difference.The pills are easy to swallow and don’t have much taste to me. You can definitely tell when they kick in. I’m ordering my next bottle now because I don’t want to run out. This stuff has been a lifesaver with my busy schedule lately! If you need more energy and focus you should definitely give this a try.

I first tried the Zynamite and thought that it possibly had potential, but it was lacking in the "energy" department. I noticed that, possibly, I had a LITTLE bit more focus (placebo effect?), but no more energy than I had without it. So, I thought that this "Total Focus" would be the Answer! I tried it for seven days in the AM before I finally had to admit to myself that there was not a discernible difference between the two. I am very disenchanted with these products, and, even more so, all the trumped up hype in the description of these products. How can this possibly be "The #1 Rated Brain Supplement Nootropic That Works Fast!"???

The product seems to work by being a catechol-O-methyltransferase inhibitor. This in turn makes catecholamines (epinephrine, norepinephrine, and dopamine) more bioavailable. At a single dose ( one pill) I didn't find there to be a big noticable difference. However taking two pills at once I found there to be a noticable effect on mood and performance. Maybe the product would work better with a higher dose of caffeine or taken alongside a hefty dose of tyrosine. I have given the product 3 stars. Not because it doesn't work but because at the dose I would need to take it at (2 pills at a time) it isn't super cost effective.
