Hi David. Greetings from Brazil. First I would like to thank you for your site, your content is very good.
I would like to know if there is any supplement that causes a similar effect to Ritalin? I saw that it acts directly on dopamine, so would “L-Dopa (Mucuna Pruriens)” be a good substitute for Ritalin?
Fabio, Ritalin is a dopamine reuptake inhibitor. It does not “make” dopamine but rather the way dopamine is used in specific regions of your brain.
The only supplement that works similar to Ritalin but is not a direct “substitute” is Saffron.
L-DOPA is a direct precursor to the synthesis of dopamine so it increases dopamine levels in your brain.

I know some things work differently for different people, etc. But in general, what do you think are the 3 best from your list, for long-term brain health, cognition, focus etc.? Not counting the basic vitamins (letters, zinc, mag) or the racetams.
Tyler, there isn’t a “best”. You have covered 3 distinct categories of brain health and cognition: long-term brain health, cognition and focus.
I suggest you do some searching through the articles here on Nootropics Expert. And you’ll find what you are looking for.
Hi David, thank you for your website, youtube videos and free advise to help people.
I have had dopamine deficiency all my life. I have taken more supplements and medicines than I can count.
Last suplement I took was DL Phenilalanine. Was taking 1500mg a day for two weeks and didn´t feel anything at all. Isn´t that high enough of a dose as to notice an effect?
My next supplement will be coming tomorrow 5g of Maca capsules. Hope it will do something.
Ray, what type of “feeling” are you looking for? And have you tried using L-Tyrosine to increase dopamine?
Hi David:
I´d like to feel motivated, to feel that activities I used to enjoy make sense again. At the moment most of my perceptions during the day feel either like a numbness or negativity (paired with anger sometimes) that won´t go away. Some people have define this as low dopaminergic tone or low endorphinic tone. I fixed the anger feelings with a very small dose of escitalopram (2.5mg) but the lack of motivation and sweet cravings still there.
Tried Tyrosine once (500mg) but didn´t feel it lifted my mood. Tramadol on the other hand (100mg) made me feel normal and positive first day, half of that second day and by the third day it look like lost the effectiveness on mood just the calm anti-anxiety effect remained. I don´t want to use synthetic opioids anyways so don´t take Tramadol anymore. (Too high risk of dependency, tolerance and side effects) Trying to find some nootropic healthier alternatives instead.
Thanks
