I've had a memory problem most of my life. I've found a few things that have helped my memory, as well as my mental cognition, not to mention all the customers that tell me how much they help their memory.
You can try Ginkgo Biloba, Acetyl L-Carnitine, Phosphatidylserine, Fish Oil, Vinpocetine, Huperzine A, Bacopa Monnieri (or Monniera), or Alpha-GPC. Those are the most popular products for memory and brain support that help a LOT of different people.
Aside from pills, you can always do mental exercises, too. Playing games (like the children's game "Memory") or using memory tricks (mnemonic devices, etc) can also help to work the pathways in your brain that are responsible for memory.
Self Hypnosis is the best way. You can buy a book and learn yourself or get a boost and go see a Hypnotherapist in your area.
It will improve your concentration.
Good health through exercise and nutrition plus lots of practice. Ginkgo biloba won't hurt, either.
There was a discussion about this on a yahoo message board recently, but I didn't pay attention (no pun intended). Go to Yahoo Groups and search for Autism Mercury. Their board has open messages, so you should be able to search for the thread on concentration and focus and see what they had to say. Hope that helps.
Fish oil and exercise. You can do as many mental exercises as possible but without exercise, you won't get very far. Brain and body are connected.
Here's are Two Free tricks, try these out.
It will help you focus and it doesn't cost a dime.
Energy Technique #1: "The Water Hack."
This one is simple, but very effective. We all know that we must drink lots of water, at least a half gallon to a gallon a day, or more as needed. This keeps the body hydrated and mobilized.
What is not known is the secret that makes sports drinks so effective:
Sugar and sea salt.
Sports drinks such as ?g*torade? are really nothing more than water, sugar, and salt.
Our bodies are made of water, yes, we also need sugar and salt to stay alive (and FEEL alive) as well.
So mix a small pinch of store bought organic sea salt with water.
Do not use table salt or ground salt, it lacks the nutrients that sea salt has.
This will replenish your bodies' electrolytes while hydrating you.
Then add a tiny drop of honey, or a tiny pinch of organic raw sugar into your drinking water.
Do NOT use white table sugar and Do NOT use chemical sweeteners or pseudo-natural sweeteners.
The point of this is NOT to sweeten the water with just any sweetener.
The point is to add a trace dose of natural sugars to both the salt and the water in order to boost your energy levels quickly.
Chemical sweeteners will never, ever achieve this.
Do not overdo the sea salt or sugar. You only need a little bit.
Then drink the lightly sea-salted and lightly (natural) sugared water, all day.
Voila! Inexpensive energy hack. Now Notice how you feel
I also recommend high doses of pure organic hot-brewed green tea which you can put in your coffee maker.
Another trick, ultradian sprints (more about what these are at the link) and a few other hyper-focus techniques that do not cost anything to utilize.
And they do NOT involve caffeine or prescription drugs.
