Both Vayarin and Zoom were discontinued. We re-formulated this effective, natural ADHD supplement with the same ingredients as Zoom and Vayarin.
Recommended Dosage:Â 2 capsules per day or as directed by health care provider.
Capsules can be opened and sprinkled on food.
Remember, Zoomind is not a drug, so you won’t see effects instantly. Because Zoomind is a key building block, it takes time for the blocks to build up in your child’s brain. Zoomind can take up to 90 days to build up to the right level based on your child’s unique system, though some report a change as soon as 14 days.
If your child is currently taking ADHD drugs, talk to your provider about whether Zoomind is right for your child. No interactions with ADHD medications have been reported.
In a double blind placebo-controlled study, Vayarin® (same ingredients as Zoomind and Zoom) has been clinically shown to help reduce restlessness, hyperactivity, impulsivity, and inattention.
In a study with parents and teachers of ADHD children, Vayarin® (same ingredients as Zoomind) has also been shown to improve quality of life.
Results have been published in peer-reviewed journals like the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition and European Psychiatry.
The adverse events of Vayarin® were evaluated in a randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled study of 15 weeks followed by an open label extension of an additional 15 weeks [38].
Adverse events reported during the course of the double-blind phase (table 2): 12 participants from the Vayarin® group and 5 participants from the placebo group were classified by the study physicians as suffering from treatment related, or probably related, adverse events (13 and 5 adverse events, respectively). There were no significant differences between the study groups in either the incidence or number of adverse events recorded (P = 0.848 and P = 0.982, respectively).
Adverse events reported during the course of the open-label extension: 5 participants reported 7 adverse events that were classified by the study physicians as related or probably related to the study treatment.
Zoomind, natural ADHD supplement capsules do not contain sugar, lactose, yeast, or gluten.

CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
Mechanism Of Action
Omega-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA) have an important role in brain and central nervous system development and functioning. Decreased omega-3 fatty acids levels, mainly DHA and EPA, are associated with the occurrence of psychiatric, neurodegenerative, and other neurodevelopmental disorders such as dyspraxia, dyslexia, autism, peroxisomal disorders5, Alzheimer’s disease6, and ADHD3, Administration of phosphatidylserine {PS} enriched with omega-3 fatty acids was found to significantly increase DHA level in rat brains.
While the exact mechanism by which Vayarin® exerts its effects is not fully understood, PS present in the mammalian nervous system, which is characterized by its substantial levels of omega-3 fatty acids, has been implicated in numerous membrane related functions, such as maintaining the integrity of cell membranes, cell excitability, cell-to-cell recognition and communication8. PS has been found to regulate key proteins in neuronal membranes, including sodium/calcium ATPase9 and protein kinase C10 which undertake crucial functions in diverse signal transduction pathways. Similarly, PS interacts with Raf-1 protein kinase to promote a cascade of reactions that are believed to be involved in cell survival. Additionally, PS has been found to influence neurotransmitter activity, such as the release of acetylcholine, dopamine and noradrenaline and to increase brain glucose levels.
