Garden of Life Dr. Formulated Attention & Focus Kids Chewables, 60 Count

We've been using this supplement for 4 months now. My kids are not a fan of the taste (they almost refused to take it but I convinced them to give it a try for a month to see if it worked), but after seeing the change in focus across all aspects of my daughter's life (school work, sports, home life), I knew we had to continue with the supplement. My daughter even notices the difference. We tried stopping for a few weeks to see if it was really the supplement making a difference, and it was hard to watch the train wreck of inattention and dysfunction return to my daughter, and she even felt like she just couldn't focus to get her work done. We have even noticed improvements in my son as well, although not as drastic as with my daughter. My kids understand how the supplement is helping them focus and therefore deal with the less than optimal taste. If your kids can't deal with a supplement that doesn't have the best flavor, then this is not for you. My kids have found a way to make it palatable for them and they happily take it every day.

I cannot remember that last time I wrote a review. Our daughter, a preemie (1.3 oz at birth), was having trouble focusing in class. She makes good grades, but seems to drift off in class and sometimes has a hard time staying on task, especially in math. We had her evaluated and she did not have ADD or ADHD, according to them. We started giving her these pills with chocolate milk in the morning because they do taste like POOP. BUT, the effects were immediate. Last week she was able to get all the answers right on her math quiz. Two weeks ago she would have not been able to finish the quiz. It's worth a shot to try these. Just figure out a creative way to get rid of the nasty taste. My daughter knows they are helping her. This has been life changing for all of us. Thank you to whomever developed these magical pills.

I can see a difference in my 8 and 5 year old. They are still energetic but I feel that they have more self control and focus has improved. To mask the bad taste, I either mix it in with a smoothie or they love Danimals yogurts, so I make my own and put it in the blender with yogurt and some milk and they haven’t noticed it yet!

My child has been taking 2 ADHD medications (day and night) for a long time, so he is having a hard time gaining weight. We usually take a break from daily stimulants during weekends or no-school days, and he has a hard time concentrating and has huge meltdowns. I tried this supplement as a substitute for his stimulant, and it has been working, and there have been no more huge meltdowns. The taste is the only thing that needs improvement.

So, the product concept is on point, an organic supplement that helps kids focus. However, as countless others have noted, kids hate the taste. I thought I'd give it a try, but my little guy fell into the same bucket. He hated the taste and cried on the 3rd day of taking these. I tried them and I can bear them because I eat all kinds of organic supplements, but again the point here is: THESE ARE NOT FOR ME THEY ARE FOR MY KIDS. So, yeah using organic gummie worms to help him be able to clear the taste while eating them. We are going to finish what we have left, but WILL NOT BE BUYING THIS PRODUCT AGAIN. Simply put, you guy need to rethink the taste and somehow get it into a gummie form or into a tablet that kids enjoy.

Can’t say if it works or not as I just Received them today for my child. But the taste and smell is very adult like a and perfume like. If you can understanding what I’m saying it has the smell and taste of an adult nutritional vitamin, a chewing adult vitamin we as adults would take. The smell and taste as well as size I don’t think are kid friendly. The size of these are huge in person, way bigger than expected. I can’t speak on if it works and if there is any improvements because this is only my first day giving one to my child (I broke it up, and I obviously tasted it as well) terrible taste, I’m sorry. But this does not speak to the effect of the product however I will not be continuing using these or purchasing in the future.

Bueno, casi no escribo reseñas pero sé que así como yo existen más padres preocupados por la salud de sus hijos y más cuando los médicos quieren medicar, como buenos padres siempre buscaremos mejores alternativas, así que quiero decir que me encanta el resultado que estoy viendo en mi hijo de 9 años, apenas tiene 4 días con estas pastillas y desde el segundo día pude notar un mínimo cambio, pero mientras avanzan los días funciona más y más, espero seguir teniendo las mismas expectativas, lo que no me gusta a mí ni a mi hijo es el sabor, como podes ver en el video, el las mastica pero se preocupa cada que que saco el frasco con las pastillas pues el sabor es fuerte, no sabría describirlo pero la verdad que me gustaría que si pueden cambiar su sabor sería excelente! Si leíste hasta aquí, por favor regresa porque pienso hacer una actualización durante un tiempo más para decir los verdaderos cambios, quiero adjuntar que mi hijo también consume complejo B (con los miligramos más altos posibles porque tienen mayor función), Vitamina B1, Omega 3, citrato de magnesio, citrato de potasio, y empezando a cambiar su alimentación. ACTUALIZACIÓN: mi hijo lleva unos meses consumiendo este producto juntamente a los otros suplementos antes mencionados y puedo hablar solo cosas buenas de esto en conjunto a los suplementos y a su dieta, aunque su dieta no es 100% saludable si hemos mejorado mucho y he visto muchos cambios en el comportamiento y la educación de mi hijo, sus maestros enviaron a casa un resumen de sus avances en la escuela, diciendo que ha mejorado un 60% y para mí eso es un logro y con la ayuda de Dios él mejorará mucho más, quiero agregar algo muy importante que los maestros sospecharon de posible TDAH y Espectro Autista pero yo investigue y supe que dar estos suplementos sería lo mejor antes de intentar la medicación sin antes una evaluación profunda, la pediatra me sugirió una revisión del neurólogo para “confirmar” los supuestos diagnósticos, antes de ir al neurólogo me di a la tarea de investigar a profundidad los síntomas de mi hijo y me doy cuenta que sus síntomas son parecidos a los síntomas de TDAH Y ESPECTRO AUTISTA pero que muchos niños han sido diagnosticados “erróneamente” solo por tener los “mismos” síntomas según una universidad de Nueva York. Descubrí que mi hijo podría tener adenoides hipertroficas o amígdalas agrandadas, y así fue así que mi hijo tendrá una cirugía para corregir esos síntomas y mejorar mucho más ya que muchos de sus síntomas son causados por no poder dormir ni respirar de la mejor manera, espero que esto te ayude y si puedes buscar otra alternativa hazlo 🙏🏻

Our family had been having terrible struggles every afternoon because my daughter was having trouble focusing in school, and then crying when having to do homework, which she really didn't do very well. From the FIRST day we started taking these, the issue shifted. My daughter said she was able to do her schoolwork as well as the former days homework during school hours THE VERY NEXT DAY, and she said it was suddenly "easy". We're on our 2nd bottle now and the homework has not been a problem since we began. Truly grateful for this product. It's saving our sanity and relationships.

Nice

Taste and chewable tablets is bad idea 💡. Taste is very bad not even 1 my daughter and keep up. We have crushed the tab in tissue papper, make it fine powder and mix in her favorite juice, so far its been 4 days she's drinking without any complaints. But does it work? not sure no difference in the behavior + I feel her sleep is disturbed + behavior is changed but not in good sense but its just 4 days now cant really say now may be after a month of use we might review better. 1 thing I noticed. Right after taking the tab in mix juice she's sweating alot for a while not sure if thats reaction or its normal. This bad we were afraid but she's just fine no signs of illness so far just the sweating may be the wild berries are to hot for the body. Everyone in the comments talk about taste but only few people talk about functionality and purpose served. Hope it helps. Good luck 👍
