DopaSignal Junior was formulated using clinically relevant herbs and nootropics that support the biological roots of ADHD: dopamine deficiency, nervous system dysregulation, and poor executive function.

Key Functional Ingredients:

• Lion’s Mane Mushroom (Hericium erinaceus)
  Supports BDNF (brain-derived neurotrophic factor) for cognitive growth and healthy brain development.

• Bacopa Monnieri (50% bacosides)
  Clinically shown to improve working memory, attention, and processing speed in children.

• Gotu Kola
  Enhances circulation to the brain, promotes calm mental energy, and supports neuroplasticity.

• L-Theanine
  Increases alpha brain waves, reducing anxiety and enhancing attention and learning.

• Rhodiola Rosea
  Adaptogen that improves stress resilience and mental stamina without overstimulation.

• Passionflower, Albizia, Skullcap, Reishi
  Calm the nervous system, reduce hypersensitivity, and support emotional regulation.

• Chamomile
  Known for its gentle calming effect on the gut-brain axis and emotional reactivity.

• Piperine (Black Pepper Extract)
  Increases bioavailability of herbal compounds.

Start low, go slow. This allows the nervous system to adapt and gives parents a chance to observe positive effects without overstimulation.

🧠 Week 1: Observation Phase (Start Low)

Ages 6–8:
• Start with 0.5 mL once daily in the morning
• Use consistently for 5–7 days
• Watch for signs of improved focus, calmer transitions, and reduced emotional reactivity

Ages 9–12:
• Start with 0.5 mL once daily in the morning
• After 3 days, increase to 1 mL daily if tolerated well
• Observe for positive changes in task initiation, frustration tolerance, or school performance

Ages 13–17:
• Start with 1 mL once daily in the morning
• If your teen is highly sensitive or already on medication, consider starting with 0.5 mL for 2–3 days before increasing
• Monitor for improved attention, calmer communication, and smoother routines

➡️ Tips:
• Give on an empty stomach or at least 15–30 minutes before food
• Avoid using after 4 p.m. to prevent possible overstimulation before bed
• Track behavior changes, energy levels, and emotional tone

🔄 Ongoing Maintenance Dosing (After Week 1)

Ages 6–8:
• 1 mL daily in the morning
• Optional: Add a second 0.5–1 mL dose after school if needed for emotional regulation

Ages 9–12:
• 1 mL in the morning
• 1 mL after school or before evening transitions/homework
• Adjust based on needs—some do great on once daily, others benefit from a split dose

Ages 13–17:
• 1–2 mL daily, taken as:
– 1 mL AM + 1 mL PM
– or a full 2 mL dose in the morning if evenings are not challenging
• Use consistently for best results

➡️ Guidance:
• Always use the lowest effective dose
• If you increase, go up slowly (by 0.5 mL) every 3–5 days
• If overstimulation, emotional irritability, or GI upset occurs—pause or reduce the dose and reassess

📌 Pro Tip: Some kids benefit from a second “reset” dose after school to help wind down, reduce reactivity, and smooth transitions into evening routines or homework.

Q: Is DopaSignal Junior safe for kids?

Yes. DopaSignal Junior was specifically formulated for children and teens ages 6–17. It’s free from stimulants, caffeine, synthetic vitamins, and common allergens. It contains only gentle, research-backed herbs in appropriate dosages for growing brains and sensitive systems. The formula is alcohol-free, dye-free, sugar-free, and made with a vegetable glycerin base for safe daily use.

Q: What makes this different from prescription ADHD medications?

Prescription ADHD medications (like Adderall or Ritalin) are stimulant-based and work by increasing dopamine and norepinephrine levels rapidly. While they can be effective, they also come with potential side effects like appetite suppression, anxiety, sleep disturbances, and emotional dysregulation.

DopaSignal Junior is stimulant-free and non-habit-forming. It works by gently supporting the brain’s natural dopamine and stress regulation pathways over time, helping your child feel more focused, calm, and emotionally balanced—without the harsh crash or emotional numbing.

Q: Can I give this to my child instead of ADHD medication?

Yes—many parents use DopaSignal Junior as a natural alternative. If your child is not currently on ADHD meds or you're hesitant to start them, this can be a supportive first step. Always consult your child’s healthcare provider before stopping or replacing a prescribed medication.

Q: Can this be taken with ADHD meds or other prescriptions?

Yes. DopaSignal Junior is generally safe to take alongside stimulant medications and SSRIs, as it does not contain Mucuna, St. John’s Wort, or any known MAO inhibitors that might cause interactions. However, always check with your child’s provider or pharmacist to be safe—especially if your child is on multiple medications.

Q: Will it make my child drowsy or too mellow?

No. DopaSignal Junior is designed to support calm alertness, not sedation. While it helps reduce over-reactivity and emotional overwhelm, it won’t dull your child’s personality or make them sleepy. In fact, many kids feel more like themselves—regulated, focused, and emotionally available.

Q: How long does it take to work?

Some parents notice small changes within the first few days—especially in mood and frustration tolerance. Cognitive benefits like improved focus, task initiation, and behavioral changes typically appear after 1–3 weeks of consistent use. Because this formula works with the nervous system and brain chemistry, consistency is key.

Q: What if my child is very sensitive or has food allergies?

DopaSignal Junior is designed with sensitive systems in mind. It is:

• Gluten-free

• Dairy-free

• Soy-free

• Vegan

• Nut-free

• Sugar-free

• No artificial dyes, colors, or preservatives

The glycerin is plant-based and sweetened with monk fruit. If your child has known sensitivities to specific herbs, consult your provider before use.

Q: What does it taste like?

It has a naturally sweet, smooth flavor thanks to the vegetable glycerin, monk fruit, vanilla, and a hint of orange essential oil. Most kids take it straight from the dropper without complaint. If needed, it can be mixed into a small amount of juice or smoothie.

Q: Is it safe to take long-term?

Yes. DopaSignal Junior is formulated for long-term nervous system and cognitive support. It can be used daily for months or even years to help build resilience, support emotional development, and enhance focus during school and growth years.

Q: Can I give this to my child only on school days?

You can—but daily use is most effective. Like any supplement that supports brain chemistry and nervous system regulation, DopaSignal works best when used consistently. That said, if your child only needs help during the week, a Monday–Friday routine can still provide support.

Q: What time of day is best to give it?

The ideal time is first thing in the morning—before school or activities. For kids who struggle after school or with evening transitions, a second dose in the late afternoon can be helpful. Avoid giving it within 2–3 hours of bedtime unless your child has a history of tolerating it well later in the day.

Q: Can this be used for neurodivergent kids without an ADHD diagnosis?

Absolutely. DopaSignal Junior is supportive for kids with emotional sensitivity, sensory processing issues, anxiety, or difficulty with transitions—even without an official diagnosis. It helps bring balance to kids who feel “too much” and need a little more nervous system support.

Q: What’s the best way to get started?

We recommend starting with a low dose for the first week (see starting protocol), observing your child’s response, and slowly increasing to a maintenance dose. Consistency matters, so try to give it at the same time daily and track any changes in behavior, focus, or emotional regulation.

Q: Can I combine it with other supplements or herbs?

Yes. DopaSignal Junior pairs well with most daily multivitamins, probiotics, or omega-3s. If you’re using another herbal product that supports mood or focus, it’s best to check with your provider to avoid overlapping effects.
