Ginkgo Biloba has long been touted as a great memory aid and mind enhancer. It comes from the bark of the tree of the same name, which just happens to be the oldest living tree on earth! I've been taking it for about a year now and noticed results after about two weeks. Also, there were not side effects that I noticed. You can Google it for more info, and it is available at anyplace they sell vitamins or herbal supplements. The cost is not bad: about $8-10 for a month supply.
There are so many different natural remedies out there for these conditions. My advice to you is to go visit a homeopathist or get a homeopathy book to self diagnose. Homeopathists prescribe remedies for specific symptoms rather than conditions, so it is best to really talk to someone one on one or to do some research.
5-HTP (l-5-Hydroxytryptophan) is an intermediate in the natural conversion of the essential amino acid, tryptophan, to serotonin. Clinical studies have shown that 5-HTP increases the amount and availability of serotonin produced by the body. Increased brain serotonin levels may produce positive effects on emotional well-being, appetite regulation, melatonin production and maintaining a healthy sleep cycle.
I know a couple of spices with thermogenic properties (they speed up your metabolism for a while)
Mustard- dip you crudites in mustard instead Ginger- good in soups and tea, hot or iced etc
cayenne pepper and chilli pepper, add to savoury meals, 1/2 tsp per serving isn't too spicy
Green tea AND white tea
cinnamon is also a metabolism booster
