Fred Von Stieff — Brain in Balance / Benzos, GABA Information

Neuroscience is a deeply complex area of medicine and research, we know very little about the brain, it's why brain surgeons get paid the big bucks.

But in this thread, we have listed all the main ingredients so that people can try different things for themselves and see what works. What works for one person might not work for another.

The brain regulates its chemistry so it's not as simple as just taking this for that, we know what the constituents are: Glutamate, GABA, Sodium and Potassium (to name the main ones) and we know that too much of one will prompt the production of another to compensate.

This type of system is said to have emergent complexity. What results from these core constituents is more than the sum of the parts and therefore cannot be reduced to simply eating this kind of food or cutting out that type of food. It is rather a complex relationship that are arrived at from an initial condition, like a flock of birds: separation, alignment, cohesion.

The videos you posted are helpful, the guy @ SynAmnesia over here: http://www.bluelight.org/vb/threads/351691-Taking-both-L-Glutamine-amp-GABA sums it up nicely with the latest research. Now you just have to try out different things and see what works for you. Report back and other people can try it.
