Your Videos are pearls 💝Thanks blessings 😊💝
You are so welcome
Good morning!
And a great day to you!😊
Hello!
this was very insightful and applicable to real world daily life
Thank you
You should make a video about BDNF and other anti-inflammatory nerve growth factors. If we're already entering the rabbit hole, then why not see it through to the end?
SSRI/SNRI, altered GABA/glutamate signalling due to antidepressant treatment ultimately all translate to increased BDNF release and effects, which is in turn said to be the main mediator of treatment benefits.
Sports, environmental enrichment, psychotherapy (and all other empirically proven treatments) facilitate that aswell, and it's thought that ketamine and psilocybine act rapidly, because they likewise lead to a very fast increase in BDNF release, instead of a delayed one that ramps up over a couple of weeks starting with treatment initiation (SSRI/SNRI). Neuroplasticity is everything!
Thanks for watching the video. I mention BDNF in this video on Intermittent Fasting: th-cam.com/video/FAVQdw8Licw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ketFjIPV2fm3Q7ZA
I'm so grateful for this information!
You’re most welcome
thank you for this
You're very welcome!

You are so welcome!
50:32 now i know why i loved dextromethorphan!!
Thanks for watching
@DocSnipes thanks for making this video!!! I once took a lot of GABA and had a panic attack where i couldnt breathe. I didnt understand, but now i do
i have a vagus nerve stimulator. i have Petit mall seizures. I have noticed my seizures gets better if I drink omega 3 every day. Do you think I have some kind of deficiency? and what supplements do you think I can take? do you have any videos that addresses issues like this?
I am sorry you have seizures and I appreciate you watching the video. Your doctor is the only one who should recommend supplements
My overview about the topic is very limited, but there's some fatty acids that can theoretically have anti-seizure activity after metabolism. The one I'm specifically thinking about is arachidonic acid. When it gets metabolized to anandamide, it can increase the seizure threshold through similar mechanisms like THC.
Fatty acids in general do also get incoorporated into cell membranes. The trend is the following: saturated fats -> more rigid membranes, unsaturated ones -> more fluid-like. This can in turn alter the activity of cation (excitatory) and anion (inhibitory) channels by altering their opening/closing patterns.
When the net effect results in inhibitory signals getting enhanced, that could also play a role in anti-seizure effects.
You could try supplementing some (no more than 400mg/d - talk to your doctor beforehand if you have kidney issues) magnesium, which serves the function of acting like a signal intensity filter in NMDA ligand gated ion channels (= ionotropic glutamate receptors of the NMDA type), which could also serve to reduce overexcitation of neurons.
@@Psychx_ Thank you so much for this!!
What if you are extremely sensitive to glutamate? How to fix it?
What does your doctor say about that? Have you had a full assessment?
