That comment spoke volumes to me. "We don't want to encourage people to take supplements because theoretically anything that increases GABA, Glutamate, Serotonin etc because that system is so delicate that even small changes make a difference in the way our body functions and can easily throw the system even further out of whack so it's better to look at what's causing the imbalances Eg. Chronic stress etc."
Replace supplements with antidepressants and after 31 years of chemical intervention and dependency, I would show that statement to anyone thinking of using a chemical crutch first. Pity that wasn't taught to psychiatrists and doctors before they hastily get their prescription pad out.

Thank you. I have neurofibromatosis, TBI due to brain tumor removal surgery as a child, and am 45 with a neurology appointment in 6 hours and I am always teaching the specialists from everything I learn from all of you on here and I have been researching NF since I was around 12-13 years old at the library from the books medical students couldn't even check out, then onto college in 1999 and studying the books there and borrowing from other universities as well.

When I listened to this I heard sooo much that reflects some of the health issues I’ve been having. I’d already researched and tried a lot of these supplements over the last two years but the way you explained it made it much easier to understand and apply. It may help to understand what’s going on in my body and how to get myself back into balance. Thank you for making this video.

Can you please explain how to get out of benzo medications and handle withdrawal symptoms, without damaging the brain nerve ?

[timarmstrong]

This is an amazing video, thank you so much! My sister was taking gabapentin for many years. It then started making her suicidal as each dose wears off so it's extremely difficult for her to discontinue use even with tapering down. She's tried antidepressants without any success, this makes me hopeful that ketmine may assist her in discontinuation.

How do we find out why certain neurotransmitters are out of whack. It seems like experimenting at small doses of different supplements is the only way to figure it out through trial and error. Your explanations are great, thank you. It's shame not all doctors are as well spoken as you.

15:15 You forgot Taurine necessary for glutamic acid decarboxylase required for the GABA-glutamine cycle

[philliphedges]
