Q: 

How exactly are neurotransmitters made by the consumption of Protein?

A: When proteins are broken down we get the amino acid phenylalanine, among other things. This is used to synthesize tyrosine. In the adrenal gland, tyrosine is converted to levodopa (intermediate in dopamine synthesis) by the enzyme tyrosine hydroxylase (TH). TH is also the rate-limiting enzyme (controls the rate of the chemical reaction) in the synthesis of the hormones dopamine, norepinephrine, and epinephrine. Serotonin is synthesized from the amino acid tryptophan by a short metabolic pathway consisting of two enzymes: tryptophan hydroxylase (TPH) and amino acid...


Q: 

Is there a vitamin or something you can take to help with short term memory?

A: There are several things you can do for short-term memory. Supplements aren't always the answer, but they can help based upon the root cause. If you think you might have ADHD or ADD causing your memory issues, you should consult with a doctor before changing your dietary intake. The first thing to remember is that your food you eat is the most powerful drug you consume. High-starch, high-sugar diets are horrible for short-term memory because they actually decrease your brain's access to the sugar it needs after an hour or so (thus the sleepy feeling after a "heavy meal"). Cut out sugars and processed grains, that is, white bread. Stick with whole wheat bread, and avoid pasta, potatoes, and other starches. Increase your vegetable-to-meat ratio to where the meat you...
Q: 

Does fast food affect your dreams?

The neurotransmitter in use during REM is Acetylcholine. It is made from the B-vitamin Choline and the vitamin B-5. But there are more vitamins that can make us dream more. The body can synthesis the B-vitamin Choline. But in order to do that it needs vitamin B-12, Folic acid (B-9), the amino acids Methionine and Serine. Vitamins B-12 plays a role in the activation of amino acids during protein formation. It has also...

Q: 

What Is Hydrolyzed Collagen?

A: Collagen is one of the various types of protein found in skin, bone, muscles and internal organs, and it is necessary for the proper functioning of these tissues. Hydrolyzed collagen is the product resulting from bone and cartilage that has been broken down into small components that collectively are referred to as gelatin. Bone and cartilage are first crushed or ground, defatted, then rid of their calcium content via soaking in hydrochloric acid before being soaked in sodium hydroxide to destroy the natural bonds in the collagen. Once the process is complete, a powder remains that can be reconstituted into gelatin — the same gelatin used in cooking and the making of empty capsules for taking medications. Among the health claims frequently made about the...


Q: 

What Are Tanning Pills?

A: Many have tried tanning pills in the quest for the perfect, sunless tan. Tanning without exposure to sunlight would reduce the chances developing prematurely aged skin or developing life-threatening skin cancer. The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has not approved any tanning pills as being effective. Tanning pills can also have potentially dangerous side effects. Human beings need sunlight in order to survive. For example, UVB rays, one of the ultraviolet ray types in sunlight, helps the body to produce vitamin D, an important vitamin that helps the body absorb calcium. Both UVA rays, which affect the outer layers of skin, and UVB rays, which penetrate into deeper tissues, cause tanning. These ultraviolet rays can also damage the skin and lead to the development of...
