“I published a paper on how vitamin D regulates serotonin and how this may be relevant for autism since serotonin acts as a brain morphogen during early brain development shaping the structure and wiring of the brain.”

“Serotonin acts as a brain morphogen during early brain development and it shapes the structure and wiring of the developing brain. Low brain serotonin during development has also been linked to autism.”

“It is known that exercise (both aerobic and non-aerobic) causes branched chain amino acids to be taken up into muscle cells. This alleviates competition with tryptophan for transport into the brain thus allowing tryptophan to be converted into serotonin.”

“Here's just a few of the topics Joe and Rhonda discussed this time around: The endorphin system. Vitamin D controls serotonin in brain and gut. Role of vitamin D and serotonin in autism.”

“The researchers found that exposure to the dye when the mice were young heightened the animals' susceptibility to colitis (a type of inflammatory bowel disease) later in life. Mice that developed colitis had higher gut serotonin levels and impaired gut barrier function.”

“00:20:11 - Breast milk stem cells may be incorporated into babies to help establish organs like the liver, kidneys, pancreas, and brain. Study. 00:29:00 - Changes in estrogen levels and serotonin production after pregnancy associated with postpartum depression.”

“There have been multiple studies that have now found psilocybin appears to have a positive effect on well-being and improve symptoms of depression possibly through its effects on the serotonin receptor.”

“Psilocybin, the active ingredient in "magic" mushrooms, is gaining attention for its potential to treat depression. Traditional treatments like selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) have been widely used for years, but they carry many risks.”

“FTA: > Female sex hormones have a strong effect on the psyche. This has been confirmed by numerous scientific studies and by phenomena such as the "baby blues", a bout of low mood following childbirth, or recurrent mood swings that occur prior to menstruation. However the male sex hormone testosterone also affects our mood and emotions, as well as our libido - and in a positive way.”

“Multiple mechanisms may be responsible for the anti-anxiety effects of exercise. For example, high-intensity exercise promotes the production of lactate, a byproduct of glucose metabolism that participates in the production of neurotransmitters, such as norepinephrine and serotonin.”
