B3, tryptophan/SSRI sensitivity, and glutamate » francesco

> The multivitaminic I'm taking should have B3. Isn't Niacin another name for B3 ?

Yes. Larry will say niacinamide is the preferrable form, but niacin is better than no.

> Thanks DSCH. Is it 'normal' to have that hunger after just 500mg of Tyrosine ?

I don't know. I don't recall that happening to me. I'm not sure if there's anything interesting to take from that or not.

Your great senstivity to both tryptophan and several of the SSRIs still makes me think of terms of what Amen found for temporal lobe dysfunctions. Have you taken his test lately?

> Anyway, he suggested me enthusiastically the combination of L-glutammate and ginko (and he seemed to know what he was talking about ;-). Have you ever taken l-glutammate ?

Glutmate is the chief excitory neurotransmitter. It is also strangely enough the precursor to GABA, the chief inhibitory neurotransmitter.

I have taken protein drinks that had glutamate, but never glutamate alone.
