so today I’m going to teach you how to

build up the most important

neurotransmitter in your brain okay and

it’s called acetylcholine acetylcholine

is a neurotransmitter which means that

it’s like a hormone but it works through

the nervous system so it’s a

communication particle that creates

different effects and it’s involved in

your memory and your ability to learn

with sleep attention focus feeling alert

and your ability to be awake so you can

imagine if you’re deficient in

acetylcholine you’re going to have a lot

of issues and acetylcholine is the main

neurotransmitter of the parasympathetic

nervous system which is all about rest

and digest it’s a neurotransmitter that

works through the vagus nerve that

innervates a lot of different visceral

organs and visceral organs are all the

organs in the cavity in your stomach and

your chest and the anticholinergic drugs

like Medicaid locations to control your

bladder medications for Parkinson’s

Disease and COPD all have side effects

of a loss of memory probably because

they create a deficiency in

acetylcholine and I remember my

mother-in-law unfortunately she had

dementia and she passed away but I do

remember her being on a bladder

medication and I always wondered how

much that contributed to her dementia

but unfortunately when people get on

several medications you know you don’t

know what is causing what anymore

there’s also several conditions that you

need to be aware of that nearly always

have lowered acetylcholine autism

Alzheimer’s and Dementia Ms and

Parkinson’s disease let me go through

all the things that can increase

acetylcholine in your brain okay as far

as food goes right you want to eat foods

high in choline which is a precursor for

acetylcholine and the food that has the

most choline is egg yolks okay so this

is another reason why you should be

eating eggs I consume a lot of eggs I

probably consume three to four eggs

every single day and it’s probably a

really good thing I have been doing this

because

recently on my DNA test that I did which

I’m going to be doing a deep dive on

that to explain what that is and how you

can benefit from it but for me one big

problem is choline right even though I

consume choline I need a lot of choline

to allow that codeine to work in its

Pathways so it’s been a good thing that

I’ve been consuming eggs with choline

unknowingly for all these years but you

can also get choline from beef liver and

blueberries and it’s in a lot of other

Foods as well but egg yolks would give

you a good amount now acetylcholine also

needs

helper molecules to allow it to be

produced or synthesized and so one

helper molecule is vitamin B5 and it’s

very easy to get vitamin B5 from just

eating pretty much any food but here’s

the thing about B5 one of the most

common ways that someone becomes

deficient of E5 is from drinking alcohol

right so if someone is drinking alcohol

even several times a week they’re

usually going to be deficient in B5

which can indirectly affect that

acetylcholine you also need zinc to

build acetylcholine so if you’re

deficient in zinc that could be one

reason why you’re not producing enough

and so you get zinc from shellfish as

well as grass-fed beef magnesium is

another mineral that is needed to make

acetylcholine and you get magnesium when

you consume chlorophyll that’s in all

the leafy greens so you can get enough

magnesium if you’re having salads on a

regular basis and then you have a trace

mineral called manganese which is also

important in making acetylcholine a

couple good sources of manganese there’s

a lot of different sources but hazelnuts

macadamia nuts as well as leafy creams

but you can also get it from sea kelp

and shellfish and many different things

now another thing that’s important is

consuming enough omega-3 fatty acids

that could be in sardines that can be in

cod liver oil that can be in Salmon but

omega-3 is important as well now green

tea has a certain phytonutrient that can

help build up your levels of

acetylcholine as well so you might want

to drink some of that during the day as

far as actual choline supplements

there’s two that I recommend I wouldn’t

do both I would do either or and they’re

both very similar one is called

acetylcholine another name for that

would be CDP choline and the other one

is called Alpha GPC either one of those

could be a good supplement if you wanted

to take a supplement now believe it or

not drinking coffee can help raise

receiver choline levels getting enough

sleep because you have enough melatonin

can also build up your levels of

acetylcholine but this next point is

very interesting and surprising insulin

increases your acetylcholine now I know

you’re saying dutchberg am I supposed to

start eating all these carbs you get

insulin no all you want is a natural

amount of insulin that your body

produces when you don’t consume carbs

you see when you eat carbs over a period

of time you develop insulin resistance

and that creates a deficiency of insulin

especially in your brain this is why the

cells die because they’re not able to

get the fuel that’s dependent on that

insulin so eating more carbs okay

creates a compensation that literally

starves yourselves of insulin since

we’re on the topic of brain power if you

haven’t seen this video on the brain

that’s the next one you should check out

I put it up right here
