hi guys dr. Berg here in this video I

want to talk about this very interesting

thing called dopamine dopamine is a

neurotransmitter which is a hormone like

communication or message that travels

through the nervous system versus

hormones are communications that travel

through the blood and this

neurotransmitter has the effect of

giving you pleasure ok so it’s a

pleasure neurotransmitter does other

things that are involved with reward and

even motion so if you have a problem

with dopamine deficiencies you might

have resting tremors in Parkinson’s

which is a different thing but mainly

pleasure it’s a feel-good hormone it

also gives you that vitality so if you

could imagine not that you ever took

cocaine but the sensation of taking

cocaine what you would feel like this

heightened pleasure you know ability of

the conquer everything it’s only because

cocaine and other drugs stimulate

dopamine so the actual physical feeling

that you have is coming from dopamine

not really the drug the drug is only the

trigger that creates more dopamine in

the body so my thought is why can’t we

just increase make sure this is high

naturally right so if you’re deficient

in dopamine you lack motivation you lack

that drive you become fatigued you kind

of lose your goals addictions very

addictive personality mood issues

anxiety depression resting tremor things

like that so you can see that this is a

very popular neurotransmitter that

people are trying to increase by doing a

lot of things especially you know drugs

the causes of a dopamine deficiency

would be excessive caffeine can deplete

it but if you it’s interesting because

caffeine will initially make you feel

good but if you take too much over time

it kind of decreases the dopamine effect

alcohol will decrease dopamine certain

drugs cocaine all those type of drugs

and even all how the psyche drugs Prozac

Paxil

wellbutrin all of those do increase

Dilton a

so over time it depletes dopamine so

it’s a trick because it’s you bring it

up and Springs down same thing with like

drugs if you’re addicted to drugs you’re

going to deplete your dopamine reserves

and it we’re caused a necessity to take

more and more more drug over time

insulin sugar will deplete dopamine

stress will deplete dopamine cortisol

from the adrenal will deplete dopamine

low stomach acids if you don’t have

enough stomach acid you can’t digest

protein in general so you start

developing a problem with making

neurotransmitters in general so you’ll

be deficient in a lot of different

transmitters you know transmitters so

the point is how do you know if you’re

deficient in semuc acids well number one

do you have heartburn do you have acid

reflux do you get indigestion that would

mean that you’re probably deficient in

stomach acids as you age you need more

stomach acid so just by adding website

of vinegar or betaine how to chloride

you can increase your neurotransmitter

reserve okay then we have adrenal stress

the adrenal gland the inside of the

adrenal gland makes dopamine so if your

drina’s are burnt out or exhausted

you’re not going to make the level of

doping so chronic stress you know all

these things deplete your

neurotransmitters not just dopamine

deficiencies but all the

neurotransmitter deficiencies so here’s

some things that you can do of course

don’t consume as much caffeine or

alcohol get off the drugs get off the

sugar cut the stress down increase the

acid improve the adrenal but also here’s

nutrient Lives you can take tyrosine

that’s a natural amino acid that as a

precursor to dopamine you can take elfia

9 which is a precursor to dopamine it

can help build it up it’s a natural

amino acid vitamin D getting a lot of

Sun will help recharge and build up

dopamine reserves vitamin b6 + b5 are

two other additional B vitamins that are

necessary in making this

neurotransmitter of course and a lot of

the other videos I talked about you know

all these things will deplete these

vitamins too so

so you may not need these if you stop

taking these right here okay exercise

will also increase dopamine so as you

can see there are things that you can do

about this so I just want to bring your

awareness up that there is a hormone

behind this and if you have any of these

symptoms you might want to do some of

these actions okay thanks for watching
