shocked Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 The foods we eat, and many of our most popular psychoactive drugs, come from plants or animals. The ingredients in these plant and animal products are very similar if not identical to the neurotransmitters our brains and bodies use to function normally. This is why the contents of our diets can interact with our neurons to influence brain functioning. Gary Wenk, Ohio State University Seed magazine http://seedmagazine.com/content/print/this_is_your_brain_on_food Gary’s book - Your Brain on Food: How Chemicals Control Your Thoughts and Feelings Described in reviews as “An absolutely fascinating read” demonstrates how, everything we put into our bodies (legal and illegal) has very direct consequences on certain neurotransmitters in the brain and explains ways to influence brain cell functioning through what we consume.
