What Nutrient Deficiency Causes Anxiety? The Two Nutrients Almost Everyone With An Anxiety Disorder is Deficient In

Assuming this is Clinical Anxiety and not just your run-of-the-day Stress-during-Work or minor stress due to a Recent Permeable Conflict - there are a couple specific nutrients that nearly everyone with an Anxiety disorder has been found to be deficient in..you've probably heard of the First one, but the second one is a little more obscure but is gaining tons of recognition in human pilot studies and in active regional studies (such as in other countries where supplementation is studied in certain paradigms).

So...

Which Nutrients are Missing in People With Anxiety Issues?

1. Magnesium (flavored, patented liquid form here)                                     
2. L-Lysine (natural, vegetable capsule form here)

   

Additionally, L-Theanine, though not absolutely necessary, can make a great add-on to the above two sups.

Supplementing with these two/Three Sups is expected to help the following disorders/issues. (numbers are magnesium references and "L" and number are lysine reference/s...

• Generalized Anxiety (1) (2) (3) [L1] [L2]
• Social Anxiety (4) (5) [L3]
• Restlessness  (6) (7) [L4]
• Delirium (8) (9) [L5]
• Fast Heart Rate (10) (11) [L6]
• Food-Deprivation-Induced-Anxiety (12) [L6]
• Adaptation to Stress (13) (14) [L7] [L8] [L9] [L10]

Do Ramen Noodles Cause NeuroToxicity / ExcitoToxicity? The 'WHY' in Instant-Noodles Causing Anxiety etc

Almost every brand of 'Instant Noodles', especially the Cheap ones you can get at a Corner Store - contains MSG; MonoSodium Glutamate. Now, while there are mountains of hype, erroneous remarks, and idiotic meme's regarding this structurally diverse but yet simple amino-acid compound - most of it is close to nonsense. 

That DOESN'T mean that it is entirely healthy, or something you want to irresponsibly consume every day, three times a day, but - it isn't something that will kill your brain cells overnight. Also, MSG isn't the ONLY Problem within Ramen Noodles and some Chinese throw-in-the-microwave meals, rather, it's the extreme abundance of SODIUM (=Salt=) and then the utter lack of nutrients that leads to abnormal physiological (within the body, organic processes) responses - including cell dehydration (you'd have to drink three 17 fl. ounce bottles to get adequately REHYDRATED after one ''soup'') and over-excitation. 

You See, the sodium overloads the cell and neuron-networks and causes them to misuse energy. The body can also release adrenaline and blood glucose which can then , in conjunction, force your organs and cells to work harder and quicker - the result is a contamination of the body's energy processis. 

The GLUTAMATE part in the MONO-SODIUM (monosodium-GLUTAMATE;MSG) is more of an additive repercussion - but glutamate is actually an essential amino acid - and it is absolutely essential for almost every process in the body (including Respiration, and thus breathing, and energy, and thinking) , it's ONLY WHEN GLUTAMATE becomes absolutely EXCESSIVE - that it becomes toxic..and the "less than 1%" equivalent amount of MSG in Top Ramen is not enough in itself to cause damage to any process or cell in your body HOWEVER, the sodium hastens the process of excitotoxicity - forcing the body/mind/brain to rev up the production and Usage of ~SODIUM-CHANNELS~ (Na2+) which are also known as sodium-ion-channels which then recruits other 'second messengers'  to control the excess sodium-ions and clean up the mess of excess Sodium.


FINALLY, Ramen contains IRON but barely any other vitamins other than what is SPRAYED ONTO THEM - the imbalance created by both IRON & SODIUM along with the horrendously disproportionate diets of your Average Teenager - leads to mineral deficiency and brain cell overexcitation...your best bet, if you *MUST* eat Ramen or REFUSE/NEGLECT to stop the consumption of these artificial food products... is to AT LEAST supplement with missing minerals, but ESPECIALLY...

• MAGNESIUM (get Liquid-form preferably)
• Zinc  (small tablets)
• L-LYSINE (neuroprotective, anti-anxiety, anti-herpes, pro-cognitive/memory) (super-high-purity-brand-vegetable-capsules)

Those three are often missing anyway and a deficiency of one or ALL THREE of those is associated with ALMOST EVERY ANXIETY DISORDER ON THE PLANET.

So, what else is there to Say??

Area-1255 Q/A's :: "Why does My Dick Shrink When My Heart Beats Fast?" (Physiological Explanations Given to Tachycardia Co-Occurrence w/ E.D)

:A: {Simple Answer} :A:

The body is releasing course amounts of Adrenaline , for whatever reason; probably Stress. The result is an increase in heart rate and contractile force - additionally, Serotonin may be playing a large role - particularly activating the 5-HT(4) Receptor system which causes penile vasoconstriction (3) and a Positive Inotropic Effect on the Heart - and ultimately increased heart rate (4) (5).

If you are taking an SSRI-anti-depressant or profuse dosages of 5-HTP - this can be well explained by effects of accumulating Serotonin due to those substances (6) (7)...
                       :A: {COMPLEX ANSWER} :A:

When the brain and nerves detect stress, whether real or perceived - the adrenal glands begin to respond to these signals by secreting adrenaline and noradrenaline, as well as other neurohormones depending on the duration of Stress and perceived intensity...if one works themselves up constantly , these hormones never really get the chance to calm down - the result is a myriad of negative health effects and the increased susceptibility to Circulatory Issues.

~~~HOW TO RESOLVE~~~

• L-LYSINE (to block Serotonin-Tachycardia)
• Shilajit (to Calm Excess Adrenaline)

How to Decrease 5-HT1A Receptors / How to Downregulate 5-HT1A Receptors (Includes Decreasing Sensitivity)

This article aims to be a sort of opposite to the increasing 5-HT1A-Receptors article - as such, the reasons for decreasing the density/concentration are very different than the reasons for increasing 1A-Receptors.

Whereas agonism of, and increasing the count of , 1A-receptors , is useful for Anxiety and, Depression in some cases, the antagonism and / or decreasing of receptor 1A can potentially improve cognition, and overall acquisition...it may also alleviate sexual side-effects of SSRI's.


Hormones & Factors that reduce the sensitivity of and downregulate 5-HT1A's include.....

• T3 (Active Thyroid Hormone) (1) (2)
• Free Testosterone/Brain Estrogen (3) (4) (5)

Factors that specifically INCREASE hypothalamus-5-HT release and 5-HT1A-hypothalamic receptors would be....  (ANTI-TARGETS)... 

• Melatonin (6) (7)

In order to downregulate these Receptors - we need to do two things.

1. Increase Free Testosterone; lift weights, lose fat/gain muscle, use stuff like Tongkat Ali. Nettle HP Extract (8) (9) (10) (11) (12)...
2. Use Forskolin + Olive Leaf Extract to boost T4/T3 thyroid hormone levels (13) (14)....

Finally, you can also use a modulatory-compound that specifically mimicks estrogen in discrete-regions of the hypothalamus - one that blocks excessive estrogen in the breasts/chest and prostate - but also selectively activates it where it would then influence the post-synaptic densities...in this case, I recommend PhytoSERMs.

The Answer to Your Question/s. : Why Testosterone Treatment Isn't Helping My Libido / Erections?

This is actually a common question. 

Men will get on to TRT, or perhaps a Testosterone-Boosting-Supplement Cocktail - in effort to resolve a low libido and / or erection issues. Often , they either find that they get an initial improvement of all issues - followed by a drop-off period where the benefits simply, cease, out of nowhere. This article aims to answer this problem as well as those who receive little to no benefit from increasing T-levels .


The most common reasons for getting no benefit in the libido department from T injections, pills , or patches , are as follows.

1. The most prominent issue, besides the two below this - is Pregnenolone and DHEA deficiency. Just because you are supplementing Testosterone, doesn't mean all other important steroid hormones increase. In fact, most people see an overall decrease in the levels of these hormones WHILE on TRT/HRT - which do a lot more than just ''convert'' into other hormones. Pregnenolone and DHEA themselves act on totally separate neuronal pathways to increase sex drive and memory, and to provide a rapid mood-lifting effect. Thus, it is immensely important to supplement Pregnenolone/DHEA WHILE ON and OFF TRT.  RS Transaderm is the only proven bioavailable method to increase these hormones..as it contains a patented transdermal delivery system rather than weak and poorly digested tablets.
2. Estrogen is out-of-whack, levels of Estrogen rise quickly, especially after Week 3 - and this process is hastened and amplified if the patient is Obese, in poor shape, and particularly, if one consumes plant based foods or herbal remedies which may contain estrogen-like-compounds. In this case, if blood work is taken by a qualified Lab/Physician - and Estradiol {(E2)} levels turn out to be elevated - then it is recommended that Arimidex therapy be immediately commenced. 
3. DHT levels are either low, or extremely high..however, in terms of sex drive, the issue is likely low DHT. This can happen if , again, one is Clinicallyy obese, and in poor shape, with a poor muscle:Fat proportion - but DHT levels are at particular risk; if one is diagnosed with a genetic condition that entails congenital androgen deficiency or developmental delays / disruptions. Karyotype may reveal more regarding the potential androgen-insensitivities/klinefelter's type disorders. Andractim may be worth adding to your TRT-regimen; and it can help treat gynecomastia.
4. The other reason, a less likely but definitely possible explanation for predominantly ERECTILE issues as opposed to libido/sex drive issues..is a central nitric oxide deficiency that extends BEYOND hormonal parameter's...in this case, I recommend a very specific form of L-Arginine called L-Arginine-Ethyl-Ester - which is far more bioavailable than 'regular' L-Arginine and much more potent. In addition, Cialis, and NOT Viagra,, should be used for persistent increases in nitrergic activity and the enhancement of Arginine's actions.

How to Reduce / Eliminate Tolerance to Psychedelics (DMT, Acid, Salvia, Shrooms) Regaining Sensitivity to Psychedelics

When it comes to Psychedelic's, Hallucinogen's, Dissociative's - pretty much anything that alters perception in such a way, that provides for a visual acuity and memorable experience... we want consistency, of course; it is one helluva downer when we find we develop a tolerance and the plant's or meds in question no longer work to the same extent..or after years of usage...AT ALL!!

...of course , the ''AT ALL'' consumer's are a little rarer than those whom have 'reduced sensitivity' or a typical tolerance...issue.

So, what we want to know , of course, is how to REGAIN SENSITIVITY to the psychedelic chemical's...and we want a 'surefire method that won't back down on us.... because of course, missing the euphoria and ecstasy of theese Pivotal experiences would be the True Insanity, to us...so, how do we go about doing this?


A brief overview as to HOW hallucinogen's and psychedelic's work...but not the poisonous one's nobody ever uses....

• Hallucinogen's in particular, have to modify the glutamate system; most prominently by activating the Serotonin5-HT2A-receptor complex which then leads to visual changes and very specific neuronal changes in the limbic and orbitofrontal cortex - which then commence the vivid visual encounter's :: (1) (2)...  { We can enhance the sensitivity by taking Ashwagandha Extract for 3-8 weeks or more }
• Dissociative's also depend on serotonin-glutamate interactions. NMDA-receptor antagonism mediate's the effects of Ketamine and plays a role in the effects of GHB (indirectly) (3) (4).
• Dopamine D(2) activation plays a role in the pro-social effects of many psychedelic's, but mainly Ecstasy and Salvia are  Relevant to this Property (5) (6) (7).  D2-activation plays a role in the bonding, and intensification of emotions while on Ecstasy (8) (9) (10).  

BlueLight discussed some methods to doing this as well; including opiate-opioid-receptor antagonism (blockade)..

{Here's a topic on Shroomery as well - which corroborates the above.}

Naltrexone is an opioid-Receptor Antagonist (blocker) that will resolve the above pathway and rapidly restore the effects of, and even amplify the effects of, hallucinogen's - people also use the compound to increase endorphin's in the long-run and for anti-aging benefits...

However, you could also use a 'traditional sensitizer' like SYRIAN RUE; which is historically a main component in AYUHUASCA ~ a hallucinogenic 'shaman's brew' which lasts for quite a while (the effects)...

NOTE:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

YOU CAN NOT USE NALTREXONE AND SYRIAN RUE TOGETHER, ONE OR THE OTHER...

Plant / Herbal Aphrodisiacs that Work Via the Oxytocinergic (Oxytocin) System

June, 7, 2013; the date of Publishment for    ~ "Exploring scientifically proven herbal aphrodisiacs" ~

A Compilation Paper of  some historic roots and plants; that have been scientifically validated and written about by Medical Experts & Naturopaths alike. This paper has had tremendous influence and has circulated well-throughout the natural health community and even some smaller anti-aging venue's and online communities. It constitute's actual methods of Virility improvement, no longer clarified by folk-lore alone, and thus successfully accommodates your quest to become a better man (or woman).

Much of the fascination with the idea of improvement and optimization of male vitality is from the sophistication of the human sexuality paradigm itself..but also, the physiology of it all.

When Viagra and Cialis hit the scene, it became known that one could correct their sexual deficit's by working on the penile 'plumbing' , and even in those looking for recreational 'enhancement', it proved successful - those without competency issues have used Cialis as a 'weekend pill'...and some bodybuilder's regularly take it to improve vascularity and effectiveness of their pre-workout product/s. They are solid performance boosters and greatly improve both the muscle pump and erection.quality.

However, now, there is something even more interesting than all of that, an herbal component that can act on the SUPRASPINAL system to directly influence the male sexual rhythm and to improve both ejaculatory performance AND Erectile performance! 



This means it acts with the NERVES to promote that sexual fire that everyone wants to dictate , which, until this point, may have not been readily revealed or outlined clearly, in medical literature. 

This ''leaf'' and ''flower'' should have been elucidated long ago - well, actually, it sort of was , but ..unfortunately - it wasn't specified properly nor notated rightly, at the time..


So here it is...it is known as Montanoa tomentosa ; an oxytocin-promoting or oxytocin activating aphrodisiac herb that promotes ejaculation and sexual arousal/desire DIRECTLY - and has actions in the spinal nerve system because of this specific..property...a property NOT SHARED by other aphrodisiac herbs.

Here's the study ........

The ONLY Product TO DATE that contains this fascinating herb - is known as A-HD-Elite; a sex-booster and Testosterone-Boosting Supplement - that is , indeed , a  very good Deal..and VERY POPULAR. With excellent reviews across the board and verified testing results.
