Hi ,
ich sehe gerade eine Sendung (Welt der Wunder), in der ich erfahre, dass zu 80% im Darm aufgebaut wird, was mir nicht bekannt war (Quelle: Dr. Camilla Lieners, Experte für Labordiagnostik).
Ich dachte, dass dieser des Glücklichmachens überwiegend im Gehirn produziert wird.

Ausgewogene macht also glücklich, was ich schon sehr lange spüre, besonders intensiv nach meiner Pensionierung... 😅😅👍

I have a mental image of the . Never looked at any type of schematic representation. Certain instances are left or right if others fan out and at different levels. I vary my reading significantly. Anything about that sort of visualization?

I do have a type of audio

🧫 The synaptic terminal has these entities here, which are called synaptic vesicles, and they're small, little organelles.

🧫 They're little vesicles made of a membrane; just like the cell has a cell membrane, these vesicles have a vesicular membrane.
The neurotransmitters are within the vesicular membrane.

🧫 And, the neurotransmitter can be any number of a number of different molecules — , , , , , , , , , .

🧫 The neurotransmitters are packaged in vesicles. The second thing that's important about this is that we can use the synthesis of a as a therapeutic tool.

🧫 So, for instance, Dopamine is missing in .
It's not that dopamine isn't made per say, that's there's a problem with making it — it's that the cells that make it die.

🧫 There's something called 'Mass Effect', which means that you take the starting chemical (the substrate) and then through a series of enzymatic processes reaction, through a series of enzymatic reactions, we end up with a neurotransmitter.

🧫 In the case of Dopamine, what we do to treat in most people with Parkinson's is that we give them the substrate — and so that (drug) is what is commonly known as or .

🧫 So we flood the system with substrate, and the goal is to get a little bit of that neurotransmitter out of the system.
