Amino Acids; Brain Function and Mood

The key brain neurotransmitters are made of amino acids. Far better proteins are plant based proteins that offer organic status and they are quickly absorbed  in the body.   Meats require significant stomach acid and digestive energy to process and break down to their essential elements.

If you are supplementing with good protein every day, (most people with eating and weight problems are doing neither), your positive mood and freedom from cravings can be maintained.   This will allow you to quickly start removing the carb and sugar rich foods.   Mood supplements rarely hit the mark due to high cost and the fact that everyone is “wired” differently i.e. the brain is too complex for processed nutrients.
