What DOES work, in your experience?Vitamin C raising dopamine? I think only a small number on that list can raise it meaningfully and reliably. I don't believe many on that anti-dopamine list are meaningfully negative either. This comment is based on my own multiple years long experiments with dopamine and mood.
I don't quite understand this. A high Dopamine state to me means very proactive, getting things done, focus, energy etc. If I eat something high in salt, sugar, fat, the only thing I'm doing is being horizontal and not moving much. Something doesn't add up imoPro:
obviously anything sweet and greasy, or salty. Wondering why the junk food industry works so well? People get massive dopamine shots from eating out.
IME:
Good:
Top notch highest quality dairy in limited doses
Top notch highest quality Dark Chocolate in limited doses
Whole Fruit, snacked (reasonably high sugar:starch ratio)
Protein
Sport
DHT (LOW doses)
Bad:
Whatever that leaves liver glycogen low
Whatever that leaves brain glycogen low
High fatty acids
High starch:sugar ratio
Mineral imbalances (use cronometer)
Ugly:
Low calories
Couch-potato’ing
Slow metabolism

Hmmm, but I've experienced the same exact thing only moments after eating what this forum considers healthy food. What causes his feelings is in my opinion the high from the foods itself, not some cocaine-like come-down from what you erroneously presumed was junk food and that he must have been eating that instead of an innumerable amount of things which are healthy and also contain the same salt/sugar/fat.that's because you get hit by a low dopamine state right after the high, experienced from junk food causing the massive dopamine release.
What doesn't add up is the idea that high-dopamine means being proactive and go-getting. If this were the case, society and what it considers 'progress' itself wouldn't be based on high-serotonin psychopathy.I don't quite understand this.

If you feel horizontal after eating salt, sugar, and fat(I'm assuming SFA), it's probably because that's exactly what they cause. What do most people do after a dopamine-releasing orgasm or a satisfying meal? Do they suddenly go out and get things done? Thanks for the list by the way.
Is your entire opinion and argument an article from SelfHacked?
each paragraph has at least one pubmed study backing up the statement. seems more reliable than your wonderful insightIs your entire opinion and argument an article from SelfHacked?
Definitely can't rely on or consider anything unless it has pubmed studies backing it up. (sarcasm)each paragraph has at least one pubmed study backing up the statement. seems more reliable than your wonderful insight

Why limited? What's the downside?Top notch highest quality dairy in limited doses
Yeah, finding myself being drawn to that...Neurotic supplementing
This made me sad.Do something that will bring you pleasure and enjoy the moment.
Had to google it, are you speaking from experience?mucuna pruriens powder
Don't eat meat/seafood, and dairy has brought my bowels to a complete halt, so it is a little hard...Eating whole foods isn’t that hard
This made me sad.
It's such a good and simple idea, and it made me think "what do I enjoy?" and it's really slim pickings...

I’m undecided on MP myself. I can feel the dopamine effect from them, but sometimes I can get delayed strange effects from them—that leave me feeling like something is off and imbalanced. And, they can make my liver hurt; though, Inread that your liver can’t hurt, technicality. So, maybe something close by it.mucuna pruriens powder
