I'm not sure what you have in mind, but since most of the substances that you listed don't just lower serotonin directly, they could eventually address the cause of diversion of nutrients and normalize those. Extra folate along with the other B-vitamins that you plan to take isn't a quick fix, it's part of a sustainable approach in my opinion.
There are various aspects to consider that could make them fail. Example, if someone consumes 50 g of collagen a day with the suggestion of making it a decent portion of your protein intake, how could it not lead to argininosis? Are there factors in meat (such as zinc) that when consumed together prevent this? Will these be included when it's consumed in itolasion? Are there contaminants in case it's a collagen product (such as fluoride)? And so on.
It's preferable to only include the next set when you've familiarized with one of them, otherwise the chances of becoming impractical increase markedly.
Yeah I'm sorry I wasn't all that clear. When I feel I have high Homocysteine I feel sluggish, constipated and edematous. If I take Folate or TMG I usually get an acutely liver flush and lowered Homocysteine resulting in acute bowel movement, mood lift, less bloat etc. But these effects do not apply to chronic use.
Diet is 2-3L 1% Milk, 1,5-2L OJ, 60-80g Collagen, 2 Eggs, 30-40g Coconut Oil, 0-15g Cacao Butter and about 150g Sugar.
It should fit someone with MTHFR, but gut is hard to balance and keep balanced. Often when I feel discomfort in gut I also feel discomfort in the state of now, making me think serotonin has been a bigger factor for my gut/health than I realized, and probably deserves as much attention as estrogen. A body low on estrogen and serotonin should keep liver and gut flowing, but an imbalance would keep liver and gut shut either high in estrogen or serotonin.
Progesterone and Vitamin E does wonder for my estrogen, but my body cloggs way to easy under stress and then estrogen rises sharply again, and I feel it`s because of my gut stopping as Serotonin is being produced, increasing endotoxin and this negative loop starts yet again.
So I`m going to focus heavily on an anti serotonin and anti estrogen regime, hopefully giving me a flow state I would believe would benefit methylation and regulate homocysteine levels. I`m also curious on how effective the anti fibrotic effects from Meterogoline and Lisuride can be. And I`m dropping DHEA..
Sorry to drop these awkward posts on you @Amazoniac but I always appreciate your comments
