kiran said:Doesn't serotonin allow you to down-regulate your bodily functions to match available nutrition? This would mean that being deficient in serotonin would increase bodily depletion and make things worse, unless you're really getting proper adequate nutrition to begin with!
Essentially make deficiencies even worse.
peatarian said:That's true, kiran. If you are a hibernating animal and your serotonin is suddenly decreased - you might die. If you are a human being and you don't get the necessary nutrition, increasing serotonin will 'down-regulate your bodily functions to match available nutrition' - there is another word for it: degeneration. The completion of the process of 'down-regulating the bodily functions' would be death.

Dean said:Anyway, the plant compounds in the ayahuasca brew are both an MAOI and SRI. I'm not exactly sure how this translates, however, to the neurotransmitter activity. My thinking is that the amount and activity of serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine would all be increased, perhaps with the serotonin kept somewhat in check? Can anyone more scientific-minded then I clear this up?
