Definitely; high stress levels can trigger fibromyalgia.Hi
I want to know how to decrease serotonin levels(I already tried gelatin which didn't help me much)?
is there any relation between high serotonin and fibromylagia (stiff neck and headache)?
Thanks a lot
@Aidin91Lysine is a strong anti-serotonin substance that might be easier to purchase than the substances Dave recommended.
Edit: BTW...Aspirin is as well isn't it @DaveFoster?
Worth a shot to lower serotonin:
- carrot
- bamboo shoot
- mushrooms
- bacteriophages
- lysine
- theanine
- cypro
- metergoline
- antibiotics ( i would be very cautious, even ray peat acknowledged the downsides lately )
- variety in life, change your environment, do something out of the usual
Are these available in the market.I think in an email he said that bacteriophages may be superior to antibiotics, because bacteria cant get resistant to bacteriophages as is the case with antibiotics.
Personally, I feel like bacteriophages are better because they target more the biofilms, and the "sticky" bacterias which the immune system usually has problems coping with.

Ray mentioned two. One by Life Extension called Bacteriophages I think. The other is called Floraphage. I chose the second after checking the excipients.Are these available in the market.
Pharma drugs?

I'm a bit concerned about Benadryl. I've been using it to sleep and found a study about its link to dementia.@Aidin91
Yes it does.
Acetaminophen raises serotonin/adrenaline, aspirin lowers it
Also, aspirin is an NSAID and can relieve the symptoms of fibromyalgia, which are largely caused by estrogen (as alluded to in a higher prevalence of fibro among women.) Ray recommends aspirin, dyphenhydramine (Benadryl), and cyproheptadine (Periactin) for fibromyalgia.
Benadryl has serotonergic effects.I'm a bit concerned about Benadryl. I've been using it to sleep and found a study about its link to dementia.
Strong Anticholinergics and Incident Dementia
why would RP recommend it?Benadryl has serotonergic effects.
Lower doses probably have negligible serotonergic effects.why would RP recommend it?
