@redsun Is that acetylcholine quiz truly reliable or are there other imbalances that could cause such a personality?
So one needs:
Eggs
B1,B5
Zinc, iron
Vitamin C
is that all? What is the best form of B5, I see panthotenic acid and I see pantethine? Does choline in beets and chickpeas count
Most B-vitamins help cholinergic activity, but those two are the main ones.
Made by Dr Eric R. Braverman. You can look him up. I'd say it is pretty accurate. especially when I realized I had Ach low and tried to raise it all of these facets improved. It may take time to get long-lasting effect depending on what you lack (choline deficiency) or if you have receptor problem but overall poor acetylcholine activity, if the test shows that, is a good diagnosis. We have to remember that the body can make choline, but not enough to meet our requirements. And there are some things that can raise choline needs. I believe sugar is the main one.
Also tryptophan and serine are major components for acetylcholine breakdown (the enzyme) so I think high tryptophan foods may mean you need more choline for more Ach effect. Maybe this is how tryptophan helps people with mood and depression, not because it increases serotonin but because it increase Ach breakdown.
