Neurotransmitter Therapy
Neurotransmitters are the chemical messengers that control nerve and brain
function. In order for the body to work properly, these chemicals must be in proper
balance. If they are not, symptoms begin.
Standard medicine uses drugs that move neurotransmitters from one place to
another, but they do not actually increase the levels of these agents. In the
long run, these drugs deplete the body of neurotransmitters and cause greater
imbalance, ultimately resulting in a complete shutdown of the system. Such drugs
as Paxil, Prozac, and other SSRI anti-depressants are notorious for this effect.
Among others, the tricyclic agents (Amitriptyline (Elavil), Sinequan, etc.), weight
loss drugs (Meridia, Adipex, etc.), stimulants (amphetamine, Ritalin, caffeine,
etc.), nicotine, alcohol, anti-psychotic agents (Remeron, etc.), and migraine
drugs (Imitrex, Maxalt, etc.) and others all produce the same type of effects.
Our approach avoids these problems by using amino acids along with vitamins
and minerals. These agents increase the levels of neurotransmitters to normal
levels, and in a balanced manner. If used improperly, however, amino acids can
also cause imbalances in the neurotransmitters. For this reason, we use only specific
combinations of these agents, and we check neurotransmitter levels via a urine
test when needed.
As we are working with the basic control processes of the body, the list of
treatable conditions is large, and growing on a regular basis. One of the most
important uses is in weight loss. We now have available a complete, effective
program to lose 300 pounds or 10 pounds. This effect on weight loss leads to many
improvements, including joint function and decreased pain. Other conditions which
respond are panic attacks, insomnia, fibromyalgia, low cortisol levels (poor adrenal
function), PMS, Irritable Bowel Disease, Crohn’s Disease, aggression, ADHD,
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Ulcerative Colitis, eating disorders of all types,
depression, Parkinson’s Disease,
migraines, anxiety, addictions (drug alcohol), hormone dysfunction, impulsivity,
psychotic disorders, high blood pressure, Type II Diabetes, stroke,
gastric ulcers, vascular disease, impotence, decreased cognitive function, infertility,
chronic pain, sleep apnea, bulimia, anorexia, high cholesterol, and heart disease.
The therapy also helps reduce cancer rates, disability, infections, and leads
to a longer life expectancy.
All of these results are obtained with no side effects or toxicity. And, in
most cases, results are obtained within one week. Due to the broad nature of effects
that this therapy provides, I consider it to be one of the basic approaches to
be used for the majority of people. For more info, go to http://neuroassist.com/NeuroassistHomePage/index.html.
