Mental health is intricately linked to a fine-tuned balance of neurotransmitters and brain function, influenced by a complex interplay of biological factors.
Why is it Important?
Stress, anxiety, and depression are prevalent mental health challenges with significant impacts on individuals and society. Tried one medicine after another and still depressed? This presentation explores a comprehensive, biological perspective on these conditions, emphasizing the intricate interplay of neurotransmitters, mineral balance, genetics, and amino acids.
By understanding the mechanisms underlying mood disorders, we will explore the foundational aspects of brain health, focusing on neurotransmitters, the gut microbiome, essential minerals, genetics, and the critical role of amino acids. We will delve into the role of neurotransmitters such as serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine in mood regulation and the implications of their imbalance in stress-related disorders.
We will explore the biomarkers of neuroscience which opens the door to a deeper understanding of the aetiology of mental health disorders and how to leverage this information to identifying biochemical and metabolic blocks in the natural restoration of optimal neurotransmitter levels.
One size does not fit all. Make informed treatment choices with a comprehensive understanding of the biological underpinnings of mental health.
