Why do we use histamine to determine serotonin and dopamine levels for treating depression naturally? While genetics is the inherited characteristics of an organism’s genes, epigenetics is a term that describes the factors of influence on the genes, to cause the cells to increase or decrease their function. That function is the transcription and manufacture […]
Serious conditions such as panic disorders, Biopolar disorder and schizophrenia are often suffering from overmethylation. Serotonin, dopamine and norepinephrine are elevated in these persons. It is possible to diagnose this condition through a whole blood histamine test or else through a SAM/SAH methylation ratio test. Higher levels of these neurotransmitters can cause anxieties, disorders […]
This publication suggests that acetate, derived from acetic acid, may assist the brain and other organs in reducing inflammation. That it does so specifically by acetylating DNA histones, explains the effectiveness of products such as organic apple cider vinegar in managing overmethylators. Overmethylators, who may be identified by a histamine blood test, would benefit because acetyl-CoA […]
Methylation Overview: New discoveries in the field of epigenetics have led to effective advanced nutrient therapies for children and adults challenged by brain disorders, such as autism, Alzheimer’s, depression, bipolar, schizoaffective disorders, and ADHD/ADD. A Walsh panel can determine a clients’ methylation status, and thus a treatment based on their biochemical individuality. Dr. David Epstein, […]
Pioneers in the field of Nutrient Therapy, such as Carl Pfeiffer, MD, PhD and William J. Walsh, PhD, President of the Walsh Research Institute, have found abnormalities in methylation and elevated or reduced levels of histamines in the body to be central to many different behavioral or mood disorders, such as bipolar disorder, depression, anxiety, […]
The Five Biotypes of #depression & Advanced Nutrient Therapies with William Walsh, PhD Second Opinion Physician, David Epstein, D.O., is trained in the Walsh Protocol, developed by Dr. William J. Walsh, PhD, and committed to the natural treatment of depression, as well as other mood and behavioral disorders, thru the use of Nutrient Therapy. It […]
This is an excellent summary of the Dr Walsh theory of #schizophrenia from Biobalance Health in Australia: Thesis 1: Schizophrenia is #epigenetic in Nature: A psychotic “breakdown” is usually followed by a lifetime of mental illness and misery. This often permanent change in functioning results from altered chromatin bookmarks that regulate gene expression. Since the deviant […]
