Sample Book Insights:
#1 The first step in your Mood Cure is to figure out the difference between false emotions and true ones. True emotions are difficult to take, but they’re vitally important. They typically pass, or diminish naturally, and even when they get repressed or misdirected, they can be relieved through counseling.
#2 When your brain’s emotional equipment needs a tune-up, you get clues: you don’t sleep well, you worry too much, you start feeling overwhelmed, you lose your enthusiasm or your ability to concentrate. You may start depending on chocolate, wine, or marijuana to get some relief.
#3 Your brain is responsible for most of your feelings, both true and false. It transmits these feelings through four specialized and potent kinds of mood molecules. If your brain runs low on these mood transmitters, it stops producing normal emotions on a consistent basis.
#4 I have been a professional dealing with emotional disorders and mood problems since 1975. In 1980, I began to suspect that poor nutrition was playing a role in the cases that did not respond to our intensive programs of psychotherapy and spiritual support.

#1

The first step in your Mood Cure is to figure out the difference between false emotions and true ones. True emotions are difficult to take, but they’re vitally important. They typically pass, or diminish naturally, and even when they get repressed or misdirected, they can be relieved through counseling.

#2

When your brain’s emotional equipment needs a tune-up, you get clues: you don’t sleep well, you worry too much, you start feeling overwhelmed, you lose your enthusiasm or your ability to concentrate. You may start depending on chocolate, wine, or marijuana to get some relief.

#3

Your brain is responsible for most of your feelings, both true and false. It transmits these feelings through four specialized and potent kinds of mood molecules. If your brain runs low on these mood transmitters, it stops producing normal emotions on a consistent basis.

#4

I have been a professional dealing with emotional disorders and mood problems since 1975. In 1980, I began to suspect that poor nutrition was playing a role in the cases that did not respond to our intensive programs of psychotherapy and spiritual support.

#5

The reward deficiency syndrome is the name given to the symptoms of anxiety, anger, and depression that many addicts experience even after they have stopped using. Dr. Blum found that he could overcome this syndrome by giving his research subjects amino acids, which are similar to nutrients found in food.

#6

The amino acids are still our most effective weapons for fighting false moods. We have found that they not only improve mood instantly, but also speed up psychotherapy. A well-nourished person who has had a brain chemistry tune-up with amino acids gets beyond psychological and emotional obstacles faster, deeper, and more successfully.

#7

The effects of nutritionally stabilized moods on our clients’ relationships have been extraordinary. We’ve seen hundreds of clients shed their false feelings of tension, apathy, irritability, and emotional pain right before our eyes.

#8

Each of the four mood engines in your brain needs a different amino acid fuel. The lower your access to amino fuel, the more false mood symptoms you can develop. The question is how much gas you have in each of your engines.

#9

The fact is that our moods can be affected by our genes, but they can also be affected by our diet. If we don’t eat enough of the right kinds of fats, we will not be able to use those natural mood-boosting amino fuels.

#10

The modern lifestyle can also contribute to mood imbalance. Too much stress can deplete the brain of its feel good neurotransmitters, and this can lead to a false mood.

#11

The Mood Cure is not for everyone. It does not treat severe false moods such as autism, psychosis, bipolar disorder, violent rage, or paranoia. Other clinicians have had experience treating these conditions with natural therapies, sometimes very successfully.

#12

The first step in your Mood Cure is to identify what needs fixing. You can start getting down to the specifics by filling out the Four-Part Mood-Type Questionnaire. Once you’ve completed this false mood profiling, you can move on to the specific repair chapters.

#13

The four types of false moods are anger, anxiety, sadness, and disgust. To identify your own symptoms, start by circling the number next to any of the symptoms that apply to you. Don’t minimize! Think about it carefully.

#14

If your score is more than 12 in part 1, turn to chapter 3, page 25.

#15

If your score is more than 6 in part 2, turn to chapter 4, page 53.

#16

If your score is more than 8 in part 3, turn to chapter 5, page 77.

#17

If your score is more than 6 in part 4, turn to chapter 6, page 100.

#18

The brain profiles of Cara, Emma, and Rob showed that they all had symptoms of depression. They went home with supplements that targeted their symptoms, and after taking the supplements, they reported the best night’s sleep and the best morning mood they had ever had.

#19

The first step in your Mood Cure is to identify which false mood type you are, based on the questionnaire. You’ll move on to step two, eliminating the four most common mood imbalances. There, you’ll learn what is causing you to have a particular set of false moods and what you can do about it.

#20

You will start to feel better in the first week as your nutritherapy program begins to take effect. Your repair process will be complete in a few weeks, and you will no longer need to take special repair supplements to maintain your new sense of well-being.
Insights from Chapter 2

#1

Serotonin deficiency is the most common mood problem we see at the clinic. It is caused by a lack of serotonin, which is synthesized in the body from tryptophan, an amino acid found in foods like turkey, beef, and cheese.

#2

Regardless of the cause of your drop in serotonin, it does not mean that you are doomed to languish in this mood pit for the rest of your life. You can quickly increase your serotonin levels, allowing you to experience the full range of emotion that nature intended for you.

#3

To increase your serotonin levels, you must get enough tryptophan from your diet. Unfortunately, the amount of tryptophan in food has decreased over the past one hundred years, just as the rate of depression has risen.

#4

The low serotonin state may be caused by the fact that you are not getting enough fat in your diet. Fat intake increases the availability of tryptophan in the brain, which can help fight serotonin deficiency.

#5

Don’t inadvertently sabotage your serotonin defense efforts. Avoid stimulants like caffeine, as they are serotonin’s number one enemies. Also avoid aspartame, which is an amino acid found in many foods, and is converted to the stimulating substances tyrosine, dopamine, norepinephrine, and adrenaline.

#6

Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that is responsible for mood and sleep. It is produced in the brain, and it is responsible for mood and sleep, but it can also be inherited.

#7

The amino acids and other supplements that can raise your serotonin levels are especially effective if you combine them with some bright light. The light should be at least thirty minutes a day within three feet of a light bulb burning 2,500 lux.

#8

Exercise can increase your serotonin levels, which can be helpful in fighting depression. It can also help you feel better by increasing your oxygen intake, which is critical to the production of serotonin from amino acids.

#9

Before we go into detail about how to use which nutrients to quickly optimize your serotonin levels, it is important to understand how a lack of serotonin may be affecting your mood, behavior, and life.

#10

Depression is too vague a term to be very useful. It is best to think of yourself as depressed if you are experiencing a gloomy and agitated mental outlook, regardless of whether your real life circumstances are pleasant or not.

#11

Low self-esteem is often caused by a lack of confidence, which is often caused by low serotonin levels. Raising your serotonin levels will leave you with a healthy conscience, not a toxic one.

#12

Those who are low on serotonin may be described as being obsessive or controlling. You may take over and do things for others, but they may come to depend on you but resent you for not letting them work things out for themselves.

#13

If you have low serotonin levels, you are likely to be experiencing feelings of impatience, edginess, and unreasonable irritability. While you may not be prone to violent rages, you may be affected by your anger affecting your relationships.

#14

Serotonin deficiency is often the cause of angry behavior. I have been intimidated by my own angry clients at times. But I’ve helped them change by giving them 5-HTP supplements.

#15

Serotonin deficiency is the most common cause of panic attacks, but it can also be caused by a thyroid or adrenal malfunction.
