So we talked about glutamine and we've heard a little bit about glutamine before. I think many of your listeners, like glutamine is an amino acid and glutamine is extremely important for a lot of different things. It actually is the fuel for your small intestine at the same time as it is a precursor for glutamate, which then gets converted into GABA in the system.

So the first thing I think about when I'm working with my patients that are looking, that have been drinking a lot of alcohol, or if they've been on benzodiazepines and we're thinking about supporting their GABA system,

is looking at making sure they're getting enough glutamine in their diet, not only for their gut, if they have leaky gut, they even need more than if they have not a leaky gut, but then also thinking about the cofactors that are responsible for the conversions of your glutamine into your glutamate into your GABA. So you're thinking of vitamin B6 and magnesium mostly.

But I alluded to it earlier, if you have a leaky gut, if your gut's not doing well, if you're having a hard time there, You're going to need more glutamine to support your small intestine before you even get over to make enough glutamate and make enough and make enough GABA. So there's lots of glutamine containing foods as well.

Your meat containing products are going to be your highest in glutamine. And so your meat, eggs, poultry, dairy, those kinds of things are going to be the highest in glutamine overall. And but there's a lot of benefits of supporting your GABA system while you're starting to wean yourself off of things like alcohol and benzos. Yeah.

those are great foods to use. I mean, what it comes down to for me is looking at a holistic picture, right? When somebody in my estimation is GABA deficient, which is very common these days, you wanna think about it holistically. You wanna think about what are the types of foods that are gonna support GABA and glutamine production?

What are the minerals that you're gonna require to be able to create that? conversion very easily. And then how are you going to prevent yourself from stopping the depletion of GABA so quickly?
