But listen, I have friends in the tech sector, in the finance sector, you see this in the finance guys. It's often, they're doing Adderall, they're day trading, they're night trading, you know, their friends are making a ton of money. And we also have the social comparison thing. So I'm not going to say that social media hijacks all of this, but let's just say, and I, I love social media.

I'm on Instagram and X, I teach there. I learn there. Love your content. Love Segura's content, Rogan. You know, I'm learning there, Tim Dillon, right? Like I'm, I love it. Yeah. But There are elements of this where if you find yourself on social media, but you're kind of like, what am I doing here? Like, this is like, nothing's happening here. You are in a dopamine trough. You're in a trough.

You've already gotten your high. You've gotten it. And we hear dopamine hits. If it were really dopamine hits, you'd be going, whoa, yeah, amazing. Cool. No, that happens now and again. But what's happening is the threshold for what really draws you in. It's getting higher and higher.

Yes. So there are things that are precursors to dopamine and things that stimulate the release of dopamine. So things that stimulate the release of dopamine, the amino acid L-tyrosine. It's found in hard cheeses like Parmesan cheese, believe it or not. Some people think they're a little bit addicted to cheese in some ways. Oh, they do? Some people think that, yeah.

L-tyrosine is a supplement as well. Ooh, L-tyrosine. He sounds like he's from Rome, huh? There's a very interesting hairy little bean No joke. This is a hairy little bean called Macuna Purines. Macuna Purines. Macuna Purines? Macuna Purines. This is a velvety bean. If you just put velvet bean L-Dopa, it is 99% L-Dopa, which is the precursor. It gets converted to dopamine. I'll take L8 ball of it.

Remember that movie Awakenings where people were frozen? Yes, yes. With Robert De Niro. That's right. And Robin Williams. Yes, Robin Williams. And they gave those patients, it was a true story. It's based on a story by the neurologist writer, Oliver Sacks. And they gave those people L-DOPA. That velvety little bean is L-DOPA. So you say, can you manufacture it?

You can take the thing that is the precursor. Now, if you do that, you'll feel dopaminergic as neuroscientists say. You'll be like- buzzed, energized. That's Shakira. Absolutely. And then you'll feel the drop. And then methamphetamine stimulates the release as we saw cocaine stimulates release behaviors. Listen, I don't want to demonize dopamine. No, not at all.

Dopamine is, you know, I'm sure I had a surge of dopamine walking in here today. I'm a fan of your show.
