​

FOOD FOR THOUGHT!
We have approximately 6,000 thoughts per day! Each thought is an energy ‘wave’ of activity across the network of nerves namely the BRAIN.

 

Thousands of others

​

The connections are DENDRITES. 

​

When DENDRITES meet there’s a gap called synapse

 

Its across the gap that messages are sent from one to another.

 

The sending station is called a ‘RECEPTOR’

 

HERE IS THE IMPORTANT BIT!
The sending and receiving stations are made up of essential fats, found in fish, seeds:

hospholipase, found in eggs and meat; amino acids, the raw material of protein. The messages themselves are made out of 
amino acids. Different amino acids make different connections with different functions such as:

​

*Keeping you happy (serotonin, tryptophan)

​

*Motivation (adrenaline, dopamine)

​

Converting amino acids into neurotransmitters is a complex job. Enzymes in the brain do this job.

​

Intelligent nutrients - Vitamins – minerals – special amino acids

​

You need the right amount of:

GLUCOSE, GOOD FATS, AMINO ACIDS, INTELLIGENT NUTRIENTS AND HOSPHOLIPASE!

 

THE BODY AND MIND CONNECTION! PERFECT PARTNERS

​

We used to believe all the thinking was done with the brain. Now we have discovered that the digestive system contains 100 million neurons, producing as many neurotransmitters as the brain. The gut produces two – thirds of Serotonin (feel good neurotransmitter).

​

Every time you eat you are sending messages to the brain and the gut, they work together.

​

The right foods will make you happy and the wrong foods will make you sad.

​

Well being workshop hand out certain foods feed your brain they:

- Improve concentration

- Keep your serotonin (serotonin makes you feel happy) levels healthy

- Protect the neuron and connectors firing quickly

- Improve memory and help you to retain knowledge

​
