Vegetarianism and veganism. Facts and myths. Missing taurine

From a neurological point of view, taurine prevents excitotoxicity, and excitotoxicity is the main cause of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease. It significantly lowers blood pressure and is an antioxidant (i.e., it has preventive effects against cancer). Although a vegetarian diet provides essential amino acids, this means that the body can produce all types of proteins even with a vegetarian diet, but not in sufficient quantities.

Treating depression with tyrosine and tryptophan

Common antidepressants work by increasing the activity of serotonin and noradrenaline receptors in the brain. There are also so-called nutritional supplements (= natural substances not requiring a prescription) that increase the level of the neurotransmitters noradrenaline and serotonin, thus achieving exactly the same effect as prescription antidepressants. In pharmacies or fitness stores, you can buy so-called precursors of these substances. A precursor means a chemically almost identical substance to serotonin and noradrenaline, which is later converted into serotonin and noradrenaline in the body by biosynthesis.

Silicon and its health benefits

Silicon is strategically important for our health. What surprises many people is the fact that silicon is perhaps even more important for our health than vitamin C. I myself was shocked when I started reading about silicon. Silicon has detoxifying effects against aluminum and barium. Silicon accelerates the healing of bone fractures. It plays a very important role in the bones themselves, acting against bone diseases such as osteoporosis. Silicon is the strongest weapon against clogged arteries, against cholesterol, and is a prevention against heart attacks and strokes.
