New Study: Glutamine Can Significantly Reduce Brain Fog
New research reveals that glutamine, a common amino acid, can significantly reduce brain fog. This condition, characterized by mental fatigue and lack of clarity, affects many people. The study, though specifics are unavailable, suggests that glutamine supplementation can help alleviate these symptoms.
Glutamine plays a crucial role in brain health. It acts as a building block for vital neurotransmitters, supporting cellular repair and maintaining balance. Its ability to produce GABA, a calming neurotransmitter, is particularly notable. This is especially beneficial during mental fatigue or after prolonged stress, as it helps calm the brain.
Moreover, glutamine supports the glutamate-GABA cycle, preventing cognitive 'crashes' often associated with brain fog. It also aids in repairing the blood-brain barrier, preventing harmful substances from entering the brain. For those with leaky gut syndrome, glutamine has shown promise in healing the gut lining, indirectly reducing inflammation and improving cognitive function.
Found naturally in protein-rich foods like chicken, fish, eggs, and plant-based sources such as spinach, cabbage, and tofu, glutamine offers a simple yet effective way to support mental clarity. While supplements can provide targeted support, especially after illness or intense mental strain, incorporating glutamine-rich foods into one's diet can be beneficial for overall brain health and reducing brain fog.
