AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The SynerGene NutraLife Essentials effectively reduce cravings for substances and behaviors associated with RDS by enhancing dopamine and serotonin levels, promoting a healthier lifestyle and improving overall well-being, as demonstrated by clinical trials and research.

Problems solved by technology

The overall effect is inadequate Dopaminergic Activity in the Reward Center of the Brain.
Also, it has been found that the genetic abnormality is associated with aggressive behavior which also stimulates the brain's use of Dopamine.
They would even endure tremendous pain and hardship for an opportunity to press the lever.
Genetic anomalies, long-term continuing stress, or long-term abuse of substances can lead to a self-sustaining pattern of abnormal craving behavior in both animals and humans.
Compulsive diseases include pathological gambling and excessive sexual activity.

example i

Composition A

[0209] The invention includes the intravenous administration of a new class of anti-craving compositions provided by substances which inhibit the breakdown of endogenous substances such as enkephalins and endorphins. Specifically, D-phenylalanine, DL-phenylalanine, D-Leucine, DL-Leucine, and hydocinnamic acid, each in an intravenous solution in sufficient concentration to bring about enkephalinase inhibition which would significantly lower alcohol intake in animals and humans. The anti-alcohol desire effect has been observed in animals genetically prone to choose alcohol over water, but this effect has never been observed via the intravenous route. The inventors believe that the intravenous route would be advantageous since the dose needed would be much less than what is required by the oral dose. In a series of experiments the exact dose will be determined in both humans and animals to at least reduce alcohol or drug intake.

example ii

Composition B

[0214] The inventor believes that the substrate for RDS behaviors is mediated by regions in the brain's “pleasure center” or “reward centers” which are high in a number of neurotransmitters including dopamine. These regions include the dopamine-containing nucleus accumbens, and its projection to limbic structures and frontal cortex. It has been observed that if dopamine projections to limbic and cortical areas are lessioned the self-administration of psychoactive drugs which release dopamine (e.g. alcohol, cocaine, heroin, nicotine etc) by animals are greatly reduced. Moreover, selective dopamine receptor antagonists, like haloperidol, atenuate or block alcohol and cocaine self-administration in animals. Similarly, in humans, pretreatment with dopamine receptor antagonits will block stimulant-induced “euphoria”. Additionally, dopamine receptor agonists (e.g. bromocryptine, apomorphine etc) have rewarding actions. These and other studies suggest that the lack of “reward...

Composition C

In this composition the inventors are including a tryptophan concentration enhancing amount of all salts and chelates of chromium (e.g. picolinate, nicotinate, ablion chelate etc.).

Background on Chromium

[0231] Body cells need chromium to keep insulin working properly as well as a host of other important biological actions. Scientists agree, that insulin directs the movement of digested food into the body's cells and affects how that food is used. When insulin doesn't act as intended, blood glucose and fat aren't stored and used properly. This malfunction leads to obesity, heart disease, or diabetes.

[0232] Our diets contain little chromium, and what chromium we do eat is often in a form that is difficult for the body to absorb. Therefore, chromium must be combined with a substance that will allow this substance to enter the bloodstream. A number of forms include picolinate, polynicotinate as well as Ablion chelate. Dozens of studies have proven that chromium, in th...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a kit and an intravenously administrable preparation, both with a signal transmitter precursor, an enhancer of precursor uptake, and an inhibitor of neurotransmitter reuptake or signal transmitter catabolism. The kit also contains an appropriate swab for obtaining oral cells suitable for allelic analysis. The intravenous formulation contains similar materials and, in some cases, ethanol. Either the kit composition or the intravenous formulation may be used as guided by a subjects allelic analysis. Collections of particular alleles, especially those relating to neural system are comprehensible in terms of likelihood of success in the administration of an intraveinous formulation or ingestion of components of the subject kit.
