It’s no secret that your brain gets slower as you age. One of the reasons for this change is that your amino acid levels naturally decrease. Your body uses amino acids to build protein‚ which is then used to create chemical messengers in your brain; these messengers‚ called neurotransmitters‚ have a lot of influence on your mood. Dopamine‚ epinephrine‚ norepinephrine‚ and acetylcholine are all neurotransmitters that play a role in helping you feel good and making sure that you can think clearly. When the number of amino acids in your body starts to decline‚ you may experience symptoms like mild depression‚ mood swings‚ trouble concentrating‚ and memory problems.
You can increase your amino acid levels by eating foods that contain them: the best dietary sources are milk‚ eggs‚ meat‚ proteins‚ and poultry‚ but you can also get some from plant-based foods. Still‚ a combination of getting older and following a vegetarian or vegan diet can mean that your amino acid levels are too low. Taking a supplement that provides you with the nutrients you need to protect your brain can help.
