Balance Brain Chemistry, Get Back Your Life
Re-Establish Brain Balance Naturally
At our clinics, Dr. Jacobs and Dr. Cates help people suffering from the many possible mental and physical health challenges caused by neurotransmitter deficiency and imbalance, re-gain and achieve mental and physical vitality. We accomplish this faster, cheaper and with fewer side effects compared to what is commonly recommended for treating anxiety, depression and other mental disorders; even if you have tried numerous pharmaceutical -or even natural- approaches or have exhausted what conventional medicine has to offer.
Our overall health is greatly influenced by neurotransmitter balance. Neurotransmitters are chemicals that regulate brain, muscle, nerve and organ function. They communicate signals between the between the approximately 100 billion complexly interconnected neurons that make up the brain. Our sense of well-being, pain perception, inflammation regulation, immune system function, and our ability to think clearly and maintain healthy attitude and behaviors are all dependent upon healthy neurotransmitter balance. Neurotransmitter deficiency is extremely common, and is a caused by trauma (emotional or physical) and stressful lifestyle and environmental factors.
Some common problems that may result from neurotransmitter deficiency and imbalance include:
|
Obesity Anxiety Panic Attacks OCD Insomnia |
PMS Menopause Symptoms Depression Fibromyalgia Chronic Fatigue |
Migraines / Headaches Irritable Bowel Syndrome Attention Deficit Learning Disorders Burn-Out / Exhaustion |
|
Conventionally used medications used for depression and other mental disorders are primarily aimed at normalizing chemical balance within the brain; however, improvement is temporary with this approach and prolonged use will very often deplete essential neurotransmitters. Over time, the patients condition remains unresolved and often worsens to the need for higher dosages or switching to other, more potent -and potentially more hazzardous- drugs.
Amino Acid Therapy
Neurotransmitter are primarily manufactured in the body from specific amino acids. We get amino acids in our diet by eating protein-rich foods. Using specific amino acid supplements is a natural way to help optimize neurotransmitter balance. Supplementation may also complement or eliminate the need for anti-depressants and other psychiatric medications, and can help restore positive outlook and overall function. Amino acid therapy taken with supportive nutrients can take effect immediately and bring about permanent change. Patients with a history of either severe psychological trauma, brain injuries or drug abuse may experience more gradual changes over time as the nervous system literally heals from trauma and/or drug toxicity.
Getting Back in Balance
Due to the complexity of the nervous system, many factors must be considered when prescribing neurotransmitter precursors and supportive nutrients. Because there are many overlapping symptoms among different neurotransmitter deficiency states, it can be difficult for a novice to correctly determine which neurotransmitters to address. It is therefore recommended that you work closely with either Dr. Jacobs or Dr. Cates so that you do not worsen existing neurotransmitter abnormalities -or create new ones! The doctors will guide you through a program that normalizes neurotransmitter levels in the correct order of relevance and importance so that you can safely benefit from this life-changing therapy that can, literally, help you get your life back.
You may be a candidate for neurotransmitter balancing if the following applies to you:

What should I do? I have ADHA and no insurance. What can I do to get my brain in balance Naturally?
I wish I had read this months ago. I believe 80% of what ails me is based on my lack of ability to concentrate and focus! This adds stress in my personal and work life. I have also noticed a more negative attitude and basically "Grouchy" demeanor over the past 12 months. My basic outlook has become "gloom and doom". This is not my typical approach.
Last year I accompolished phenomial results at work and received a top award. This year I have quickly fallen into a devil may care attitude and I hate it. I usually am a leader and role model for my peers. this year i could only direct them and say "do as I say not as I do"
If I could get this part of my health back on track.....the rest would follow I know it! I am excited about the possibility!
Do you think I am a candidate? When can we start? How often would I need to get to the office?

Marlene Dugger
@George Gordon: It might be helpful to read the book The Mood Cure by Julia Ross. Another site to check out is http://www.truehope.com/. Like it says in the article, it can be hard to find what works on your own but these may help.
Hello Drs. Jacobs and Cates: I am hoping to hear your medical experience to restore normal brain chemistry. My wife Patricia developed a problem with plueral effusion. Her kidney function was considered the cause of this.. At the present time her Bun is 37mg the Cr is 1.1 and the GFR is 48.. I did medical lab work all my work life. During her hospital confinement she had a thoracetsis done 2 times and the Dr. elected to do a plueradesis to hopfully obliterate the pathway for the plueral fluid to enter the chest cavity. I am not sure what the powder composition was that was istilled ito her chest cavity for the plueradesis procedure... I think it may have been Magnesium sulfate but not sure. I know it was quite painful for her and she received Ativan and Morphine and Xanex and Compazine for nausea from the CKD. We were referred to a Neurologist for her depression and she put her on Effexor 75mg and Ambien 20mg for sleep. But now she is taking Tranzadone 50 mg for sleep. Her personlity is totally unlike she used to be.. Has no interest in anything wants to sleep a lot and appetite is not good.. She is on medications for hypertension and Lasix 40mg for kidney function Klorcon for K+ supplementation. (10 meq) The Dr had put her on Xenazine 12.5mg (Tetrabenazine) for the Tardive Dyskensia she has now..Dr. said this can be th result of certain types of medications. This drug is used for Huntington Chorea she said but may help Patricia. She is not taking this medication now as it caused more muscle spasams. I can send her medication profile to you if you would like that information.. I would be very interested to know what you think about this and what ever would help her I would be most grateful. Please let me know what you would advise me. Thank you so much , Russell Mosher 1-815-633-5844 email [email protected]
Hi Dr. Jacobs and Dr. Cates,
Do you work with kids with autism? My son is very high-functioning, but his anxiety and OCD perseverations have gotten worse. He also has leaky gut, and the food intolerances and IGG levels have increased. Wish other family members would restrict food, too. Could give you more info.
Thank you for any help/advice,

Dear Dr.Thad Jacob, my name is Alfred, I'm 35 years old man, im facing some problem with my health which i know with your help and advice i can be in order again, The problem is this, i started masturbating since last 15 years, because i leave in different country why my wife leave in different country as well we are away from each other due to our work program, i dint like to involve with other woman due to this i engage in this act for the past years, so right now i understand that im not healthy the was i was before, i feel so tired and weak, even sight is becoming little weak, sometimes i feel very hot in head, according to my readings i head that i can control it and regain my brain balance again, i will like you to advice me on what food i should eat to gain back my lost spam and gain my self back again, presently im writing from India.
The whole section where you described the neurotransmitter issues describe me to a T. I have done all of these and have been suffering from each of those symptoms. I really want to be balanced out for my kids and my family. Im tired of being this way. Im addicted to Buenos and bi-polar drugs. I've been on most if not all of those drugs and sugars you have listed. I really need help and want to be balanced out. What can I do? Please help me.
I've been in a living hell since I tried drugs last year. I only did them once as I was curious. It's not something I have done before or since. But since then I collapsed at work and went to hospital 3 times. I've seen a doctor for multiple blood tests, I even had a collanoscopy done because of IBS related symptoms. I went through a three month stage of not having enough energy to get off the couch. When I finally forced myself out of bed for uni this semester I started feeling better but I still have this massive block in my head. It's like something is physically sitting inside the front of my brain. There are a lot of contributing factors such as over exercise and lack of sleep but I really think it was the drugs that tipped me into this state I am in. Depression, anxiety, IBS, out of body feelings etc are all part of my symptoms. I try to keep a positive outlook everyday and exercise and eat healthily everyday. But it's been nearly a year and I'm not getting better. Recently even suicidal thoughts. The amount of emotional support I receive is endless but even so I'm at my wits end. I'm only 21 I can't live the rest of my life like this. I had none of these problems before. Please help?

Hello, Do you think I am a candidate? I'm 53 and am having thyroid problems, I do take meds for them. I have suffered with ADD for most of my life and have issues with losing weight and craving sweets, chocolate ect. I do exercise riding my bicycle for over an hour and a half about 5 days a week, and although I love riding the bike in the park, and sweat a lot, I'm not losing any weight and I just get frustrated even more! I'm 5'7" and weigh over 170. Have problems staying asleep even though I take melatonin and Tryptofan. I don't want to take any meds for the ADD and I would prefer to stay away from medication as much as possible. So if anything can be done, I would be happy to find out! Thank you!

Hiiii i am rithik agarwal from india studying in class 10.Before telling my problem it might sound egoistic and stupid but i am a very intelligent boy and highly interllectual.I used to always come first in my class and my parents and sisters are a lot a lot from me weather its a big university or college.But the last year and the half has not gone according to my expectations and i let my parents down in many ways.It all started in november 2013 that i first inherit the habit of masturbating which i probably got from my father.I used to watch a lot a lot of sex videos and masturbate on seeing them.It was at that time a very good experience and my stress about sexual partner decreased.Then my performances in class started to toil down continously and at the annual examinations i got my worst marks in my schooling career.But at that i was not knowing the ill effects of masturbartion at that time.Then also i watched sex videos for 2-3 hours daily and masturbate then slowly and slowly and slowly my time for watching sex reduced and it was reduced to probably 5-10 minutes daily probably after 1 year from time i started to watch sex videos.Then it is reduced to 2-3 minutes in 3 days and slowly again it reduced to 2-3 minutes in 7 days.On december 2014 i started to feel the ill effects of masturbation and i got into depression and generalised anxiety disorder commonly known as gad.It was a very painful experience as i was always sad and crying and i can't ill afford to concentrate on my studies during my examination.Then i shared my problem with my family and they agreed with my decision to go to phychatrist.I went to my phychatrist one day before my maths examination and i told him my experience but i didn't tell him about masturbation and watching sex videos as i was too embrassed to share with him.He prescribed me a medicine which my mother strictly refuses to take as she fears taking medicine will only make me addicted to medicine whole life.Then i performed poorly in my exams anf the boy who came first in examinations suddenly come in 13-14th position.My teacher were worried about my performances but i can't tell them the truth.Then i did more and more research on adverse effects of masturbation and i got my reason for performing so poorly in my examination.The reason is the neurotransmitter that released in brain during masturbation and one thing i also forget to say to you is that i also ejacuted during masturbation which releases dopamine and seretonin in brain that directly affects my decision making,goal directed behaviour,emotions and etc etc.Despite having this much knowledge about the topic i can't control my addiction of masturbating and after masturbating i always got sucidal thoughts and about my family and sisters.I really don't know what to do should i go phychatrist again to get medication to balance my hormones.Please help me help me help me it is really affecting my daily life,social life,decision making and goal directed bahaviour please help me help and sorry my age is 16

Thankyou for your article..I have been diagnosed w neuropothy all over even face..I have also been diagnosed w endometriosis about 3 yrs ago..my neurologist recently found out by me doing an eeg home study that the neuropothy can be caused by a chemical imbalance and that I have small seizures.He has prescribed vimpat to see if that helps but I haven't seen any improvement from it..Am I a good candidate for the folic acid suppliments? I have had an emotional trauma over 10 years ago and have had trouble dealing w it
Most of the time I'm pretty good but I've noticed periods where my brain just gets stuck in bad places - For the most part I can counter it but there was one really bad episode where I was going back and forth between anxiety and depression, which simply seemed to fade over time.
I've been having a much more tolerable version of the same thing, it seems - Really mild but still a horrible bother and I figure it's just my chemicals doing weird stuff.
What would you reccomend for someone who has bouts of this but is relatively happy most of the time? Is it attributed to sudden changes in diet, are there certain ways to target it when it becomes an issue? Usually I'm getting regular exercise and eating pretty decently.
Please help - took an antibiotic that blocked my brain - anxiety - fear - cant function -
@George Gordon: HELP
I just do not know what to do anymore...tired of meds...tired of feeling like this...just so tired of it all and do not know where to look anymore. Everything just feels hopeless. I have my times when I feel OK, but then the rest is just such an overwhelming feeling that just consumes me. Even reaching out in this message feels hopeless and yet I guess I am still trying to find a solution... a natural solution just to get threw life and enjoy.
I had my first drink at age 24. Every time I drink (even if it is just one drink in 30 days), I have the disturbing mental imbalance. It lasts for weeks or months (sometimes disappears in days). Symptoms include lack of concentration, lack of social desire and difficulty in skills like sports or driving. I feel like it is a brain chemistry problem and the time it take to get back to normal is just metabolism.

I have adhd, im a night owl, I took adderall because of the adhd. Everything now is not as good as it used to be...It feels like my brain is clogged or something, it's very hard to become happy and when I do become happy, it's not for long, it's hard to smell things now too. It seems like i'm too laid back now as well, like I don't care about anything anymore and I never feel much emotion, only anger, sadness and a lot of stress. Im overwhelmed by small things like brushing my teeth. Please help, what medication do I need to fix every single thing I named above. I can't stand this, this darn chemical imbalance, my adderall must've done this to me, before I started taking adderall, I could smell, I was happy, never stressed, it was perfect. PLEASE HELP.

@Nathan: hi Nathan, you seem to have Derealisation/Depersonalisation. The drugs have possibly effected your serotonin and GABA levels in your brain. I would recommend spot meditation. You could possibly have a down regulated Gastriointestnial Tract. (Your gut) you could possibly benefit from eatting good foods and timing your carb intake carfuly
Hello Dr. Jacobs,
First thank you so much for the work and help that you do. I'm basically a healthy 68 year old woman that has an overactive mind, example, singing the same song in my mind 24/7. Something is out of whack and has kept me from healthy sleep for 15 years. Its very difficult for me without sleep. I am emotionally healthy and happy but my system is oveactive and supplements seem to have turned on me. Right now I am getting a little relief from Trypophan but still I am way too sensitive to too many items. I don't do caffeine, cannot even do decaf tea. Please help. I need to sleep and balance these branin chemicals.
Thank you so much.

@Jessica McPherson:
Suffering from chemical imblnace from last two monthss
Anxiety, out of control stress to nose bleeds and stomach sickness. Mental frames completely different. I went vegan and messed my chemical balance off. Very hard past couple weeks. Very not normal inside.
Hello, My 12-year old son seems to have some sort of chemical imbalance in the daytime. I was thinking maybe he is bipolar, but not sure if he fits quite into those symptoms. He is extremely defiant and will die on whatever hill he chooses. He hardly gets along with anyone at school. He won't participate in any sports or activities except he is still in Boy Scouts. There is no way of reasoning with him. He cries and throws tantrums a lot. He has threatened to hurt himself and has on more than one occasion claims that I want to kill him. He refuses to eat a lot of times and will not go see a therapist. He, however, is rational, friendly and loving very late at night. My husband thinks he has anxiety and depression. My son has been like this pretty much since he was a toddler though it may be getting worse now that he is older because his viciousness is much more calculating. Can you suggest anything?
Question: I was using a supposed all natural supplement for erections and it worked good, but it gave me a very bad headache and I noticed that I started feeling depressed,panicky, and anxiety. I tried changing my diet and it helped some, but I cannot fully recover. I have feelings of being disconnected, fear, tired, and lack of motivation. What can I do to fix this? I believe I caused an imbalance of brain chemicals because of what was in the pills.

@linda naidoo: What drugs did you take that one time that left you in this condition? It sounds like you picked up an infection so I'm wondering if it was either mushroom or something that's injected and therefore can be quite contaminated.

Chemical missing in my brain can you please help thank you so much
Hello doctors, I started experiencing head paresthesia (heavy head sensations 24 hours a day), and no blood flow to my extremities. I literally don't have blood flowing to my body. This was about 18 months ago.... I have been clean and sober from all substances for last 3 years.
I was diagnosed with severe synaptic syndrome and adrenal fatigue. I was told I literally have depleted all of the neurotransmitters in my body. Heavy ecstasy, alcohol, benzo usage for 12 years, and was a long distance runner running half marathons during (I'm an anomaly). Doctor said I have about12 to 18 months for me to get it corrected, but his prescriptions don't seem to be helping me much. Figured you might be able to give me some guidance.
Thanks. Much love.
Helllo Dr’s, my name is Atifa. I’m suffers from anxiety and bipolar disorder. Last January I had phycosis after leaving lexapro for few weeks. Since then I’m taking antipsychotics. For past 4moths I’m suffering from extreme anxiety and panic attacks. I have started taking Prozac and Ativan to control it. Panic attacks have subsided but anxiety and fear is still there. Doctors are saying it is ocd. As I’m also suffering from intrusive thoughts and low self esteem. I’m very desperately in need of help. I would really appreciate your response. Many thanks.

Hello, I mixed ayahuasca and mdma which caused me psychosis. I read they are especially dangerous to combine as they can cause serotonin syndrome. I am now diagnosed with schizophrenia, but I think the imbalance or sensitivity to neurotransmitters has caused my disease. Are there any way to restore balance or heal my brain? Thanks
