I need help trying to figure out what’s wrong with me

*"Acute tryptophan depletion diet...."

@Homo_normalis Great results from this. 80g gelatin a day with an otherwise low protein diet and bromocriptine w/ caffeine is the most dopaminergic I ever felt.

An acute tryptophan diet would be an interesting experiment for a day or two (if you have not already tried this). Collagen or gelatin powder as your only protein source. Fruits, maybe potatoes, coconut oil to fill out calories. You can dramatically lower serotonin this way, especially in the brain. https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.94.10.5308. Maybe even a few hours would be enough for a quick check.
If you have already tried this I would be curious what resulted, how you felt, etc.
I haven’t tried this but I will add it to my list.
I often wonder since I don’t produce any stomach acid really that I’m actually protein defieicnt. My urine is always frothy but it never comes back as an issue in the urine tests that check for protein

@KM88 you said you eat meat and carbs, can you explicit, what carbs?
