Are your "feel good" neurotransmitters being deprived? The Kynurenine Pathway Unveiled

How tryptophan is diverted away from your "feel good" hormones. Why inflammation and enzymes like IDO/TDO drive overactivity, and the neurotoxic consequences (quinolinic acid, low serotonin, disrupted sleep). Dr. Elise Martin explains links to autism, the role of gut–brain immune signaling, and practical ways to downregulate the pathway using anti-inflammatory nutrients, cofactors (B6, magnesium, zinc), and NAD+ support. Ideal for caregivers, clinicians, and science-curious viewers seeking clear, actionable insight into neuroinflammation and metabolic balance.
