Method for self-regulating stress-reduction using folic acid enriched dietary supplement compositions

摘要

A food supplement compositions combining suitable precursor substrates with folic acid, whereby methionine is produced in sufficient quantity to produce a sufficient quantity of met-enkephalin specially formulated for coping with stressful assaults upon the human body. By a coenzymatic mechanism folic acid effectively accelerates the transformation of a substrate primarily comprising DL-phenylalanine, L-phenylalanine, L-glutamine, and L-tryptophan to met-enkephalin end product. Use of this food supplement enables enkephalins to accumulate within the human hypothalamus, thereby increasing the levels of endogenous opioids. By increasing endogenous opioid levels, the human body is engendered with a self-regulating faculty for coping with stressful assaults upon physiological and psychological equilibrium. A methodology for supplementing the nutritional intake of certain neurotransmitter precursor substrates, wherein patients of all ages may routinely quell continuous stressful attacks upon their normal physiological and psychological functioning.
