NOTES:
As you age:
Dopamine receptor sites decline, making you more resistant to the effects of dopamine
With repetitive emotional traumas the brain FIGHT OR FLIGHT BRAIN
operates from the amygdala and weakens use of PFC
you become sympathetic dominant
STUDIES:
1. Food Restriction Increases Dopamine Receptor Levels in Obese Rats
eat whatever they wanted vs. restrict calories by 70%
calorie restriction increased D2 receptor numbers
LINK: https://www.bnl.gov/newsroom/news.php...
“The scientists found that genetically obese rats had lower levels of dopamine D2 receptors than lean rats. They also demonstrated that restricting food intake can increase the number of D2 receptors, partially attenuating a normal decline associated with aging”
2. Effect of 48 h Fasting on Autonomic Function, Brain Activity, Cognition, and Mood in Amateur Weight Lifters
48 h fasting resulted in:
higher parasympathetic activity
decreased resting frontal brain activity
increased anger
improved prefrontalcortexrelated cognitive functions, such as mental flexibility and set

3. More ketones, more signaling of BDNF
BDNF alerts neurons in the hippocampus that a metabolic switch has happened
this is when repair & new neuron production kicks in
neurons respond to the GtoK switch by engaging a ‘cellpreservation mode’ and adopt a ‘cellgrowth mode’ by activation of certain signaling pathways

4. Food Restriction Increases Glutamate ReceptorMediated Burst Firing of Dopamine Neurons
Increased dopamine release
Dopamine neurons were more excitable following chronic food restriction
