Need clarity on acetylcholine.

@Helen

Does acetylcholine increase or decrease metabolism?

Is acetylcholine a serotonin antagonist?

Is acetylcholine a gaba antagonist?

Is acetylcholine a dopamine agonist or antagonist?

I think Helen was talking about the ratio of acetylcholine and gaba regarding POIS and the activity of the thyroid and adrenals.

Can u explain?

Sure i cant (wont), the man wrote about it, i have to paraphrase it.

I know that nicotine seems to increase my metabolism and it increases acetylcholine from what I know, so that may help answer your first question.... or could be some other interaction.

Yeah, nicotine + niacin + b1 + manganese all increase acetylcholine. Acetylcholine raises ACTH and Cortisol.

Actually, take manganese off as it increases prolactin and thus calcium which slows metabolism.

Just made me realize why i feel bad on it.

I would also exclude niacin, as it also increase Prolactin. Maybe afterwards it rebounce with increasing ACTH, but there is group of people who take huge amounts of niacin to increase their height, by raising growth hormone.

Is it correct that when acetylcholine is high, serotonin is low by default? @Helen
