Thu Feb 06 00:33:51 UTC 2014 <BingoBoingo> herbijudlestoids: But in vitro most 5-HTP becomes various histamines as opposed to becoming serotinin.
Thu Feb 06 00:33:42 UTC 2014 <herbijudlestoids> 5-htp is the l-dopa of serotonin...is what i meant
Thu Feb 06 00:32:38 UTC 2014 <herbijudlestoids> BingoBoingo: you misunderstand, i was referring to 5-htp being a direct serotonin precursor (equiv of L-DOPA for dopamine) and l-tryptophan being broader/less acute
Thu Feb 06 00:32:30 UTC 2014 <BingoBoingo> herbijudlestoids: I haven't taken a bio class since 7th grade.
Thu Feb 06 00:32:07 UTC 2014 <BingoBoingo> herbijudlestoids: 5-HTP is mostly a precusor of things that aren't catecholamines anyway
Thu Feb 06 00:32:05 UTC 2014 <herbijudlestoids> BingoBoingo: im not a neuroscientist, but i did used to work at the largest neuroscience research facility in australia. consider my knowledge on the topic a poor carbon copy
Thu Feb 06 00:31:32 UTC 2014 <herbijudlestoids> asciilifeform: dead drop is not my requirement
Thu Feb 06 00:31:16 UTC 2014 <asciilifeform> herbijudlestoids: four octets ought to be a roomy enough 'dead drop' for anyone
Thu Feb 06 00:31:08 UTC 2014 <BingoBoingo> herbijudlestoids: I think you read pharmacology equivalents to the National Enquirer a bit too much.
Thu Feb 06 00:30:35 UTC 2014 <herbijudlestoids> same way that 5-htp versus l-tryptophan
Thu Feb 06 00:30:24 UTC 2014 <herbijudlestoids> BingoBoingo: i mean acute as in relative to l-tyrosine
Thu Feb 06 00:28:41 UTC 2014 <BingoBoingo> herbijudlestoids: Your chemistry isn't wrong, but it is missing 4 steps and 9 pathways.
Thu Feb 06 00:27:52 UTC 2014 <herbijudlestoids> BingoBoingo: um, no, the beans contain L-DOPA which is an acute dopamine precursor, l-tyrosine is much more effective and less acute, precursor to all catecholamines
Thu Feb 06 00:27:09 UTC 2014 <herbijudlestoids> asciilifeform: ah right. thx...i appreciate the gesture :)
Thu Feb 06 00:27:05 UTC 2014 <BingoBoingo> herbijudlestoids: If you want catecholamine precursors though Lima/Fava beans work just fine
Thu Feb 06 00:26:56 UTC 2014 <asciilifeform> herbijudlestoids: recipe, for stowing four octets in the blockchain.
Thu Feb 06 00:25:07 UTC 2014 <herbijudlestoids> i dont take any synthetics, l-tyrosine is a metabolic precursor you can easily obtain from food :)
Thu Feb 06 00:24:31 UTC 2014 <herbijudlestoids> asciilifeform: thanks for your generosity i guess, what is this?
Thu Feb 06 00:23:33 UTC 2014 <asciilifeform> herbijudlestoids: i'm feeling generous, have an example:
Thu Feb 06 00:22:48 UTC 2014 <herbijudlestoids> catecholamine precursor.
