The Nervous System
An Unrivaled Microprocessor
The nervous system, which includes your brain, cranial nerves, spinal cord and all the peripheral nerves in your body, is an complex and highly specialized network that organizes, explains and directs interaction between you, your other CENIGENT systems and the world around you.
Your nervous system is the control center for both voluntary and involuntary functions such as heart beat, movement, balance, eating, breathing, learning, cognition, decision making, and coordination.
It swiftly communicates with and impacts your other CENIGENT systems, and is impacted by other systems including endocrine, immune, genetic and cellular systems. The communication network in your brain is a maze of several trillion connections capable of performing 20 billion calculations per second. |

How does this network operate? There are three major players:
1. |
Special nerve cells called neurons, which
power the message |
2. |
Neurotransmitters, which create the
message |
3. |
Receptors, which receive the message |
Neurotransmitters are chemicals, mainly found in nerve cells, that communicate information and give instruction to other cells in the nervous system, as well as elsewhere in the CENIGENT systems.
There are many neurotransmitters in the human body; approximately ten small neurotransmitters and over fifty neuroactive peptides are known:
Norepinephrin: Needed for motivation, alertness and concentration.
Acetylcholine: Crucial for memory, muscle movement digestion and lowering chronic inflammation.
GABA: Primarily quiets the brain and directly impacts the endocrine system; it has even been shown to slow certain cancer cells.
Serotonin: Naturally calming and mood lifting.
Dopamine: Needed for healthy assertiveness, movement, sexual arousal, and proper immune health. Known as the “reward” neurotransmitter. Alcohol, caffeine and sugar have all been shown to lower dopamine action!
Your CENIGENT assessment includes a comprehensive evaluation and detailed testing of several neurotransmitter metabolites, environmental neurotoxins, numerous neurological and genetic markers and imaging studies of your brain, followed by a detailed action plan including targeted amino acid therapy (TAAT) to allow for peak nervous system optimization.
