How do you lower glutamate levels?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Mg, D3, Theanine, O3: Since calcium influx into brain cells is the primary mechanism that cause cell death from glutamate, it is necessary to block the glutamate (nmda) receptor with magnesium, vitamin d3, theanine from green tea & fish oil just to name a few.
