Please take the Dr. Eric Braverman Brain Deficiency Quiz below. Here you can learn which brain lobe is deficient and then purchase the brain formula for that deficiency. So extremely important!
Dopamine is derived from the amino acids tyrosine and phenylalanine.
Acetylcholine is derived from the B-vitamin choline.
Gaba is derived from the amino acid glutamine.
Serotonin is derived from the amino acid tryptophan.
Your age in years differs from the physiological age, and the age of your brain. This is really a way of saying that what is really important for overall health is first and foremost brain health and fitness.
Dr. Braverman’s emphasis on the health of the brain was a wake up call for me. We don’t normally think about it, but your body cannot function optimally if the master controller, your brain is not functioning properly.
The cornerstone of brain health is the balance of your neurotransmitters, which are the chemicals that allow your brain’s processing operations to be carried out. A neurotransmitter is a chemical that is involved in processing signals between neurons and other cells.
The four primary neurotransmitters involved in maintaining a balanced brain are:
- Dopamine
- Acetylcholine
- GABA – Gamma-aminobutyric acid
- Serotonin
Each of your neurotransmitters is essential to proper brain health and when any one of them is deficient or out of balance with the others, problems result which can ultimately affect all body systems, leading to very serious, and even life threatening health conditions.
Your brain age is dependant on the right neurotransmitter balance, and when problems in this area are identified soon enough, it becomes possible in many cases for you to treat these imbalances with diet and over the counter supplements rather than drugs.
Dr. Braverman's Brain Deficiency Quiz
The combination of the brain chemicals dopamine, acetylcholine, gaba, and serotonin control how we think, feel, and behave. Deficiencies in any of these chemicals are also the direct cause of many medical problems. The results of this quiz will show deficiencies in one or more of these biochemicals. Resolving deficiencies is the way to begin regaining our health.

SCORING:
Circle the highest number. This is your most deficient nature, and is the one which is most likely to lead to illness. Often, you burn out your edge just by being yourself. For example, if you are GABA deficient it is likely that you are a dopamine nature, these types often push themselves too hard at work and burn out their edge.
Any category with between 3 and 5 true statements is considered a minor deficiency.
Any category with between 6 and 8 true statements is considered a moderate deficiency.
If you have more than 8 true statements in any one category, it is considered a major deficiency and you need to get help immediately. Minor deficits are the early warning signs of health problems. If ignored, they will eventually lead to more serious deficiencies, ultimately affecting your dominant nature.
If you fell into the moderate deficit range, you probably have already sought medical treatment for any number of ailments. Minor and moderate deficits can be treated without medications and usually respond to a combination of natural/nutritional supplements, hormonal and life-style changes. Major deficits warrant medical treatment and should be addressed immediately. These deficits are treated as diseases, i.e. Parkinson’s disease, severe mood disorders, high blood pressure, memory loss, seizure disorder, depression, etc. These conditions most likely require medications: nutritional, hormonal and/or life-style changes will not be adequate in addressing these problems. If you experience any of these symptoms or illnesses, it is important to consult your doctor and get immediate treatment.
