individual. Neurotransmitters are basically of two types, excitory and inhibitory. Catecholamine and Acetylcholine the excitory neurotransmitters in nature where as GABA is inhibitory in nature. Encephalin and Endorphin are endogenous opiate like substances found in basal ganglia, thalami, and brain stem. Food like curds and carbohydrates have high concentration of these opiates rise in brain and can be diagnosed by brain scan tests. Treatment
Violence may arise from other sources many of them unexpected, such reasons include intake of steroids, alcohol, cocaine, brain injury. Out of 70, 000 to 90, 000 Americans who annually suffer from brain damage resulting from injuries, many experience altered brain chemistry and engage in explosive violence. New insights about the causes of violent behavior suggests that many types of violence, especially impulsive violence may be just like mental disorders -- a dysfunction of brain that can be treated and prevented.
If we know the biology of aggression , we might also be able to manipulate it in ways that we donít like. We do not want to stigmatize people as aggressive...because of their brain chemistry. The prospect of being able to determine a person's propensity for violence by measuring levels of serotonin and nor adrenaline. Antiviolence medications conceivably could be given, perhaps forcibly to people with abnormal levels. Violence can be controlled and by manipulating brain levels of serotonin—was a profound discovery. Neuro-modulators like cyclic AMP, Melatonin, Tyamine, Putative neurotransmitters are other substances which modify brain behavior. Tyramine after ingestion produce tachycardia , flushing, head ache, restlessness, excitement, it is found in abundant amount in cheese, tinned food, meat , pickles etc. Melatonin secreted through pineal gland resembles in structure and activity to ACTH. It has been pattern , awake sleep cycle. It maintains the circadian rhythm. Changes in level may lead to insomnia. Hyper activity and aggressive individuals have blood levels of excitory neurotransmitters especially catecholamine. It has been of daily observation that immediately after administration of catecholamine aggression can be seen. In contrast to it the hyper activity of cerebral neurons can be suppressed by administration of GABA."
