Hello. Welcome to the chemicals of your brain. Today: glutamate. Glutamate is the primary excitatory neurotransmitter in your brain. It basically is the “gas petal” of the brain. Too much makes your cells work themselves to death and causes cognitive problems, and too little also leads to cognitive problems. Too much can also cause seizures. Be careful when messing with glutamate. I will now take questions. Please ask your questions! edit: 'gas pedal' - not 'petal' I did legitimately struggle...
