The brain is the central processing unit that is in control

of the mind, body, and all of its functions. A person's diet can

directly affect the ability for the brain to learn and understand

materials. Depending on the brain stimulating chemicals

contained in food, eating the right things can raise one to their

full mental potential. In a sense, people can eat their way to

Neurotransmitters are chemicals that pass information among

cells in the brain. These chemicals are manufactured by nerve

cells that use specific food components as raw material, so the

food a person eats directly effects the chemicals in their brain;

every food creates various neurotransmitters with different

functions. Tryptophan is an amino acid that is found in protein

rich foods and when it is digested it is made into the

neurotransmitter serotonin. Thus a person's mood and mental

ability are greatly influenced by the ratio of the five central

amines, called neurotransmitters, or nervous system chemicals.
