Research has linked a number of genes to it, each involved in dopamine and serotonin signaling, calcium channels in nerve cells, or how the brain builds and repairs its connections. This report reads nine of the most studied and, for each one, lists the foods, nutrients and habits linked to that gene.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt serves two groups of people: those with a family history of bipolar disorder who want to see which of these pathways carry variants in their own file, and those with a diagnosis who want a nutrition and lifestyle starting point to bring to their practitioner, alongside treatment rather than instead of it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy the same treatment works for one person and not another\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree examples from this report:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDRD2 and dopamine.\u003c\/strong\u003e DRD2 makes the dopamine D2 receptor, the main target of the antipsychotic medicines used for mania. The report reads more than a dozen DRD2 markers and lists the inputs linked to the gene, including magnesium, green tea, seven to eight hours of sleep and less screen time (blue light).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBDNF and the brain's repair system.\u003c\/strong\u003e BDNF is a protein that helps nerve cells grow, survive and adapt, and studies suggest its levels may be lower in bipolar disorder, particularly during depression. The report's BDNF list includes omega-3, curcumin, exercise, sleep, sunlight and a Mediterranean diet.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHTR2A and serotonin.\u003c\/strong\u003e HTR2A makes a serotonin receptor that many antidepressant and mood-stabilizing medicines act on. The report reads five markers, notes the one linked to a weaker response to citalopram, and lists folate, omega-3 and vitamin D among the inputs to focus on, with glutamate (MSG) to avoid.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThose are three of the 9 genes the report covers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat the report analyzes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDopamine signaling.\u003c\/strong\u003e How your brain receives dopamine and clears it again (DRD1, DRD2, DAT1\/SLC6A3).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSerotonin receptors.\u003c\/strong\u003e The serotonin 2A receptor that many mood medicines act on (HTR2A).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCalcium channels in nerve cells.\u003c\/strong\u003e How neurons generate their electrical signals (CACNA1C).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrain connections and repair.\u003c\/strong\u003e How the brain forms, maintains and repairs its connections, and releases its messengers (BDNF, NCAM1, NRG1, DTNBP1).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat you get\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eA Recommendations Summary.\u003c\/strong\u003e A ranked list of foods, nutrients and lifestyle factors to focus on or avoid, each scored by how strongly your variants point to it.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGene-by-gene pages.\u003c\/strong\u003e A page for each of the nine genes: what it does, the markers read from your file, and the foods, nutrients and habits linked to it, with forms and amounts where the report gives them.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDesigned to work alongside your treatment\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis report is not an alternative to medication, psychotherapy, or clinical care.
