Does anybody know about Peat talking about negtive ions increasing Co2 and therefore deceasing serotonin?
I have a device that creates negative ions and after i used it today i felt super sleepy ,pulse was up and had to take a nap and was kind of focused on reading stuff .
If this is true it could be a very productive efficient tool to keep CO2 in the body up and serotonin low. since a negative ion generator could be made from something as easy as a hair drier for example.
I found very little on ray peat and negative ions. here are 2 pages that did say at least something . this a quote from the second articl e(doesnt refer to peat though) :
“Research by Dr. Leslie Hawkins at the University of Surrey, UK, showed that levels of the hormone serotonin in the blood, brain and other tissues seemed to be reduced by negative ions. Serotonin is a substance that plays a part in brain chemistry, and imbalances in it lead to depression and other mental disturbances. Dr. Hawkins suggested that air rich in negative ions has a stimulating effect while too many positive ions, and thus high levels of serotonin in the body, are depressing. This may explain why ionisers help in cases of irritability and stress.”
