A cyclical imbalance in metabolic systems

Many AS individuals experience a cyclical imbalance in their metabolic systems. The thyroid, immune system, digestive system, neuronal system and hormonal system are in a constant state of disorder, leading to DTTS.

Among the consequences, a disturbed distribution of the following is observed:

● Serotonin

● Noradrenaline

● Adrenaline

● Inhibitors (such as GABA)

● Dopamine (which regulates, among other things, emotion, stress responses, sleep and appetite)

● Melatonin (involved in sleep and the immune system)

● Cytokines in the digestive system

● Cortisol (the stress hormone, which regulates blood sugar levels and also dampens strong sensory reactions)
