Dopamine vs. Serotonin

Which hormone makes you happiest?

You know that warm fuzzy feeling you get when you think of someone you love? It feels like magic, but your body manufactured that. In its complex (and even magical) intelligence, the human body makes several “feel-good” hormones and neurotransmitters supporting emotions and physical feelings of ease, contentment, love, and euphoria – dopamine, serotonin, endorphins, and oxytocin.

Each has its role in shaping our view of the world and consequent actions. Marketers in several industries have taken special notice of dopamine and serotonin in aid of selling products from computer games, ads, apps, and drugs. The excess or deficit of these powerful hormones can contribute to addiction, depression, anxiety and disease. Let’s look at what each of these can do, and how understanding them can boost your happiness and health.

Known as the body’s endogenous (selfmade) “pleasure drug,” dopamine bestows a feeling of pleasure in the brain’s reward system. “Sex, shopping, smelling cookies baking in the oven” can all trigger a dopamine rush, writes Health.harvard. edu. This release reinforces our desire to repeat the sequence. In the short term, dopamine can increase attention, energy, and focus while boosting your mood with the thrill of the chase and anticipation of the teased reward.

becomes conditioned to a certain level of reward, and it doesn’t feel as good. The spike of the rush shrinks. Now you need two, then three “wins” to get the same reward you got the first time. This contributes to many addictions, from eating, gambling, shopping, online gaming, and alcohol and drugs.

Some healthier ways to raise dopamine include meditation and eating foods high in tyrosine, including poultry, dairy, avocadoes, bananas, pumpkins and sesame seeds.

SEROTONIN – THE CONTENTMENT CHEMICAL

We think of serotonin as a brain chemical, but 9095% is made and stored in our digestive tract, from the amino acid tryptophan.

Serotonin teams up with endorphins after a good workout to produce the feeling of elation called the “runner’s high”. It’s a slower build, but longer lasting than the spikes of good feelings we get from dopamine.

Linked to digestion, it also works with melatonin and cortisol to support healthy sleep patterns.

Serotonin is perhaps most well-known today for what we think happens when levels dip. An imbalance or deficit of serotonin is often blamed for depression and used to support the widespread prescription of SSRI anti-depressants –but that theory is being challenged.

Dopamine is formed when an amino acid named tyrosine is converted into another, L-dopa, and enzymes change that into dopamine. The reward system is a very old, integral process to human function. This conversion is happening in neurons at the base of the brain – our ancient “lizard brain” as its sometimes called. It was the reward we got for finding a cache of sugary food or running down a mammoth. It gave us the focus to remember where we found the blueberries and the motivation to push past exhaustion. It helps coordinate movement, keeping us searching, consuming, accumulating, and expanding. Novel experiences and achieving goals release dopamine.

Computer programmers have learned to use this system to keep us playing video games, staying engaged with web content or apps. Food scientists make food hyperpalatable so that we “can’t eat just one.”

The downside of running the dopamine system on repeat is that the body, always looking for efficiencies, progressively down-regulates the reward given. The baseline downshifts as your body

A meta-analysis of multiple studies by the journal Nature published in July 2022 concluded that “there is no convincing evidence that depression is associated with, or caused by, lower serotonin concentrations or activity.” It posits that positive effects from SSRIs may come from numbing emotions rather than improving serotonin levels and adds that some studies show long-term SSRI use lowers rather than raises serotonin levels in the body over time.

Steady serotonin levels make you feel balanced, calm, and content. The buzz created by serotonin may be milder than the rush of dopamine, but it’s more sustainable than that of dopamine.

So how can you increase serotonin?

Get outside – especially early in the morning. According to Shawn Stevenson’s “Model Health Show” podcast, studies show sunlight exposure is connected to higher serotonin levels. It’s especially optimal to get your dose of sun as soon as you wake up, as close to dawn as possible to help calibrate your circadian rhythms. Morning sunlight will help increase melatonin and decrease cortisol production in the evening, helping you

Your Best Life

BUSY TIMES AHEAD FOR MAGNOLIA CHAMBER

e Magnolia Chamber of Commerce is seeking sponsors and donations for the holiday lights.

“To light up the Village again at the holidays we need your support. Please donate now so we can assure a bright few months this winter,” the chamber said in a press release. Winterfest will take place starting Dec. 2 in the a ernoon.

SUPPORT MERCHANT CANDY EXPENSES FOR VILLAGE TRICK OR TREAT

Halloween in the Village returns on Tuesday, Oct. 31. e fun and festive event will run from 4-6 p.m. in Magnolia Village.

anks to the nancial support of Queen Anne Painting we will once again close W McGraw St between 32nd and 34th Ave W. to keep the trick and treaters safe and sound.

On average, the participating businesses that pass out candy spend hundreds of dollars to ensure they have enough pieces of candy to hand out to the kids. Our local merchants love the community that supports their business and look forward to the Halloween tradition every year.

Your local Magnolia Chamber asks if you would consider supporting these businesses in several ways.

1. Continue to shop, dine and seek services locally.

2. Consider ordering candy in bulk to assist in underwriting the costs of Halloween in the Village to our local businesses and merchants. Click on our Amazon Wish List at https:// www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/2MER3F5BNT6XJ?ref_=wl_ share&mc_cid=e4fdbb61cf&mc_eid=064d0b7d6b and place a candy order to ship to the Chamber address:

relax and sleep. (Note that electronic blue light from our phones and computers disrupts melatonin significantly – consider changing your monitor settings on your devices for three hours before sleep.)

Exercise – whether walking, weightlifting or cardio – will build serotonin, possibly by increasing the availability of tryptophan.

Eating certain foods can help too. Although we’ve heard about eating turkey for tryptophan, protein can slow down or lessen the tryptophan absorption. Eating plantbased tryptophan in the form of complex carbs like sweet potatoes and pumpkin is more effective.

Tryptophan needs vitamin B6 and magnesium to help synthesize serotonin, so Stevenson says your best bet is to ensure you are also getting those in your diet. Spirulina and avocado are sources of all three.

Human touch in the form of massage is also a serotonin booster. One study showed it can raise serotonin by 28% and lower cortisol the hormone

associated with stress and tension by an average of 31%.

We know this intuitively, but laughter proves to be one of the best medicines once again – you can watch a funny show, or fake it till you make it and make yourself laugh. Stevenson says it improves levels of serotonin and endorphins.

Better yet, laugh with friends or family – a 2017 study indicated spending time with loved ones gives serotonin levels a bump.

Enjoying and focusing on happy memories is said to increase serotonin, while gratitude practices increase both serotonin and dopamine. So try spending less time on social media or watching tv, and plan to get outside, see a friend, exercise, laugh, and take a minute to be grateful for it.

Fall garden to-dos

The rain is returning – slowly – and suddenly your fleece and socks are back in rotation in the morning. It’s a perfect time for taking stock of the last season, and still time for planting and many tasks to support your garden for next year.

YOU ARE HERE: ASSESSING THE SITUATION

My biggest learning is that the ground is much drier than I imagined. While we may not have noticed, except with a slight sense of relief for ourselves, last winter was exceptionally dry. We had a last blast of May-June rain and cool weather, coincidentally at the most inconvenient time for planting out heat-loving crops like tomatoes – my tomatoes didn’t get planted outside until June, for the first season ever. For many of our shrubs, trees and perennials in the garden, that rain was too little too late.

How do I know? Even though I have done my best to water, water, water throughout August and September, my “Haruko Nishiki” willow keeps turning progressively brown. The “Raspberry Shortcake” which gave me two bumper crops of berries last year, is barely hanging on right now. Those are both heavy water users. Willow roots are renowned for their ability to travel distances to find water.

Some in-ground plants have sailed through the summer with little intervention, like Grevillea “Murray Valley Queen,” and in its second year on my south-facing hillside is putting out its first

red invitations to the hummingbirds. It may be a bit too successful, doubling in size in a year. I may move it to where the willow is and hope it gets enough sun there.

GROW A HEALTHIER GARDEN OF HAPPY PLANTS

So, for me a big priority will be considering droughttolerant replacements for the “new normal,” creating a watering plan of soaker hoses and rain barrels, and making sure to preserve and collect leaves, grass clippings and more for mulching materials.

If you are looking to add new plants to your garden, fall is an ideal planting time, because the rains will soon come regularly to water in your new roommates. You may luck into some seasonal sales too. For any plants that are: very small, borderline hardy, or hate wet soils, plant them no later than six weeks before your expected first frost. With most others, you have a lot of leeway. Groundcovers are a great investment in preserving moisture in your soil. Note: because it has been so dry, soak your soil before planting – you may need to go over the area several

times. Ideally the ground will be wet at least a foot down. Confirm how far the water is reaching by digging down with a trowel or stake.

Fall is of course the time to plant your spring bulbs, so get ordering or scouring your local nurseries. Choose your quantities, and then increase by a factor of 10 for best results. The more the better. Some are attractive to pollinators, like species tulips, crocus, and the allium family.

This is also a perfect opportunity to direct-sow seeds of half-hardy annuals (such as calendula, annual poppies, nigella) and a few cold-tolerant surprises like sweet peas.

Even better (for your soil’s perspective), sow some cover crops like crimson clover or legumes like fava beans to add and fix nitrogen back into your soil for the next year of growing. This is especially helpful in beds where you grow hungry annuals like veggies and zinnias. The legumes are fixing nitrogen while growing and for an extra boost you’ll chop them all your cover crops in spring and use them as mulch or lightly dig them in. Even if you are not adding new plants (who has this discipline?), there are lots of ways to help your garden now, such as:

• Gather and save leaves to chop up and use as mulch on lawn and beds, add to compost, or allow to break down over winter and use as mulch or at the base of pots in spring.

• Find or create a nutritious wood chip mulch to insulate plant roots from cold and heat, increase biological activity, and hold water. Linda

Chalker-Scott, associate professor at Washington State University and horticultural myth-buster at Thegardenprofessors.org holds wood chip mulch to be the best thing you can add to your garden for any

type of soil.

• Order some soil tests –these will help you know what does – and doesn’t – need to be added to your soil next year, saving you money, time and heartache. You can get five samples tested for free from King County: https://kingcd. org/programs/better-soils/ healthy-soil/.

• Create a compost pile.

Rev. Dr. Victor Scalise

• Create a worm bin. Are you sensing a theme? Many of these tips are working from the ground level up. The old adage bears repeating – great gardeners grow soil. It’s the foundation of all the life in your garden, from bacteria to pollinators, to birds, and your plants.

Victor died at age 91 on September 15th, 2023. He could be seen daily walking with his dog, Charlie in Magnolia. He came to Seattle in 2012 to marry Carolyn Fowler, longtime resident, and retired teacher at Briarcliff and Blaine.He will be missed by his family in New England as well as his family here.

Fall is squash season, so let these hardy vegetables be the star of the show. Squashes come in myriad varieties and can be generally divided between summer, fall or winter varieties. Fall and winter squash have hard skins that give way to colorful, vitamin- and antioxidantrich esh. Depending on the type of squash, the skin may or may not need to be peeled. Kabocha (or Japanese) squash is one variety that can be eaten unpeeled. It has sweet orange esh and a dark green, speckled edible shell, which provides extra nutrients and a satisfying rmness that is ideal for these tostadas.

A tostada resembles a taco. e di erence is that a tostada is prepared with a crispy corn tortilla, which serves as its base, instead of a so corn or wheat tortilla. e tortilla can be either fried or oven-baked until crisp, which provides a nice textural contrast to a so taco.

ese vegetarian tostadas replace a traditional protein, such as sh or chicken, with kabocha squash and pile on the usual xings, including smashed black beans, a bright slaw and lime crema. Each component is well seasoned with a smattering of southwest spices to ensure layers of avor in every bite. e components can be prepared in advance and the beans lightly reheated before assembling.

Southwestern spices deliver bold avors in vegetarian tostadas Taste of Queen Anne set for Oct. 14

Combine the slaw ingredients in a bowl and stir to blend. Refrigerate until use, stirring occasionally.

Whisk the crema ingredients in a small bowl. Refrigerate until use.

Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Lightly brush the tortillas with oil and lightly sprinkle with salt. Arrange on a baking sheet lined with parchment. Bake in the oven until light golden and crisp, about 12 minutes, ipping once.

Prepare the squash: Halve the squash, cut o the stem and scoop out the seeds. Cut the squash into 1/2-inch-thick half-moons. Place the squash in a bowl with the oil and toss to coat. Add the spices and toss to coat. Spread the squash on a rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment. Bake in the oven until charred and tender, about 25 minutes, ipping once.

While the squash is roasting, prepare the beans. Heat the oil in a skillet. Add the garlic and saute until fragrant, about 15 seconds. Add the beans and about 2/3 of the jalapenos, the lime juice, cumin and salt. Cook, stirring for 2 to 3 minutes, to meld the avors. If the beans are too thick, add 1 to 2 tablespoons warm water to the pan. Slightly mash the beans with the back of a spoon. Stir in the cilantro and remove from the heat.

To assemble the tacos, spread a layer of beans on a tortilla. Top with a few kabocha wedges and some of the slaw. Drizzle with crema and garnish with additional cilantro and the remaining jalapenos.
