Epigenetic Repair of Terrifying Lucid Dreams by Enhanced Brain Reward Functional Connectivity and Induction of Dopaminergic Homeostatic Signaling.

Terrifying lucid dreams—where the dreamer is aware and may control the dream—can plague patients with Reward Deficiency Syndrome (RDS), including those with ADHD, Tourette's syndrome, and PTSD. In eight clinical cases with histories of substance abuse, childhood abuse, and PTSD, administration of the neuronutrient KB200Z eliminated unpleasant or terrifying lucid dreams in 87.5% of cases. Other published cases have since shown long-term elimination of terrifying dreams in PTSD and ADHD patients. The article proposes that inducing dopamine homeostasis through such neuronutrients may mitigate neurogenetic and epigenetic changes in neuroplasticity underlying these disorders, and that precision formulations guided by Genetic Addiction Risk Score (GARS) testing may repair inheritable brain reward circuitry deficiencies, improving cognitive recall and attenuating trauma's harmful epigenetic insults.

Abstract

During Lucid Dreams, the dreamer is aware, experiences the dream as if fully awake, and may control the dream content. The dreamer can start, stop, and restart dreaming, depending on the nature and pleasantness of the dream. For patients with Reward Deficiency Syndrome (RDS) behaviors, like Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Tourette's- Syndrome, and Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), the dream content may be pleasant, unpleasant, or terrifying. A sample of psychiatric center patients identified as having RDS reported the effectiveness of a neuronutrient, dopamine agonist, KB200Z, in combating terrifying, lucid dreaming. These reports motivated the study of eight clinical cases with known histories of substance abuse, childhood abuse, and PTSD. The administration of KB200Z, associated with eliminating unpleasant or terrifying lucid dreams in 87.5% of the cases. Subsequently, other published cases have further established the possibility of the long-term elimination of terrifying dreams in PTSD and ADHD patients. Induction of dopamine homeostasis may mitigate the effects of neurogenetic and epigenetic changes in neuroplasticity, identified in the pathogenesis of PTSD and ADHD. The article explores how relief of terrifying lucid dreams may benefit from modulation of dopaminergic signaling activated by the administration of a neuronutrient. Recently, precision formulations of the KB220 neuronutrient guided by Genetic Addiction Risk Score (GARS) test results have been used to repair inheritable deficiencies within the brain reward circuitry. The proposition is that improved dopamine transmodulational signaling may stimulate positive cognitive recall and subsequently attenuate the harmful epigenetic insults from trauma.
