It tends to occur when the person is moving as well as when standing still. Genetics may be responsible for around half of the cases of essential tremor.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>Essential tremor &#8211; diet, GABA, tryptophan and B vitamins<\/h2>\n<p>This Croatian paper, <a href=\"https:\/\/medcraveonline.com\/JNSK\/JNSK-07-00242.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Treatment of Essential Tremor with Multi-Modal Nutritional Therapy in a Teenage Patient<\/a>, reports the \u201c<em>case of a 13-year-old boy with [essential tremor] causing severe functional impairment<\/em>\u201d over the previous 2 years.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>A multi-modal nutritional therapy approach<\/em>\u201d was used to target three possible areas that could be contributing to the tremors: a poor diet that was high in sugar, low GABA levels and low serotonin. These changes were implemented:<\/p>\n<p><em>(i) diet (specifically adopting a Mediterranean diet) <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>(ii) GABA (through oral supplementation) and <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>(iii) L-tryptophan\/vitamin B pathways (Triptobel oral supplement). <\/em><\/p>\n<p>The papers states: \u201c<em>After two months of therapy, his tremor decreased significantly and he regained normal function<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Once the essential tremor resolved, this teen was able to resume his plans to pursue a musical career as a guitar player (which had been put on hold due to the tremor and his inability to play). What wonderful results!<\/p>\n<h2>My commentary on the supplements and doses he used<\/h2>\n<p>I\u2019m thrilled to see tryptophan and GABA being used for this condition and am really pleased to read this case report.\u00a0 Here is my commentary on the supplements and doses he used for anyone wishing to try and replicate this nutritional approach (keeping in mind there is no one-size-fits-all).<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>He used 150 mg of the Triptobel supplement three times daily at 8 am, 1 pm, and 6 pm. One capsule of\u00a0 the Triptobel contains 150mg L-tryptophan and a B vitamin complex of thiamine (vitamin B1), riboflavin (vitamin B2), niacin (vitamin B3), pantothenic acid (vitamin B5), vitamin B6, folic acid (vitamin B9), and cyanocobalamin (vitamin B12).\u00a0 The total tryptophan dose was 450mg per day. A typical starting dose for someone with anxiety is 500mg 2 x day so his dose was on the low-end.\u00a0 The Triptobel was also used at mealtimes and <a href=\"http:\/\/triptobel.eu\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">according to the label<\/a>\u00a0\u201con a full stomach after a light meal, preferably without protein.\u201d I like to use tryptophan between meals (away from protein) and a B complex with meals so I\u2019m intrigued by this application (but wonder when protein was consumed).<\/li>\n<li>He also used 750mg GABA twice daily at 10 am and 4 pm. This is considered a high starting dose for the majority of my clients with anxiety and I start low and build up to this amount.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Anxiety and low mood was not mentioned so I don\u2019t know if they were factors.<\/p>\n<h2>Sugar and carb cravings, and a potential role of gluten<\/h2>\n<p>It appears sugar and carb cravings were very likely a factor given that his normal daily diet contained \u201clarge amounts of refined sugars (chocolate, cake, biscuits, ice cream, etc).\u201d The amino acids would have helped him with those cravings.<\/p>\n<p>With regards to his diet, given how common <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC6115931\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">movement disorders are with gluten issues<\/a>, I would also consider I gluten-free diet which has been shown to have an adverse impact on neurotransmitter levels and B vitamins. Could gluten have triggered these nutritional deficiencies and the tremors?<\/p>\n<p>And now to share a very similar case in an adult male \u2026 with a different and yet related approach.<\/p>\n<h2>Dystonia and hand tremors &#8211; and the pyroluria connection<\/h2>\n<p>This same <a href=\"https:\/\/www.medicalnewstoday.com\/articles\/322195.php#causes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Medical News Today article<\/a> also describes dystonic tremor\/dystonia as a movement disorder that can also cause hand tremors, stating that \u201c<em>the brain sends incorrect messages, resulting in overactive muscles, abnormal postures, and sustained undesired movements. Young adults and those in middle age are most likely to develop dystonic tremors, which can occur in any muscle.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019ve been reading my recent articles on pyroluria (the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.everywomanover29.com\/blog\/increased-sociability-improves-vagus-nerve-function-the-role-of-social-anxiety-pyroluria-and-low-zinc\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pyroluria-vagus nerve connection<\/a>\u00a0and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.everywomanover29.com\/blog\/why-social-anxiety-introversion-and-loneliness-can-be-lethal-and-a-simple-nutritional-solution\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">introversion-pyroluria-loneliness connection<\/a>) I\u2019m sure you\u2019ll be be interested to learn that there appears to be a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.everywomanover29.com\/blog\/pyroluria-focal-musicians-dystonia\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">strong link between pyroluria and focal musician\u2019s dystonia (or musician\u2019s cramp)<\/a> in some individuals.<\/p>\n<p>As you read in the blog above, Jay, also a guitar player, had to put his professional music career on hold due to musician\u2019s dystonia. He also happened to have social anxiety and he started to notice improvements in his anxiety and tremors within the first 2 weeks. At the end of 4 months of being on the pyroluria protocol, he shared this:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>I think it is, at this point, safe to say that the pyroluria treatment [120mg vitamin B6 and\u00a0 60mg zinc) is, at least in my case, the cure for pyroluria and dystonia. 90%+ of my symptoms have disappeared, I am working extensively on repertoire and I am thinking about getting back into performing.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>He says his experience was \u201c<em>akin to rebirth as a musician and also as a person.<\/em>\u201d How wonderful is that to read. Jay\u2019s musician\u2019s dystonia resolved and so did his social anxiety.<\/p>\n<p>The outcome for the teen and Jay were similar and yet the approaches used were seemingly very different. This isn\u2019t actually the case since zinc and vitamin B6 are co-factors that are needed to make GABA and serotonin.<\/p>\n<h2>Additional resources when you are new to using GABA or tryptophan as supplements<\/h2>\n<p>We use <a href=\"https:\/\/www.everywomanover29.com\/blog\/amino-acids-mood-questionnaire-from-the-antianxiety-food-solution\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the symptoms questionnaire<\/a> to figure out if low serotonin or low GABA or other neurotransmitter imbalances may be an issue for you.<\/p>\n<p>If you suspect low levels of any of the neurotransmitters and do not yet have my book, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.everywomanover29.com\/blog\/the-antianxiety-food-solution-by-trudy-scott\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Antianxiety Food Solution \u2013 How the Foods You Eat Can Help You Calm Your Anxious Mind, Improve Your Mood, and End Cravings<\/a>. I highly recommend getting it and reading it before jumping in and using amino acids on your own so you are knowledgeable. And be sure to share it with the practitioner\/health team you or your loved one is working with.<\/p>\n<p>There is an entire chapter on the amino acids and they are discussed throughout the book in the sections on gut health, gluten, blood sugar control (this is covered in an entire chapter too), sugar cravings, anxiety and mood issues. The importance of quality animal protein and healthy fats is also covered.<\/p>\n<p>The book doesn\u2019t include product names (per the publisher\u2019s request) so this blog, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.everywomanover29.com\/blog\/amino-acids-pyroluria-supplements\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Antianxiety Food Solution Amino Acid and Pyroluria Supplements<\/a>, lists the amino acids that I use with my individual clients and those in my group programs.<\/p>\n<p>If, after reading this blog and my book, you don\u2019t feel comfortable figuring things out on your own (i.e. doing the symptoms questionnaire and respective amino acids trials), a good place to get help is the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.anxietynutritioninstitute.com\/gabaquickstart\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">GABA QuickStart Program<\/a> (if you have low GABA symptoms).
