How does substance abuse affect the brain: The most dynamic and complex organ of the body

The question everybody is asking is “How does substance abuse affect the brain?” This organ must be protected by all means from all kinds of addictions.

The brain is the engine that drives the human body. If the brain is healthy, then it will process all the information given to in in a healthy manner, in the same way if it is struggling with an impurity, the processing of information will also deliver impure result. Therefore we need to understand the brain well if we want to get full optimum from it. We must also care for it well and keep it safe from all substances which are likely to bring damage to it and that is why we want to focus our discussion on how does substance abuse affect the brain. This is a very wide topic and for a couple of times we will be running a series of articles touching on the effects of addiction to the brain. Remember that the brain is the most dynamic and complex organ in our bodies. I believe that you are interested in finding out how to care for this most vital organ of your body. Therefore it will do you good to keep on the link to find out more from the experts at AWAREmed Health and Wellness Resource Center under the able leadership of doctor Dalal Akoury. According to these experts, the proper functionality of the brain delivers quality assurance of our very survival. Doctor Akoury says that when our brains (the human brain) functions well, we are constantly adopting or adjusting to our environment (our surroundings) changes well. What many may not know is that this smooth adaptation is the work of our brain. And ironically, it is the brain’s ability to be so adaptive that contributes to the formation of all manner of addictions. From the various studies conducted by researchers across the globe, it has been established that addiction has direct effect to the brain and that it causes changes to the brain in at least four fundamental ways:

Addiction causes changes to the brain’s natural balance (homeostasis).
Addiction alters brain chemistry.
Addiction changes the brain’s communication patterns.
Addiction causes changes to brain structures and their functioning.

With the help of the professionals we have on board from AWAREmed Health and Wellness Resource Center, we are going to discuss each of these fundamental changes that come with the effects of addiction to the brain progressively.

How does substance abuse affect the brain: Addiction changes the brain’s natural balance homeostasis?

One of the fundamentals in our response to the question of discussion “how does substance abuse affect the brain” is that addiction will always change the brain natural balance which is scientifically known as homeostasis. The truth is that addiction interferes with an important biological process called homeostasis. Scientifically the human body is considered as a biological system. All biological systems attempt to maintain a “normal” balance, known as homeostasis. Doctor Akoury says that the brain actually functions as the administrator of this balance by making various adjustments where is necessary to maintain a balanced, well-functioning, biological system. Each person’s “normal” balance is individually determined. Drugs of abuse and activity addictions lead to changes in this normal balance.

Chronic over-stimulation of the brain (like that which occurs in addiction) interferes with the maintenance of this balance (homeostasis). When the brain has difficulty maintaining homeostatic balance, the wonderfully adaptive brain makes adjustments. It does this by creating a new balanced set-point. The creation of a new balance is called allostasis. This may not be very clear to many, but let me make it simpler by using a daily life illustration. Take for instance if you add more weight by 20 units, you will try fitting into your clothing’s despite the discomfort. But with time this will not be bearable and so you will have to adapt to the new body size by buying new clothes that will fit you well. Once this is done you will be more comfortable and at this point you will get used to the fact that your cloths are now large size and not medium or small sizes as it used to be and in the process your homeostasis balance changes from medium to large. And with this adjustment you become comfortable again. Nonetheless the reverse can also take place in the future where the added 20 units may be lost to keep healthy and when that happens you will be compelled to make further readjustment to your clothing size by buying smaller sizes. Therefore even though at this moment you will be healthy due to the loss, you will still need to make an unpleasant and costly adjustment by buying smaller clothes. This is very similar to the unpleasant adjustment the brain must go through when people try to give up their addiction. Although this is a positive change, we will be uncomfortable while the brain makes readjustments to suits the present circumstances.

How does substance abuse affect the brain: The brains ability to cope?

I hope that the concept is coming out clearly from the above illustration. But nonetheless even with the brain’s wonderful ability to make the readjustments, these changes are still causing significant changes to the brain’s functioning. And in fact it is these changes that account for many behaviors associated with addiction such as:

The powerful and lustful need to obtain drugs or continue with the indulgence of harmful activities despite the harm to self or loved ones
The difficulty of quitting an addictive drug or activity, and
The obsessive, all-consuming nature of addictions such that little else in life matters

This is because addiction caused the brain’s balance to change to accommodate the addiction. Once changed, the brain requires the addictive substance or activity in order to maintain this new homeostatic balance. Finally we all have a duty to keep our health above board and the brain is playing a key role in ensuring that this dream is realized. Therefore anything that makes the brain to function improperly must be the biggest enemy to us. I am talking about substance of abuse. Drugs and alcohol are not helping us in anyway. All we get from them is poor health and social discrimination. I want to offer you a solution if you or anyone you know is struggling with any form of addiction. You can schedule for an appointment with doctor Dalal Akoury today for a one on one sharing of what you are going through and she will in the most professional way offer you lasting solutions to all your concerns.

RESTORING NEUROTRANSMITTERS KEY IN WAR ON DRUGS

Restoring Neurotransmitters Key In War On Drugs

The history of the largely popularized terms; War on Drugs is a long one. It began in the 1960’s when scientists still conducted research on the medical value of substances such as; marijuana, psychedelics, opium, and Coca. At the time many of these substances were not illegal. However these substances became symbols of political rebellion, youthful dissent, and other social political upheavals. Most of them therefore top on the list marijuana were banned henceforth. Various American Presidents have made history in the dance, War on Drugs. The most popular one is President Nixon, who declared a war on Drugs in the year 1971. He dramatically placed marijuana on Schedule One, the most deterring category of the addictive substances. Since then the battle against drug use has undergone through several twists and turns till to-date. However the most important and yet challenging bit of it is rehabilitation of the victims, or better their say recovery.

Restoring Neurotransmitters, New Approach to War on Drugs

It is highly unlikely doing the same thing every day will yield different results. For a long time detoxification has been used to treat addiction. This is the introduction of cleaning agents in a patient’s blood, to wipe off addictive substances. In many occasions however, the victims have fallen right back into addiction and the process started a whole new. Or aren’t there people who have spent so much time in Rehab facilities with no improvement?

Well time is ripe for a different approach to the war on drugs. There are scientific breakthroughs to that effect. One such was the astonishing revelation of neuroplasticity. This is the brain’s ability to recover from loss of memory or to maintaining normal functioning after incidents of accidents or other activities that might lead to an injury or damage of neurons. Adoption of neuroplasticity in rehabilitative treatment has been a great step in the war on drugs. For more information about it click on http://www.integrativeaddiction2015.com. However today we shall discuss a different scientific breakthrough more like neuroplasticity, restoring neurotransmitters.

War On Drugs

Supporting Research on Neurotransmitters and War on Addiction

In a common medical study often alluded to, there were animals placed in a cage for some time and their behavior observed. The animals were provided a bowl of water, and another containing alcohol. The animals had a choice between the two. It was observed they chose different bowls depending on their health at each given time. Most of the time they were denied food, nutrients for that matter, they would drink from the alcohol containing bowl. Other times they were provided proper nutrition and they would drink from the water containing bowl. Continued provision of good food saw them drink the water and avoid the alcohol. Soon they never took in alcohol. At another, yet a commonly cited study, addicts underwent traditional rehabilitation methods of detoxification and were keenly observed for a period ten years, after which only about 5% managed to completely, abstain.

Proper Nutrition Key in War on Drugs

These study observations led scientists to a world of possibilities. Proper nutrition greatly assists in restoring neurotransmitters, which in turn helps in recovery. What then are neurotransmitters? They are chemical messengers’ neurons use in communication. They enable the nerve cells send and or receive electro-chemical signals within the brain and with other parts and organ systems of the body. They are therefore very well capable to regulate all functions of the body including: movements, sleep, wake, emotions, hearing, feelings of touch, response, and mental processes; cognitive thought.

The role of neurotransmitters therefore is underscored very important. Deficiencies are not good for our health, certainly not for those in rehabilitation. Addiction is a major neurotransmitter imbalance. It is an advanced symptom of neurotransmitter deficiency. The symptoms include the following: alcoholism, caffeine, sugar, sex, gambling, carbohydrate, nicotine, tobacco and marijuana addictions. Types of neurotransmitters include: serotonin, dopamine, endorphins, acetylcholine, and glutamate. Too little or too much of any or all of these is not good for recovery. Improper diets, environmental toxins, chronic stress, candida overgrowth, and genetic inheritance are top among causes of disparity.

War On Drugs

Neurotransmitter Restoration Prime in War on Drugs

Restoring neurotransmitters therefore is as important a recovery exercise in the war on drugs as are the other therapeutic methods. The following are simple ways of restoring neurotransmitters:

Identify nutritional deficiencies. Neurotransmitters are majorly created through amino acid assimilation. There is need therefore to take in more protein containing foods with less of complex carbohydrates. Caution however has to be taken against foods containing fat and cholesterols as they are health hazards in other ways. Click on awaremednetwork.com for any further information on nutrition.
Learn stress management skills. For the record take a walk in the sun, enjoy a beautiful view of the landscape, the horizon, take in deep breathes, listen to music, and accept the present.
Exercising is another great way of restoring Enough exercise in itself leads to the production of endorphins, which as earlier stated are neurotransmitters. Exercising also aids in proper digestion of foods and creation and assimilations of in this case, amino acids.
Maintain a balanced hormonal level in the body. Neurotransmitters work hand in hand with body hormones, glands and enzyme secretions. You may have to discuss this with your physicians. They might recommend a number of DO’s and DONTs that you will observe in order to restore your transmitters.
And yes, actively start controlling use of addictive substances. Other than the known hard drugs, you should be able to reduce use of sugars, caffeine, and chocolate among others. Also reduce environmental toxins around your home or place of work.

Once again click on http://www.integrativeaddiction2015.com for more information on these and the August Integrative Addiction Medicine Conference, by the way, you should sign up for that. You will also get to know a whole list of experts lined up for the event. One of those is Dr. Dalal Akoury of Integrative Addiction Institute and the founder of International Organization of Integrative Cancer Physicians.

RESTORING NEUROTRANSMITTERS KEY IN WAR AGAINST DRUGS

How substance abuse is hijacking individual’s minds

How substance abuse is hijacking individual’s minds: How does it get there and how does is leave?

How substance abuse is hijacking individual’s minds and when this is done, users of various drugs can do very crazy thing all in the name of satisfying their addiction.

The brain is the engine that drives life and the moment it stops, life equally stops. This is one organ which by all means must not suffer from any kind of pressure. However the kind of life we live today is exacting a lot of pressure to the brain. The prevalence of substance abuse is not helping either in keeping the good health of the brain and this is what we want to engage the experts at AWAREmed Health and Wellness Resource Center on. This is a facility that was the brain child of doctor Dalal Akoury and its formation was primarily to offer solutions to people who are struggling with addiction. Therefore doctor Akoury is going to help us understand how substance abuse is hijacking individual’s minds even as it causes other chronic health problems to the body.

How substance abuse is hijacking individual’s minds: New understandings into a common problem

Owing to the consequences that comes with substance abuse, Ideally nobody would on a voluntary basis wants to desire to develop an addiction, however many people get caught in its snare from very humble beginnings. And today looking at the prevalence of addiction it is amazing that drug use is almost getting out of hand. Take for instance the latest statistics from the government America where nearly 23 million Americans are addicted to either alcohol or other drugs representing a worrying figure of one in every ten being an addict. The statistics also indicate that more than two-thirds of people with addiction abuse alcohol. While the top three drugs causing addiction are marijuana, opioid (narcotic) pain relievers, and cocaine.

In the past the perception about addiction was not right and people who developed signs of addiction were actually seen as people with questionable character and lacking in willpower. As such the remedy was punishment since they were considered wrongdoers besides that they were also encouraged making peace with the community by turning away from their bad habits. Nonetheless a lot has currently been done and scientific findings are changing this old perception of addiction. Today addiction is recognized as a chronic disease that changes both brain structure and function. Just in the same way as cardiovascular disease damages the heart and diabetes impairs the pancreas, addiction hijacks the brain. This happens as the brain goes through a series of changes, beginning with recognition of pleasure and ending with a drive toward compulsive behavior.

How substance abuse is hijacking individual’s minds: Pleasure principle

One of the functions of the brain is to registers all pleasures in the same way, irrespective of their origin. That is whether they are associated with a psychoactive drug, a monetary reward, a sexual encounter, or a satisfying meal. The fact is in the brain, pleasure has a distinct role which is the release of the neurotransmitter dopamine in the nucleus accumbens, a cluster of nerve cells lying underneath the cerebral cortex. Dopamine release in the nucleus accumbens is so consistently tied with pleasure that neuroscientists refer to the region as the brain’s pleasure center.

All drugs of abuse, from nicotine to heroin, cause a particularly powerful surge of dopamine in the nucleus accumbens. The likelihood that the use of a drug or participation in a rewarding activity will lead to addiction is directly linked to the speed with which it promotes dopamine release, the intensity of that release, and the reliability of that release. Therefore addictive drugs provide a shortcut to the brain’s reward system by flooding the nucleus accumbens with dopamine. The hippocampus lays down memories of this rapid sense of satisfaction, and the amygdala creates a conditioned response to certain stimuli.

How substance abuse is hijacking individual’s minds: Learning the process

Previously it was believed that an experience of pleasure alone was enough to compel people in to consistent seeking of addictive elements or activities. However new research findings indicates that the situation may be more complicated. This is because dopamine’s are not only responsible for the experience of pleasure but are also playing a role in learning and memory which are the two key elements in the transition from liking something to being addicted to it. Currently the philosophy about addiction is that dopamine interacts with another neurotransmitter, glutamate to take over the brains system of reward related learning. Remember that this system has an important role in sustaining life because it links activities needed for human survival (such as eating and sex) with pleasure and reward.

It may interest you to note that he reward circuit in the brain may include areas involved with motivation and memory as well as with pleasure. Addictive substances and behaviors stimulate the same circuit and then overload it. And therefore repeated misuse of any addictive substances or behavior will cause nerve cells in the nucleus accumbens and the prefrontal cortex (the area of the brain involved in planning and executing tasks) to communicate in a way that couples liking something with wanting it, in turn driving us to go after it. That is, this process motivates us to take action to seek out the source of pleasure.

How substance abuse is hijacking individual’s minds: Development of tolerance

By nature, rewards usually come only with time and effort. And like I had mentioned before, addictive drugs and behaviors provide a shortcut, flooding the brain with dopamine and other neurotransmitters. Our brains do not have an easy way to withstand the onslaught. Addictive drugs, for example, can release two to 10 times the amount of dopamine that natural rewards do, and they do it more quickly and more reliably. In a person who becomes addicted, brain receptors become overwhelmed. The brain then responds by producing less dopamine or eliminating dopamine receptors—an adaptation similar to turning the volume down on a loudspeaker when noise becomes too loud.

As a result of these adaptations, dopamine has less impact on the brain’s reward center. People who develop an addiction typically find that, in time, the desired substance no longer gives them as much pleasure. They have to take more of it to obtain the same dopamine “high” because their brains have adapted and that is what is known as tolerance.

How substance abuse is hijacking individual’s minds: Compulsion takes over

At this point, compulsion takes over. The pleasure associated with an addictive drug or behavior subsides—and yet the memory of the desired effect and the need to recreate it (the wanting) persists. It’s as though the normal machinery of motivation is no longer functioning.

The learning process mentioned earlier also comes into play. The hippocampus and the amygdala store information about environmental cues associated with the desired substance, so that it can be located again. These memories help create a conditioned response—intense craving—whenever the person encounters those environmental cues.

Cravings contribute not only to addiction but to relapse after a hard-won sobriety. A person addicted to heroin may be in danger of relapse when he sees a hypodermic needle, for example, while another person might start to drink again after seeing a bottle of whiskey. Conditioned learning helps explain why people who develop an addiction risk relapse even after years of abstinence. And that is why keeping close touch with the experts is very important. If you have any concern about addiction, you can schedule for an appointment with doctor Dalal Akoury today for the commencement of your recovery process.

Understanding how addiction is hijacking the brain: Overcoming addiction and staying drug free

Understanding how addiction is hijacking the brain is very necessary to avoid being in serious health complications

Before any contaminant is associated with the brain, the brain is very free and effective in its functions as one of the most sensitive organs of the body. The functions of the brain are very precise and any infringement to them impacts negatively to the whole body and that is why we must guard it by all means. Take for instance the problem of drug addiction that involves cravings for something intensely, loss of control over its use, and continuing involvement with it despite adverse consequences. When one is addicted to any substance, this process normally causes serious changes in the brain by subverting the way it registers pleasure and then it graduates by corrupting other normal drives like learning and motivation. This is what we must not allow by all means and that is why we want to engage the experts’ opinion in understanding how addiction is hijacking the brain functions. Doctor Dalal Akoury MD and founder of AWAREmed Health and Wellness Resource Center are going to be very helpful in shading some light about all these concerns. But before we get into that let us first start by introducing what really causes addiction.

Understanding how addiction is hijacking the brain: What causes addiction?

It will interest you to note that this word addiction actually originated from a Latin word meaning enslaved by or bound to. You may not understand what it feels like to be addicted to a substance until you are addicted to it or if you are caring for someone who is struggling with the problem of addiction. Doctor Akoury says that addiction impacts powerfully and influences the brain functions in three distinctive ways that is to say; by craving for the object of addiction, loss of control over its use, and continuing involvement with it despite dangerous and harmful consequences.

For a very long time now, experts believed that only alcohol and powerful drugs could cause addiction. Nonetheless new neuroimaging technologies and more recent research have shown that certain pleasurable activities besides the known drugs both hard and soft, such as gambling, shopping, and sex, can also co-opt the brain. So whenever you are talking about addiction, you must not narrow your augment on drugs alone. From our previous article we mention something about a standard U.S. diagnostic manual (the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fourth Edition or DSM-IV) that describes multiple addictions with each tied to a specific substance or activity, experts across the globe are building consensus that these may represent multiple expressions of a common underlying brain process. To that effect it would be very important that we all seek for medical attention immediately we suspect something in our health. You can actually schedule for an appointment with doctor Dalal Akoury today for a more in-depth analysis of your situation with a view of finding lasting solutions that will leave health and comfortable.

Understanding how addiction is hijacking the brain: The Future of Integrative Addiction

The effects of addiction to the brain is very sensitive and unless we pool together to find lasting solutions, we may be time bad. This rush against time is what doctor Dalal Akoury is trying to deal with from all avenues. Like we had indicated above that doctor Akoury founded a health facility to primarily help the direct victims of drug addiction. This facility is doing a phenomenon job to the community and even to the professionals caring for the addicts. Like for instance AWAREmed Health and Wellness Resource Center, which is one of the leading pioneers in natural and holistic addiction treatment, will be conducting the first ever Educational, Functional and Integrative Addiction conference for doctors, counselors, nurses and addiction therapists. The conference is actually scheduled for August 23-25 in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. This new frontier in Addiction Medicine will be conducted by the most influential group of leading visionaries specializing in the latest advances in natural and integrative addiction medicine, under the theme “The Future of Integrative Addiction”.

It is important to appreciate that this Integrative Addiction Conference 2015 mission is to provide prevention education, awareness, options and support to patients and physicians dealing with addiction. It is also tailored at empowering physicians to be involved in determining their personal “best answer for addiction” and promoting physician/patient awareness of a natural, yet profoundly effective, addiction treatment options that result in you “thriving while surviving” during treatment and recovery. Integrative Addiction Conference 2015 will cover topics such as addiction as a holistic body ecosystem derangement, the interaction between stress, survivorship, pain and addiction, the role of hormonal imbalance in the disease of addiction, the genetic and epigenetic influences on the disease of addiction, psycho neuroendocrine immune restoration essential to reverse addiction as well as new and future therapies in the horizon for addiction treatment including stem therapy for psycho neuroendocrine immune restoration. This is one educative occasion you cannot afford to miss and for more information about the conference you can login to www.integrativeaddiction2015.com or email sharon@integrativeaddiction2015.com. You can also call the event organizer directly Sharon Phillips on telephone number 954 540 1896 and you will be attended to with dignity.

In the meantime let me take this earliest opportunity to officially invite you to this conference as the lead speaker of the three day conference. And just to pre-empt of what to expect as the keynote speaker, Dalal Akoury, MD will be discussing The Hijacked Mind: How does it get there and how does is leave? Sean Devlin, DO, HMD, will be focusing on “How to Recognize Addiction: Emergency care room and Addiction. Preliminary diagnostics and coping with life-saving measures when patients have overdose on substances of abuse/alcohol and drugs. I can tell you for sure that this will be the turning point for all of us in the addiction industry so that we can even deliver better to our client. We must defeat this common enemy called addiction. So let me see you at the conference.

Screen Addiction: Why We Must Be Concerned

July 16, 2015

Why We Must Be Concerned About Screen Addiction

While technology has made significant contributions to our world, it has come along with a number of concerns. One such concern is screen addiction. This is in fact the greatest new generation technological obsessions of our time. Indeed the world has changed, largely through technological innovations, and is set to do so even more exponentially in the coming years.

Present times sure have new demands. And the need for electronic gadgets be it: the traditional television sets, computers, laptops, i-pads and mobile phones is one we cannot run away from. The concern however is the amount of time we spend with these devices, of what value that is to us, and the effects of such screen addiction kind of novel behavior on us, especially our children.

Figures Indicating Screen Addiction

According to the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), children between the ages of eight and ten have access to electronic devices for a period close to eight hours between sunrise and sunset and vise-versa. Their counterparts beyond the age ten are however glued to their gadget screens for a period well over 11 hours each day.

A research piloted by the Massachusetts Aggression Reduction Center (MARC) also yielded critical figures that rather points to worrying trends of beginnings of screen addiction. In a sample population of 20,000 children in their teens, 20% of 3^rd grade students were each in possession of a mobile cell phone. The numbers gradually increased from the aforementioned to approximately 25% of 4^th graders, 39% of 5^th graders and over 83% of students in middle school.

Screen Addiction

Whereas proponents of technological global revolution argue children should not be limited in embracing new technology, the opponents remain adamant parents have a reason to worry especially about the above statistics. The following are reasons to pay more attention to the second group of experts that have from time to time raised the red flag against screen addiction.

Forms of Screen Addiction

Granted there are a billion or so internet sites with valuable content. It is undeniable on the other hand there is as much the number of website with pornographic materials. With such sites readily accessible to the young ones, we do not need rocket science to know they will be addicted. These fellows will find themselves browsing through various websites and for one reason or another constantly lower their moral guards to various forms of sexual activities hence screen addiction.

Victims of online sexual addiction often find themselves in virtual relationships with people with whom they constantly download and share pornographic content; texts, pictures, audio and video materials. With time they develop virtual bonds, sometimes in cohorts called chat rooms, and more often than not find themselves spending more time chatting (sexting) with their online counterparts, more of strangers to them at the expense of their of their real life partners. The after effects no doubt range from family conflicts, separations, instability, infidelity, or worse divorce.

When screen addiction victims are not in the business to satisfy their sexual desires, it does not mean they quit swiping their screens all together. They could as well be on it only for a different reason this time, video gaming. Those who know this too well will agree video game addiction is real. The situation here is so bad medical experts have become wary. Studies indicate about 15% of computer video gamers often exhibit signs that meet World Health Organization’s (WHO’s) criteria for addiction.

Other forms of screen addiction include online shopping, gambling, and research. The former is largely attributed to fast changing marketing trends and the convenience of a worldwide variety. The latter is largely driven by the need for information across various disciplines of study. It is fuelled by increasing availability of online information and the convenience associated with the same with the help of Google, web-crawler et al. This is also because of increasing e-learning models of study among various institutions of learning and research. Gambling however just like alcohol and drug abuse is associated with relationship, work related, and financial problems.

Screen Addiction

Side Effects of Screen Addiction

A number of research studies conducted over time have shown constant exposure to the internet causes cancer, largely as a result of electronic and mobile cell radiations. The same was however brought to light by the World Health Organization (WHO) in the year 2011 after careful considerations of observations and recommendations made by 31 scientists drawn from various medical professions and from various backgrounds worldwide.

Too much exposure to electronic gadgets has also been said to hinder effective development of the brain. Various research findings have led to the realization screen addiction causes shrinkage of the brain’s grey matter. The result is poor impulse control, organization, planning, and other emotional aspects of our being such as love, empathy and compassion.
