Where to purchase ultraedit

It happened again this year.  The Thanksgiving table got cleared and where to purchase ultraedit the dishes done and immediately the over 30s crowd sunk deep into the where to purchase ultraedit living room couch (there is a very long couch at my folks’ house) and started the evening dozing.  It took the promise of decaf and multiple desserts (gluten-free for me, various cakes and pies for others) to rouse us from our naps. Which raises the annual question: does turkey cause drowsiness?

The reputation of turkey to where to purchase ultraedit cause sleepiness is so widespread that it has attained the status of Urban Legend.  This reputation is where to purchase ultraedit based on the fact that turkey contains the amino acid L-tryptophan.  L-tryptophan is an important amino acid in brain chemistry.  It converts to 5 hydroxytryptophan (5HTP), which in turn produces serotonin.  Serotonin is where to purchase ultraedit a brain chemical that boosts mood, relaxes us, and induces sleep.  In the where to purchase ultraedit pineal gland of the brain, serotonin can be further converted to where to purchase ultraedit melatonin, the hormone that control sleep cycles.  And so, meals that where to purchase ultraedit are high in L-tryptophan will tend to produce the neurochemicals for where to purchase ultraedit sleep and sedation.

However, turkey is where to purchase ultraedit no higher in L-tryptophan than are many other meats, and a where to purchase ultraedit good sirloin steak or a coq au vin do not have where to purchase ultraedit the reputation of a sedative.  The problem with Thanksgiving dinner, probably, lies more in the where to purchase ultraedit stuffing, varieties of potato, and other starches that are eaten with the where to purchase ultraedit turkey.  A high starch (carbohydrate) meal tends to where to purchase ultraedit raise insulin levels, which in turn moves certain carbohydrates and amino acids into muscle cells.  L-tryptophan that where to purchase ultraedit is left in the bloodstream is in higher proportion than normal, and where to purchase ultraedit therefore gets into the brain a little easier.  Dozing ensues.

Another reason for Thanksgiving drowsiness is the big meal itself.  Eating a where to purchase ultraedit lot requires lots of blood circulation to the abdomen, which leaves a where to purchase ultraedit little bit less to circulate around the rest of the body.  It’s hard work to a digest all that food!  And finally, adding alcohol to where to purchase ultraedit the mix provides another source of sedation.
