Does anyone know of a good way to get medicinal nutrition into the food supply to help children who misuse their computer access to bully, harass and terrorize the world? You know, the crackers mistaken for hackers?
Perhaps it is possible to super-size those fries with yam genes? And through selective breeding, the farm factory industry are able to create cows that produce a higher yield of choline (source of acetylcholine), tyrosine (source of the neurotransmitters dopamine and noradrenalin) and tryptophan (source of serotonin) in addition to pyridoxal (helps create neurotransmitters and retinol (improves eyesight) derivatives along with thiamine (improves mental acuity)? Or the vegan equivalent of grains and nuts to boost brain power? Yes, I am suggesting we move beyond hacking computers.
Where's the gene splicing kits for tomorrow's gene hackers? We may need to make a smart-drug neuro-peptide with nutritional co-factors piggybacking within the polypeptide chain.
Additionally, I feel that crackerjacks need to be inoculated with a special virus to enlighten their current methods of social control. Perhaps that's what they mean by "a dose of humility."

Flaxseed: Lignans and Protein Reason for Health Benefits?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lignan
http://www.dietaryfiberfood.com/lignan.php
Lignans are phytoestrogens with a phenol group as organic radical. By adding an amine to a lignan, a neurotransmitter may be formed. Though cell metabolism would prefer phenylalanine or even better tyrosine as precursor to dopamine. Meats are a good source of phenylalanine and tyrosine.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phenylalanine
Phenylalanine is found in plant and animal protein.
Additionally, dopamine has in addition to its role as neurotranmitter in neurons, a neurohormone effect in the hypothalamus, which controls mood, behavior and appetite.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dopamine
In contrast, acetylcholine has an amine added to the acetyl group. Its role is neuromodulation i.e. moderates the dopamine and serotonin levels due to its slow breakdown. Usually acetylcholine accumulates in cerebral spinal fluid (CSF).
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetylcholine
Choline is found in lecithin which is found in most animal meats and plants. Good food sources of choline include eggs, beef, chicken and turkey. Although animal proteins are the highest dietary sources of choline, vegetarians and vegans can obtain adequate choline through wheat germ, beans, Brussels sprouts, broccoli, collards, cauliflower and soy milk.

As for tryptophan, it consists of an indole radical, propanoic acid and an amine. The body metabolizes it into serotonin in the gut.
It is found in protein from both animal and plant sources. Fish contains the most healthiest source of tryptophan, along with beans, nuts and seeds, and milk products.

Why Fish is In
It's not just a Californian trend.
Salmon oil and Omega 3 oils in particular are useful in stabilizing bipolar disorder, an endocrine-based mental disorder associated with thyroid imbalance (usually indicated by low amounts of the thyroid hormone, thyroxine).
Thyroxine itself consists of iodine atoms attached to two linked chains of tyrosine, an amino acid associated with the neurotransmitters, dopamine and noradrenalin.
In essence, low thyroxine levels also reflect low levels of dopamine and noradrenalin, neurotransmitters associated with the behavior reward system and the "fight-or-flight" syndrome, respectively.
As a result of this chemical imbalance, people with bipolar disorder tend to suffer mood swings.
Such people fall into two classes: the positive and happy kind, and the negative and unhappy kind. There may be a third class with mixed symptoms (both depressed and manic at the same time).
The happy bipolars tend to be warm, caring, and loving; they also tend to "fall in love" quickly in relationships, and may treat both praise and abuse as attention, thus confusing both kinds as "love."
Indeed, happy bipolars are motherly if female, and fatherly if male.
The unhappy bipolars may exhibit additional psychosis with paranoid symptoms and also may keep all aspects of their illness a secret; they tend range from not trusting a person to being too trusting of a romantic interest, depending on the depth of their psychosis.
At times, unhappy bipolars tend to get aggressive with violent outbursts towards loved ones.
Mood stabilization is the first concern of a medical professional using lithium.
Fish oil is also a mood stabilizer, as evidenced by the demeanor of people who eat a lot of fish.
Indeed, bipolar symptoms are rare among the Japanese, who eat a lot of rare fish such as salmon, mackerel and tuna.
