In this episode, we delve into the science behind the MAOB gene and monoamine neurotransmitters. 

Join us as we explore the crucial role of dopamine, serotonin, and norepinephrine in regulating mood and cognition. 

We dissect the function of the MAOB gene in metabolizing neurotransmitters and discuss the implications of genetic variations on mental health. 

From increased breakdown linked to mood disorders to decreased activity associated with elevated neurotransmitter levels, we unravel the complex interplay between genes and mental well-being.
