Thread: AcetylCholine Agonists.

It is known that AcetylCholine is a Neurotransmitter involved in controling muscle tention and regulating sleep.

The reason why lucid dreamers are so enthusiastic about Choline is because it's a precursor to AcetylCholine which is what seems to make us dream more vividly. So AcetylCholine appears to be a DreamEnhancer and therefor preloading yourself with it's precursor Choline works to make dreams more vivid, conscious and memorable. So higher levels of the neurotransmitter AcetylCholine seem favouravle for vivid/lucid dreams.

Now there are other substances called AcetylCholine-Agonists. Meaning these substances either (1)mimic the action of AcetylCholine (as is the case with Psilocyn(mushrooms) and Serotonin, and with Opium/Opiates and Endorphin), (2) increase the production/release of AcetylCholine, or (3)they inhibit the breakdown of AcetylCholine: All 3 possible actions of these AcetylCholine Agonist-substances result in AcetylCholine levels increasing in the brain.

I was trying to find out a list of acetylCholine-Agonist substances and possible food/plant sources of them. This is where I need your help, cause a google search was unsuccesfull to my surprise.

So can you folks help me make a list of AcetylCholine Agonists and their organic ( Or commercial, Supplement ) sources? That would be sweet.

Here's the List I will be updating everytime one of you post another AcetylCholine Agonist:
