Nutrients are usually studied in isolation, yet synapses don’t operate that way. This episode examines research showing that coordinated nutritional inputs can reshape synaptic proteins and neural firing patterns (effects that isolated inputs fail to produce). The shift isn’t about stronger signaling, but more organized signaling within brain circuits.

The goal: explain why biological systems respond to combinations rather than singles, how coordinated inputs influence synaptic receptors, protein synthesis, and network synchronization.
