Omega 3 elevates dopamine. RWS, ALS and MCS patients have a deficiency in omega 3. Is their dopamine decreased?
How EMFs deplete omega 3 and why it is critical to have optimal level:

Omega 3 elevates dopamine
"Low omega-3 fatty acid diets diminish dopamine levels, a monoaminegeric neurotransmitter. In 2000, a study by Zimmer et al. observed rats fed an n-3 fatty acid poor diet had a 90% reduction of dopamine released in their brains and mild damage to the dopaminergic synaptic vesicles (2). The neurotransmitter was unable to trigger communication signals to the next neuron. Similarly in a 1998 article in the Journal of Nutrition by Chalon, S. et al., rats fed a fish oil diet had a great grain capacity than those fed a control diet. The rats consuming higher quantities of fish oil had 40% greater dopamine levels in the frontal lobes (2). Scarce dopamine levels in human brain frontal lobes induce neurocognitive functions such as memory, problem solving, and attention are negatively affected.....Chronic dietary deficiencies in n-3 fatty acids have also found a 40-75% decrease in dopamine levels (2, DeLion et al)."

"In addition to changing serotonin and dopamine levels and functioning, omega-3 deficiencies are known to compromise the blood-brain barrier, which normally protects the brain from unwanted matter gaining access.21 Omega-3 deficiency can also decrease normal blood flow to the brain,22,23 an interesting finding given the studies which show that patients with depression have compromised blood flow to a number of brain regions.24,25 Finally, omega-3 deficiency also causes a 35 percent reduction in brain phosphatidylserine (PS) levels.26 This is also of relevance when considering that PS has documented antidepressant activity in humans.27,28"
