When discussing neurotransmitters, I usually mention these:
acetylcholine - foods high in choline (enhance memory), esp. fish meat,
eggs
serotonin - warm milk, turkey, foods high in tryptophan
I too would be interested in additional information on this subject.

Subject: neurotransmitters and food student question
Might anyone know which foods affect which neurotransmitters, esp. the
"popular" neurotransmitters, ie, serotonin, dopamine, acetylcholine,
endorphins, norepinephrine? I vaguely remember dairy and acetylcholine
going together. A student stumped me on this one and a search on my part
has turned up nothing remarkable.
peace,
