In the face of the global pandemic of COVID 19, approaching 1 75 Million infected worldwide (4/12/2020) and associated mortality (over 108, 000 as of 4/12/2020) as well-as other catastrophic events including the opioid crisis, a focus on brain health seems prudent [1] (https://www coronavirus gov) This manuscript reports on the systemic benefits of restoring and achieving dopamine homeostasis to reverse and normalize thoughts and behaviors of Reward Deficiency Syndrome (RDS) dysfunctional conditions and their effects on behavioral physiology;function of reward genes;and focuses on digestive, immune, eye health, and the constellation of symptomatic behaviors The role of nutrigenomic interventions on restoring normal brain functions and its benefits on these systems will be discussed We demonstrate that modulation of dopamine homeostasis using nutrigenomic dopamine agonists, instead of pharmaceutical interventions, is achievable The allied interlinking with diverse chronic diseases and disorders, roles of free radicals and incidence of anaerobic events have been extensively highlighted In conjunction, the role of dopamine in aspects of sleep, rapid eye movement and waking are extensively discussed The integral aspects of food indulgence, the influence of taste sensations, and gut-brain signaling are also discussed along with a special emphasis on ocular health The detailed mechanistic insight of dopamine, immune competence and the allied aspects of autoimmune disorders are also highlighted Finally, the integration of dopamine homeostasis utilizing a patented gene test and a research-validated nutrigenomic intervention are presented Overall, a cutting-edge nutrigenomic intervention could prove to be a technological paradigm shift in our understanding of the extent to which achieving dopamine homeostasis will benefit overall health
