Yes, only sugar beet molasses is high uridine.
Unfortunately, uridine, while present in low levels in many foods, is not found in high levels in any particular food, and there is not yet a uridine supplement on the market. Interestingly, uridine is a key component of breast milk, so maybe that's why babies are so happy after they nurse.
Maybe breastfeeding can cause low uracil levels inducing postpartum depression.
