So obviously they have really important functions.
And so just those two areas are really important.
But obviously, they work throughout our DNA.
They can change our genetic structure when we have those hormones stimulate and go through into the nucleus.
They can help with oxidative stress.
They can help every system in our body improve when we have those natural hormones.
And
I'm very interested in the role of hormones in our brain.
I'm very interested in neurophysiology, so the way our brain works, because without our brain, it's pretty hard to function.
So I've written a lot in the book about how our brain works, all the different cells in
including the neurons, but each different cell and what it does and the function and then how our hormones work within our nervous system.
So things like building and improving the synaptic junction, which is like you probably know that the nerves don't join.
There's a little gap and you've got like a chemical reaction going between the little gaps to feed from one neuron to another.
And you need those really healthy neurons.
And they can improve the transmission of those sort of signals, if you like, from one urine to another.
They can help the speed of the transmissions and also just the way that our brain repairs itself.
We want our brains are constantly rewiring and regenerating.
And we know about muscle memory and memory.
In our brain, you know, that whole thing we all know we need to do lots of Sudoku and crosswords and whatever to keep our brain functioning well.
And it's a bit like a tree.
