There is also some interesting uses of oxytocin (also known as the love hormone) to help animals overcome shyness, to aid in social development of autistic people and to make men more sensitive!  |
Interesting ... very interesting.
Yes, i am reading more and more about other uses of the oxytocin too ... i saw a south american show other day about the different research on the uses and found it very interesting ...
Thanks for posting ... I hope we keep having more responses on this .
