    I’ve seen it mentioned in CTE articles.

    I think humans have a somewhat unique construction in the animal kingdom. We're basically a brain in a jar. Tends to make things a bit rattly when sudden deceleration is involved.

    sorry for the self-quote, but what I mean is, are there supplements or foods that are favorable to the formation/development/retainment/whatever of these peptides? Seems like something you should do if you can.

    I'm in when you figure it out. Not that what I've got is all that great but I'd hate to lose it.

    Because both woodpeckers and sheep evolved to bang their heads against things, so have internal adaptations like little shock absorbers.

    I agree it is a constitutional right for Americans to be assholes...its just too bad that so many take the opportunity...
