Hi All
Just heard something interesting. Most brains have a hormone called
melatonin in them. The hormone governs things like sleep cycles, and
day night biorythms.
It is also a powerful free radical scavenger and helps with
repairing/stopping damage caused by things like UV, mercury and a
host of others. It helps for a number of diseases, including
rheumatoid arthritis. It extends the life expectancy of lab animals
by 45% on average. It gives humans a better nights sleep.
So why is it in incredibly high concentrations in bee brains?????
Interesting piece of info.
Keep well
