Last month I was in the Bay Area for a number of events, including the Silicon Valley Health Institute‘s monthly seminar. The speaker, John Gray, author of “Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus” spoke about hacking your hormones, especially when in relationships. He covers how you can hack your relationships to keep them going strong by incorporating an understanding of hormones and behavior, touching on nutrition and supplements.
In a humorous and informative way, Gray answers the following questions:
- How do hormones have an impact on my relationship?
- What is oxytocin and how can it help reduce stress for women?
- How does testosterone help men reduce their stress levels?
- What is man-o-pause?
- Why do women score lower than men on tests that measure happiness?
- What is cortisol and how can it be a benefit/detriment to my relationship?
- Helping men and women hack stress . . . the tools are not the same.
- What are super foods and how can they help in replenishing hormones
- How is balancing blood sugar connected to balancing hormones?
