Interesting - thanks much
Andrew Murray asked Dr. Peat about extended yawning for me, and his reply was, "Although some people think it's a possible diagnostic sign, I don't think it's specific enough to be useful, and I don't know of anything that's benefited by intentional yawning. It cools the brain, and it's not good to cool the brain too much." However, the rest of my question (paraphrased) wasn't answered: "It's interesting that everything Ray Peat is "against" (absolutely or conditionally) facilitates yawning (acetylcholine, adrenocorticotropic hormone, carbon monoxide, dopamine, estrogen, excitatory amino acids, nitric oxide, oxytocin, noradrenaline, prolactin, and serotonin), and everything he's "for" (absolutely and conditionally) inhibits yawning (GABA, melatonin, neurotensin, opioid peptides, and testosterone). Shouldn't it be the other way around?" Also, I've personally remedied many cases of edema by simply getting people to yawn and stretch (pandiculate) to the point of activating their lacrimal glands while simultaneously putting pressure on their Achilles tendons (the same tendons used for the Achilles Reflex Test used to diagnose hypothyroidism). The man who taught me this technique praised the benefits of a "cool brain" and a "hot tailpipe." The brain (the ovum grown to maturity) runs better "cool," and the spine (the sperm grown to maturity) runs better "hot," and the medulla oblongata (where the sperm penetrated the ovum) is the thermostat.What - only 1 response...???
I thought this would be SO interesting
but I guess NOT ! ! !
