Our brains do not exist in a vacuum. Our bodies are big bowls of chemical soup that can be made or changed in many different ways. Everything about Life Sciences has an impact on us physically and/or mentally. Whether you understand something about a related scientific discipline and want to share, or don't understand something and want it explained, this is the catch-all for Genetics, Evolution, Epidemiology, Biochemistry. . .
Rational, thoughtful, respectful debate is encouraged, but be ready to show your work. As Carl Sagan said, extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. Threads or posts that are about subjects that are not supported by scientific research or cannot be examined using the scientific method will be moved to the area our staff considers more appropriate.

A good reference for understanding what is scientific and what is not. . . Science or Not? is filled with information about how to weigh the validity of claims, medical and otherwise.
