If his research proves, or is proven to be valid, it would answer something I have thought about in the last few years. At 11:34 he talks about how testosterone inhibits trust, and magnifies selfishness. When I was younger and my testosterone was sky high, I was extremely money tight and quite selfish.

This may be an explanation.

Yes a lot of it appears to make sense, but as you said, BFT, it still needs to be tested more.

Regardless, very interesting theory.

Medication is too dangerous. Some family members in search of a remedy were converted to flesh eating zombies.
