Asea And The Nervous System
The nervous system is an organ system containing a network of specialized cells called neurons that coordinate the actions of an animal and transmit signals between different parts of its body. Dr. Samuelson and Dr. Ward discuss the role of the nervous system in the body and the vital nature of Redox Signaling to healthy nervous system function. They address the following topics:
- How the health of the nervous systems is central to the health of the entire body
- How elevated levels of oxidative stress in the nervous system affect the body
- How Redox Signaling molecules are essential to the proper function of the nervous system
- The analogy of the nervous system as the conductor of an orchestra, directing the functions of all other body systems
