Understanding Oxytocin Deficiency Syndrome
- Oxytocin deficiency impacts empathy, social anxiety, skin aging, muscle loss, libido, bone density, sleep quality, appetite, and immune response.
- These effects combine to accelerate aging and impair social and physical health.
Boost Oxytocin via Gut Microbes
- To increase oxytocin safely, restore the gut microbe Lactobacillus reuteri.
- This signals the brain's hypothalamus to release oxytocin naturally, avoiding impractical injections or nasal sprays.
Microbial Strain Specificity Matters
- Microbial strain specificity is crucial; different strains of the same species can have vastly different effects.
- For oxytocin benefit, only certain strains of Lactobacillus reuteri trigger oxytocin release.
