Sex Differences in Health, Sleep and Response to Drugs
1:31:05 - 1:36:01 (04:55)
The differences in chromosomes and karyotypes have great impact on health practices, response to drugs and sleep schedules. The volume of food in the gut is also related to wakefulness and may affect these factors.

The volume of food in the gut can impact wakefulness due to sensory fibers in the gut that communicate with neurons in the no-dos ganglia, which then send signals to the brain stem and areas involved in producing neuromodulators.

Sex differences related to karyotype have been found to have a powerful impact on health practices, particularly in response to drugs, different sleep schedules, and overall health practices.

Summary
Sex differences related to karyotype have been found to have a powerful impact on health practices, particularly in response to drugs, different sleep schedules, and overall health practices. Recent studies exploring both sexes have been mandated by institutions such as the National Institutes of Health to explore biases towards only using male subjects.
