:: In ''Molecules of Emotion'', Dr. Candace Pert, PhD. provides a theoretical model to explain why this might be so. Since emotional expression is always tied to a specific flow of peptides in the body, the chronic suppression of emotions results in a massive disturbance of the psychosomatic network. Pert wonders, could being in touch with our emotions facilitate the flow of the peptides that help destroy errant cells?
