It's because an essential protein got misfolded while the body decays, these misfolded proteins can misfold other protein and suddenly your brain is full of useless molecules instead of what it needs.
All of them. Every prion disease affects the same protein in the brain. They’re all 100% fatal degenerative encephalitis diseases and they just plain suck.
idk anything but I'd imagine most hormones don't aerosolize very well and burning them would probably change them as well. you could probably get results by vaping them? brains do have a lot of moisture to be evaporated but like. most of it isn't hormones
Just did some quick research and it looks like most hormones aren't too polar, but hey worst case scenario I'll just ask everyone to carry around their personal brain nebulizer and take breaths as needed
