Given all research I have seen on disintegration of plaques, I was wondering why nobody thought about human applications:

🧠 how the brain understands speech: it encodes sounds → words → meaning in a hierarchical dynamic code (HDC). Higher-level features evolve slower, letting the brain track language over time without interference.

💡 2/ This “allostasis-first” view reframes neuroscience:
The brain predicts energy needs before they arise.
Psychological processes are scaffolds for bodily regulation.
Even diseases like Alzheimer’s can be reinterpreted through disrupted allostasis

🧠 1/ It’s not the thought that counts

"Allostasis is predictive regulation, distinguished from the concept of homeostasis, which involves reactive regulation to perturbations that return a system back to an optimal set point."

The brain primary job isn’t to think but to regulate

2/3 These brain differences partly mediate the link between inequality and later mental health problems (like anxiety & depression). In other words, inequality leaves a biological footprint, changing neurodevelopment in ways that affect well-being.
