THE MIRACLE OF HORMONES

other conditions that could result in death. Moreover, remember that the
veins, arteries, and capillaries in our bodies have a total length of more
than 100 thousand kilometers. Given this, you can safely guess that you
could not possibly perform this duty.
3. It is known that NO is used as a messenger in our brain during the
process of learning. These operations are so complex that a large part of
them is still not understood. Therefore, the concerted efforts of the whole
scientific world could not possibly accomplish this messenger function,
let alone you, a single individual.
4. Do not forget the part played by nitric oxide in the successful fight
by the immune system against viruses and bacteria.
5. Moreover, in this section we have not touched on the role of the
messenger in the functioning of the lungs, liver, kidneys, stomach and
the reproductive system. When you take the place of NO in a human
body, you must understand the language of all these organs; you must be
an expert in them all. Of course, this is not enough because there is noth-
ing that can be compared to the human body with all its organs working
in harmony and all its trillions of cells performing incredibly complex
functions.
6. Finally, you must keep in mind that, if this messenger is not used
in the right proportion, with the right timing and in just the right place,
harmful and dangerous results could occur. This could be compared to a
person who has done very complicated processes with dynamite or some

other explosive substance every moment for 60-70 years and who has not
miscalculated by even one second in the complex operations he has per-
formed.
No matter how much of an expert you are, you must confess that
you would not be able to do what this molecule does, even with the help
of the most advanced computers and laboratories.
Certainly, the nitric oxide messenger molecule has been created by
God Who has "created everything and determined it most exactly…"
