See the transformation occurs, lots of hormones flying all over, then the new balance is found, then the hormones flood out and are replaced with the right ones... the 'natural state' so to speak and then tada! Transformation again."
Hitting a few keys Jack brought up his own bioreadings, "See here's me though. Flood of Hormones, transformation... flood of hormones out and they just... replenish. No natural state, which I gotta tell ya Martha... it's alarming."
