Explainer: Can cheese make you have weird dreams?
Is it possible that cheese really can cause strange dreams? Maybe. Jake Port explains.

Our brains are directed by a range of hormones including serotonin, which promotes relaxation and sleepiness, adrenalin, which acts as a stimulant, and testosterone, which regulates libido, fat distribution and strength.
