molecules that affect our body are usually very reactive molecule who are on a stable state only thanks to the fact that their “less energic” form requires a tiny push to be reached. That tiny push can come from heat, chemical reaction or light. That’s why some alcohols, medecines and spices have to be kept in a dark and cold environment: so they don’t get pushed to their less energic and unwanted form.
