andrenaline, what is it?


Question:
i know its a hormone, but i don't want to know the scientific stuff. i mean how does it make u feel?

Answers:
Adrenaline is a chemical your brain secretes to allow you to do one of two things, "fight" or "flee" when faced with danger. That's only in the wild of course, with humans now a days it's just a feel good brain chemical we get a rush of exitement and energy from.
Adrenaline, also called epinephrine, is your body's closest approximation of speed or meth. It revs up everything in your body, makes you stronger and faster, and improves your senses so that you see and hear more sharply. It puts everything in your body on alert.

As soon as the adrenaline drains, you will feel tired and will probably have to soon urinate. It really is something like being on meth, only it lasts for only a short time.
It's a chemical released by the adrenal glands that give a person the "fight or flight" response. When someone startles you, adrenaline is released and your heart rate increases, your muscles receive a larger portion of your blood to strengthen them, your pupils dilate to see better and your bronchi(the tubes which bring the air in and out of your lungs) dilate so you have more oxygen available to you. thus the "fight or flight" You are ready to fight back or run swiftly away.

This is really a very simple answer. In depth you could study the 2 types of adrenaline, epinephrine and norepineprine which act in opposite ways. The human body is a marvelous thing, reacting with such complexity on a seconds command.
yeah its scary vote for me please??!!!!
