Scientifically, neurotransmitters are chemical messengers that
communicate with different parts of the brain and the nervous
system. Neurotransmitters have control over both physical and
psychological functions such as sleep, appetite, mood, and
fear. These chemical messengers are constantly stimulating
the brain to keep it functioning.
These are some of the most crucial neurotransmitters that
need to be created within the body. Epinephrine is both
a hormone and neurotransmitter that is related to stress.
Norepinephrine helps the body and brain make decisions
during times of danger or stress. Dopamine is involved in the
coordination of the body, reward, and motivation. Serotonine
regulates mood, sleep, anxiety, sexuality, and appetite. With
that, it is crucial to find ways to regulate all of these important
neurotransmitters to keep our body healthy.
