Answer:
- Adrenaline hormone which is also called as an emergency hormone or triple F hormone (FFF- Fight, Fright, Flight). It is produced in the medulla in the adrenal glands as well as some of the central nervous system's neurons. Within a couple of minutes during a stressful situation, it is quickly released into the blood, sending impulses to organs to create a specific response. The impact of adrenaline release in our body are as follows:
- Adrenaline triggers the body's fight-or-flight response. This reaction causes air passages to dilate to provide the muscles with the oxygen they need to either fight danger or flee.
- It also triggers the blood vessels to contract to re-direct blood toward major muscle groups, including the heart and lungs.
- The body's ability to feel pain also decreases as a result of adrenaline.
- Blood vessels dilate (enlarge) in our muscles.
- Blood vessels constrict in our digestive tract to slow digestion.
- Kidneys make more renin (to increase blood pressure).
- Glucose production increases, for energy.
- After the stress has subsided, adrenaline’s effect can last for up to an hour.
