Adrenaline Rush
An "Adrenaline Rush" is a physiological response that occurs when the body releases the hormone adrenaline, also known as epinephrine. This reaction is triggered by stress or excitement, preparing the body for a "fight or flight" response. During this rush, heart rate increases, blood pressure rises, and energy levels surge, allowing individuals to react quickly to perceived threats or challenges.
This response can be experienced during various activities, such as extreme sports, public speaking, or even watching a thrilling movie. While an adrenaline rush can enhance performance and focus, frequent exposure to high-stress situations may lead to negative health effects over time.
