Adrenaline and the Pescatarian Diet
Adrenaline, also known as epinephrine, is a naturally occurring hormone and neurotransmitter produced by the adrenal glands. It plays a crucial role in the body's fight-or-flight response by increasing heart rate, muscle strength, blood pressure, and sugar metabolism. In medical settings, synthetic adrenaline is used as a medication for treating conditions like anaphylaxis, cardiac arrest, and severe asthma attacks.
