What is the miracle hormone?

endorphins It is one of the hormones of happiness responsible for changing a person's mood, which increases his sense of comfort and calm, and thus leads him to happiness.

This hormone is present in both humans and animals in particular in the nervous system

In addition, more than 20 types of endorphins have been discovered, some of which are found in the brain and others in the pituitary gland.

Endorphins are the miracle hormone in the human body due to their obvious benefits on the body:

When a person feels pain and tension, he secretes endorphins, which work to relieve pain, and its effect in relieving pain is similar to that of (morphine, codeine, cocaine, heroin).

But why do we resort to these toxic substances when our body can naturally produce endorphins, knowing that this hormone does not lead to addiction?

Because endorphins are accompanied by the secretion of inxone, which makes it safe for the body.

It also works to enhance the feeling of happiness, pleasure and psychological comfort, so it is called the hormone of happiness.
