Adrenalin, or epinephrine, is called the "fight or flight" hormone. It revs your body up to get ready to fight off danger, or to run for your life. Adrenalin is a leftover of our days as primitive humans living in the wilds and being in danger of being eaten by saber-toothed cats and other predators. Adrenalin causes increased heartbeat, breathing, and blood pressure; muscle tension and shaking; digestive upset (nausea, diarrhea, cramping); and feelings of panic.
