What are two neurological drugs?
Nicotine is one of the most common drugs that acts on the nervous system. It binds to the same receptors that acetylcholine binds to, creating a similar excitatory effect. This is why nicotine is a stimulant. Nicotine also facilitates the release of dopamine in the brain, giving smokers that relaxed, more alert feeling. Another drug that affects the nervous system is alcohol. In low doses, it acts as a stimulate, partially because it acts on glutamate receptors (glutamate is the most common excitatory neurotransmitter in the brain). However, in high doses, alcohol is a depressant, acting on GABA receptors (GABA is a major inhibitory neurotransmitter). Alcohol causes motor, cognitive, verbal, and perceptual impairments. However, nicotine is one of the most addictive substances in the United States, and both drugs have serious side effects on other areas of the body.
How does tobacco affect your emotional health?
Tobacco are found to interfere with the Acetylcholine or the neurotransmitter in the ganglionic area along the synapse, thus interfering in the transmission of nerve impulses from the organs to the brain. The blockage of the transmission along the synapse thus interferes with the emotional health of the human body. That's why its said that humans can hear colors and see sound when they consume tobacco or marijuana.
