It takes only a fraction of a second for stress, whether it’s thinking about work or a loud noise to set off a chain reaction that affects everything from our eyesight to the muscles in our legs. The response begins in the brain, where the hypothalamus releases a fight-or-flight chemical called Corticotropin Releasing Hormone (CRH). CRH travels to our pituitary gland that secretes Adreno- corticotropin Hormone (ACTH), which travels to the adrenal glands on top of our kidneys. The result is adrenaline, a powerful stimulant. In an instant the above changes, and many others, take place.
