Crazy Shit I Found on the Internet

FALL IN LOVE OR SNORT COCAINE - IT'S YOUR CHOICE >>>

According to Medical News Today, falling in love affects intellectual areas of the brain and triggers the same sensation of euphoria experienced by people when they do cocaine. Researchers from Syracuse University found that when someone falls in love, several euphoria-inducing chemicals, such as vasopression, adrenaline, oxytocin and dopamine are released simultaneously in the brain.

Researchers also found that when couples had just fallen in love, their blood levels of NGF (nerve growth factor, the molecule key in romantic chemistry) had significantly risen. Syracuse University Professor Stephanie Ortigue believes their findings confirm that love does have a scientific basis.

So, on that note. Happy molecular based, non-fated Valentine's Day week!
