Stress hormones are produced by the hypothalamus and the autonomic nervous system to generate a survival response, which minimizes the ability of the prefrontal cortex (the logic center of the brain) to generate a response. Then, the emotional importance is determined by the amygdala.

An imbalance in these electrolytes can disrupt normal bodily functions and may lead to symptoms like headaches, fatigue, or even severe conditions. Suboptimal sodium status preferentially affects the central nervous system, whereas suboptimal potassium and calcium status can significantly affect neuromuscular manifestations.

Endogenous creatine synthesis occurs in the brain and nervous system. In particular, deficits in brain PCr that may be caused by aging and acute stressors (such as sleep deprivation or chronic conditions), or by creatine synthesis enzyme deficiencies, may offer a potential field for creatine support.

GABA is a non-protein amino acid that acts as the primary inhibitory neurotransmitter in the brain and central nervous system. Conditions related to chronic stress can influence catecholamine levels in the body, which may have downstream effects including increased oxidative stress and changes to glucose metabolism.

But perhaps none is as bizarre as a favorite of bike racers and marathoners of the early 1900s: strychnine, a powerful stimulant to the central nervous system, unless you take too much, in which case it can stimulate you half way to heaven. It dilates coronary vessels and stimulates the central nervous system and respiratory center.

In vitro studies reveal the concentration of glutathione in the central nervous system (CNS) is highest in astrocytes and followed by neurons. Depleted brain glutathione status is associated with various neurogenerative conditions and diseases, such as mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's disease.

The vagus nerve , the tenth cranial nerve, facilitates this communication via the enteric nervous system. The bidirectional communication between the gut and the brain, known as the gut-brain axis , plays a vital role in the human body. Optimal brain function may promote optimal gut function, and vice versa.
