Aspirin is a pharmaceutical drug often used to treat pain, fever, and inflammation. A drug is any substance (other than food that provides nutritional support) that, when inhaled, injected, smoked, consumed, absorbed via a patch on the skin, or dissolved under the tongue causes a physiological change in the body.
In a crisis, the sympathetic division of your autonomic nervous system (ANS) mobilizes your body for action, directing your adrenal glands to release the stress hormone epinephrine (adrenaline) and norepinephrine (noradrenaline). To provide energy, your liver pours extra sugar into your bloodstream.
The sympathetic nerve system is used by your body in response to stress, or, in other words, anything that your body perceives as a threat. Acting intelligently, your bodyâs response to threats is to prepare for action: fight-or-flight. Even thinking of a stressful event will cause you to experience the influence of the sympathetic nerve system in your body. To do this, however, there is a cost.
