Question: Adrenaline can make an ordinary person do extraordinary things. What are
the causes of an ‘adrenaline rush’ and the effects? Use specific details and examples
to support your answer.
According to recent research of America health board, after people drinks
Red-Bull, that is well known as energy drink, there are 9 cases of side effect. Even
one 15 years old boy died who drinks Red-Bull and Monster together. Plenty of
caffeine causes the adrenaline, and it makes adrenaline rush. This happens when
the brain does not communicate well with glands, secretion of adrenaline from
adrenal glands increase suddenly. Adrenaline rush can have great ripple effects.
There are three main effects of disorder of the brain or adrenal glands in human’s
body: stress hormones, health degeneration, and unexpected death.
Magnesium of the minerals has the most correlation with stress. When human’s body
feels stress, adrenaline secretion makes magnesium emissions outwards of body.
These extreme emissions cause the lack of magnesium, as a result stress appears.
According to a research team in the January 2008 issue of PNAS, continuous
increased level of stress hormones can lead to retract the brain's main memory
center. If these stress hormones turn to the chronic stress, person’s total body takes
a sudden turn for the worse.
Human is an animal that can be addicted easily to something but adrenaline
addiction is not an exception. When people dose strenuous exercise, adrenaline rush
can happen. For example, exerciser reaches the ‘runner’s high’, which feel raised
pleasures after the exercise, they has a fresh mind and interest of running. However
if people are addicted to runner’s high, they do not quit the exercise and for a long
term it is not good for health. As a result, adrenaline addiction causing the excessive
secretion can lead to health degeneration such as the vasoconstriction, which brings
about the adult diseases, and make the aging process early.
In spite of various risks of adrenaline rush, some people tend to think that adrenaline
is an unconditional good material to body. Because they feel the powerful energy
when adrenaline rush happen. However in America or Canada, there are lots of
cases because of ignorance. First case is that people die unexpectedly after they
drink the 5 bottles of energy drinks in a fit of anger. Second case is the confusion
between energy drink and sport drink. Even energy drinks contain the caffeine and
sport drinks contain the ion to hydrate after the exercise. Like this, human’s terrible
ignorance can cause the unexpected death.
In conclusion, the most important caution of adrenaline rush is what people always
recognize.
Although adrenaline is vital hormones for humane body, excess of adrenaline is
directly connected to hazards. If people always pay attention to this fact, lack of
magnesium, addiction of adrenaline, and even unexpected death can prevent
beforehand.
