For many years I've tried to find out a basic reason why we and almost all creatures need to sleep. So taking a break from physics ... Suggestion that a key part of the need for sleep is the body's need to make serotonin, which it does in a symbiotic relationship with gut bacteria in the large intestine. Suggestion that we sleep to first produce serotonin, then to draw it into the body through the extraction of water in the large intestine. Though it can be synthesized, there seems to be a major difference in the health benefits from the microbiome made serotonin, and the artificially made serotonin. Here's some notes on both how important serotonin is and how widespread it is in all living things. Besides mammals, serotonin is found in all bilateral animals including worms and insects,[19] as well as in fungi and in plants.[20] Serotonin's presence in insect venoms and plant spines serves to cause pain, which is a side-effect of serotonin injection.[21][22] Serotonin is produced by pathogenic amoebae, and its effect in the human gut is diarrhea.[23] Its widespread presence in many seeds and fruits may serve to stimulate the digestive tract into expelling the seeds.[24] Gut bacteria manufacture about 95 percent of the body's supply of serotonin, which influences both mood and GI activity. Serotonin was shown to exert functions in innate as well as adaptive immunity. Serotonin stimulates monocytes (23) and lymphocytes (24) and hence influences the secretion of cytokines. Vascular smooth muscle cells respond to serotonin by synthesizing interleukin (IL)-6, a possibly atherogenic mechanism (25) Serotonin is a neurotransmitter than has been identified across all forms of life. In recent years the presence and function of serotonin in plants (phytoserotonin) is becoming an increasingly active area of research. Serotonin has been found to function as a plant growth regulator, and a stress defense molecule.May 24, 2017 Although serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) was discovered 60 years ago (1), the study of serotonin and its receptors continues to yield new biological insights of medical relevance in virtually all major organ systems, including the cardiovascular, pulmonary, gastrointestinal (GI), and genitourinary systems as well as the central nervous system (CNS) (2). Serotonin is made from the essential amino acid tryptophan. An essential amino acid means it can’t be made by your body. It has to be obtained from the foods you eat.

[@user-hy7cg9jg5r]

You will never achive a greater-than-average "happiness". In order to recognize happiness, it must be counterbalanced by unhappiness. Princess and pea. Drawbacks and benefits are always bundled together; you cannot buy them separately. Security is like happiness. You can't reach it, all you ever get is the pursuit.

How do these work when considered from the context of divine intelligent creation?

[@InnerMammalInstitute]

Think about it this way: God does not feed animals; he gave them a brain that learns how to find food and works hard at it every day. Our brain does that too.

[@someonesomeone25]

How do I boost these feel good chemicals to be happy all the time and at mega high levels?

[@dhplaz1475]

Its impossible to be happy all the time because the reason good feelings are good are because they are good compared tho others.

[@someonesomeone25]

@@dhplaz1475 Im not sure thats true. At least, one could argue that having experienced pain just once one could then always have a frame of reference and be happy by being in a state without pain. Additionally, it seems obvious to me that one could theoretically always be in a statenof comfort combined with highly regular intervals of novel pleasure.

Can we chemically induce the emotion of love, fear, rage ??? And what type of hormones is released at that time

[@InnerMammalInstitute]

The chemicals are released in the appropriate situation, and you decide that with neural pathways built from whatever triggered those chemicals in your past. That's why life is complicated! Whatever triggered love, fear, and rage in your past wired you to turn them on in similar situations today.

However, neither serotonin nor oxytocin are "happy chemicals". So this is very misleading. And I also believe that it is important to enlighten your viewers about what endorphins are ... they are one of three major groups of opioids, and their main function is to modulate emotional and physical pain

[@chadgaston8615]

They are exactly once we produce 'under love'. Your 'opinion' wont change this.

[@lexderp2766]

They all are used for the happy chemicals in different ways. Like oxytocin is given when you pet a dog or make love. It’s like physical stuff. Serotonin is used when you complete a task or complete something for someone. It’s like when you do laundry and feel better after. Dopamine I typically hear is drugs and eating so I guess it’s eating? And then endorphins are obv the workout one so yes they’re all good chemicals that promote all tasks for survival

[@dianakastner7509]

@Lex Derp Now, that was a vague reply. None of these chemicals are "happy chemicals", and it's silly to call them that.

[@Dr.Cranny]

My brother. Kindly review neurophysiology deep concepts. Neuropharmacologically, people with depression we treat them with SSRIS ( selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors) such as fluoxetine ..to just simply increase the levels of serotonin in the CNS so as the patient becomes happy again. When you have strong erections your colleagues usually say" this guy has alot of testosterone" but one of the hormones responsible for sexual drive is oxytocin which is an analog to testosterone.. I presume no one gets a high sex drive when sad..hence oxytocin being a happy hormone. So dear brother. Just read deeper, u'll find and understand these things slowly.

Not bad for your body, but if you only focus on dopamine you miss out on serotonin and oxytocin.

@wdym? It's because different behaviors stimulate different chemicals, so if you only focus on dopamine behaviors you may shortchange the others - the book explains simply, and my website.

On a certain level, we have a drug store in our brain, the neurochemicals that show up in flow: so dopamine, norepinephrine, anandamide, endorphins, and serotonin. If you were to try to cocktail the street drug version of that, right, you're trying to blend like heroin and speed and coke and acid and weed- and point is, you can't do it. It turns out the brain can cocktail all of 'em at once, which is why people will prefer flow to almost any experience on Earth. It's our favorite experience. It's the most addictive experience on Earth. Why? 'Cause it cocktails five or six of the largest pleasure drugs the brain can produce. We're all capable of so much more than we know. That is a commonality across the board. And one of the big reasons is we're all hardwired for flow, and flow is a massive amplification of what's possible for ourselves.

Yes, your favorite food or entertainment or travel will spark dopamine at first, but soon you will habituate and want more. Goals spark it too, so it's important to have a variety of goals so you don't just repeat things that are bad for you or not acessible.

Mount Sinai was found in Saudi Arabia, The split rock also in Arabia, The Yom Suph crossing found, Farao's chariot wheel under water, Pillars of Solomon, Sodom and Ghamorrah. Yeshua's blood was tested. The world was created in 6 days and on the seventh day Saturday Shabbat Yehovah Tzeva'ot rested and gave us a double blessing. HalleluYah. Yeshua is alive and is sitting on the right hand of Abba Father, waiting for His Father to make His enemies His footstool. there is no more time to waste on lies. repent. The persecution is coming. You have one chance! Use it wisely. Amen

Mount Sinai is in Egypt and it wasn't "discovered", it's always been there for centuries. I'm not going to talk about the rest of your comment because it's nonsense. Many Christian sects accept that the Genesis is more of a metaphor than a 100% accurate account of the creation of the world.
