A brief review of recent studies that reveal a novel central-nervous-system-mediated brain-liver axis that bypasses endocrine pathways to boost hepatic glucose production. It seems to me the 🧠 and autonomic nervous system has its hand in everything. linkinghub.elsevier.com/retrieve/pii/S…

Does pounding of heart make one feel afraid, or does the feeling of fear cause heart to race? The Cannon-Bard and James-Lange theories have shaped a century of debate on emotion and physiology. Biologically, the brain and body dialogue is dynamic, continuous, & bi-directional!

The best way to tune the immune system is through the nervous system. This is because cytokines act more like on/off switches, while neuropeptides volume dials.
