Scientists from the University of Canberra and the University of South Australia were able to determine the degree of influence of the feeling of love on human physiology and psychology. The study was published in the international scientific journal Behavioral Sciences.
It turned out that the behavioral activation system (BAS) is activated in the body of a man or woman, with the help of which the brain and consciousness place the object of adoration or love at the center. The ultimate goal in this chain of emotions is sex as the highest form of pleasure.
Falling in love also causes some changes in brain chemistry. The hormone oxytocin begins to circulate in combination with dopamine, activating romantic thoughts and feelings. At this time, the body receives positive emotions and wants the processes to continue.
All these processes lead to an improvement in overall well-being and have a positive effect on the functioning of organs, the researchers conclude.
Previously, researchers at the Christian-Albrecht University of Kiel (Germany) determined that co-sleeping with a loved one can help improve the quality of night’s rest. At the same time, the level of anxiety also increases against the background of the chaotic movement of the partner’s limbs.
