The brain makes love decisions lightning fast

Many people think that couples have to date and have dinner together for several months before saying love, but a study shows that our brains only take a fifth of a second to decide whether to love someone or not.

According to Discovery , scientists at Syracuse University and West Virginia University in the US, University of Geneva in Switzerland want to know the time that the brain needs to "love" the body's love. So they analyzed previous neurological studies. The common point of these studies is that scientists apply brain tomography to get data.

The general conclusion of most studies is: People enjoy many benefits when love appears in their lives.

The concentration of neuronal growth stimulants (NGF) in the brains of the lovers increased significantly after they began to love each other. NGF plays a vital role for sympathetic and sensory neurons. Even some scientists believe that NGF reduces the rate of degeneration of nerve cells.

The thinking process of the brain is influenced by love. When a person has an affection for love, the person's ability to imagine, use words and even feel about himself will change in a more positive way.

However, what surprised the most experts was that the human brain only took about a fifth of a second to decide whether we should love someone or not. In addition, they found 12 brain regions involved in the process of love. They secrete dopamine, oxytocin, adrenaline and vasopressin - substances that are called "chemicals of love ". If love is too passionate, then people will suffer from the same syndrome as drug addiction.
