At this very moment your nerve cells (neurons) are sending messages to each other, and to your body, via neurotransmitters. These chemical messengers, which include serotonin, acetylcholine, dopamine, epinephrine, GABA and endorphins, are helping to keep your body functioning and regulate your mood and emotions.

Modern science is using drugs that alter neurotransmitters in the treatment of mood and mental health disorders, but there are also natural ways to balance these important biochemicals.
