Brain Chemistry

Meaning

Brain Chemistry refers to the intricate and dynamic balance of neurotransmitters, neuropeptides, hormones, and their complex interactions that govern neuronal communication and overall cerebral function. This finely tuned biochemical environment dictates an individual’s mood, cognitive performance, sleep architecture, stress response capacity, and various complex behavioral patterns. Optimal brain chemistry is inextricably linked to endocrine health, as many systemic hormones directly modulate neurotransmitter synthesis and receptor sensitivity within the central nervous system.
