So, what is adrenaline?
Adrenaline, also known as epinephrine, is a hormone and neurotransmitter produced by the adrenal glands that plays a crucial role in the body's "fight or flight" response. It increases heart rate, blood pressure, and breathing rate, providing a surge of energy to help the body respond to stress or danger. In addition to its physiological effects, adrenaline has also been used in medicine as a treatment for severe allergic reactions, cardiac arrest, and asthma. However, excessive levels of adrenaline in the body can lead to symptoms such as anxiety, restlessness, and high blood pressure.
How to quickly find the source of ingredients like adrenaline?

It allows you to avoid non-vegan ingredients - just take a picture of a product's ingredient list, and the app tells you if the product is vegan or not.
