| Hi. I am a 21 years old art student, and I have upcoming test in anatomy. I know that this hasn't got to do with that at all, but I would like to know the uses of epinephrine in the body. As I understand, Epinephrine is adrenaline. I know little about it, but I am eager to know more and more about the human body. Thanks in front. |

| Adrenalin (epinephrine) is a hormone. It is released from adrenal glands whenever you are in some dangerous or stressful situation. It floods the endocrine gland into the bloodstream, which makes a human body more ready to act. Basically, it makes your body be more physically ready for the threatening situations. |
