abandoned it. Stephen William Hawking

５６－２　Oxytocin, OXT
○Oxytocin can decrease anxiety and protect against stress. It's sometimes known as the "cuddle hormone" or the "love hormone," because it is released when people snuggle up or bond socially. Oxytocin is normally produced by the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus and released by the posterior pituitary. [1]

※Hypothalamus [2]

○However, excessive intake leads to decrease of the oxytocin receptor, and increase in the aggressiveness and the sense of insecurity. [3]
