MANIFEST (zine): Stressed Spelled Backwards Is DESSERTS

Issue #12, Stressed Spelled Backwards Is DESSERTS

You know that good feeling you get when you eat dessert? That’s your brain’s reward system releasing dopamine. Researchers have shown that sweets rival sex and cocaine when it comes to dopamine triggers. Think about that.

Dessert — it’s as good as sex!

That explains a lot, doesn’t it? Researchers have also found that sugar inhibits stress-induced cortisol secretion, minimizing feelings of anxiety and tension. Maybe that’s why STRESSED Spelled Backwards Is DESSERTS!
