ROMANTIC LOVE
Italian scientists found a chemical in the brain which makes us romantic. the chemical is called Nerve Growth Factor or (NGF)  It comes from the rush of adrenalin and love of life that occur when new love blossoms. They analyzed 58 volunteers who had recently fallen in love. They found increased levels of NGF in the new romantics and that it causes sweaty palms and butterflies in the stomach  and sometimes made young men buy red roses and candlelit dinners, but that his chemical disappears when the couple feel more secure in the relationship.
