ISA Rolls' laboratory has shown that when the so-called dopamine system, and at several episodes I described, there are multiple dopamine systems, but the so-called mesolimbic reward pathway involving areas like the nucleus accumbens, et cetera, when the reward system that's associated with dopamine and norepinephrine is activated, you see incredible effects, including, for.

immune system
Summary

A person's motivational state and mindset can have a significant impact on the immune system, according to research from Rolls' laboratory. Focusing on the reward system associated with dopamine and norepinephrine, researchers discovered specific biological pathways and protocols that could activate or inhibit the pathway and its effects on the immune system.

Corticolimbic pathway
Summary

The corticolimbic pathway links the areas of the brain associated with thought, emotion, and prior history with the parts responsible for controlling basic physiological processes. This allows our thoughts and experiences to affect our physiology in a structural way.
