You swayed because the brain believes that you are poisoned

Another misconception mozga



The human body is amazing, even the seemingly negative manifestations. For example, motion sickness may seem like nothing more than an unnecessary and very annoying, but in fact your body is trying to protect you.

Part of the hypothalamus called the area postrema is responsible for calling vomit when poison is found in the body, as well as to resolve conflicts between vision and balance. When the body senses motion, but does not see it (eg on a ship), you realize that something is wrong. In particular, the brain may determine that you have hallucinations, and the reason for that - the poisoning.

To get rid of the poison, the body resorts to vomit. So the next time you seasick, do not be angry with your own body - remember, your body is trying to help you.
