$*********** $ Oonjal Aadum $************$

A/N

""Life on earth is unimaginable without the Sun. Natural light is crucial for our health and well-being. The sunlight helps to regulate the natural rhythms of our body by stimulating our neural system in many ways.

Ever been up in the mountains, at the beach, or in a thunderstorm and suddenly felt a huge change in your mood? That's not just a feeling of awe. It might be negative ions.

Negative ions are molecules floating in the air or atmosphere that have been charged with electricity

Serotonin is a brain chemical that plays an important role in controlling a number of behavioural and cognitive functions. Research supports exposure to negative ions from sunlights induce Serotonin in brain to boost our mood instantly. ""

Negative ions - எதிர்மறை அயனி

In better word ""மாரயனி""

If you remember in early chapters of Oonjal I would have mentioned Mullai is doing M. Phil and further chapters I shared you that her favorite subject is Physics. With that note adding up a detail on Mullai's thesis, which is revolves around negative ions on humans a biophysics experiment.
