      Well if I’m doing a live chat, it’s definitely caffeine because it makes me feel awake or type faster. Otherwise I think serotonin, which is a molecule that’s found in our brains and nervous system and controls our mood. It also has an effect on our sleep patterns and some people believe it is responsible for feeling happy.

      I would say water. Without it, none of us would be here now!
