actually it's ACTH and CORTISOL. and if you look up cortisol you'll find more on the issue of the hormone bing used in "fight or flight." if you like wikipedia i know that the page on cortisol is great, and gives info to what happens at the time those hormones are higher due to stress. hope that helps!
