What ARE hormones and WHERE do they come from?
Hormones are substances that are secreted directly into the blood
stream !
Hormones are produced by the glands of the Endocrine System!
Some hormones act on the cells of the gland that produced them;
other hormones act on neighboring cells!

is an incredibly nely tuned system.

If just ONE of the glands is not functioning
properly, then the whole system is
compromised. That is why treating only one
gland at a time will not bring about balance
to the body.
