low sodium leads to less fluid and relative hydration. The role of sodium
in the extracellular fluid is maintaining osmotic equilibrium (the proper

In modern medicine, glandular therapy with the use of whole glands began
in the late nineteenth century when DOCTORS suggested that their patients
eat animal parts, usually from cows, that corresponded to the weak areas
of their own bodies. Therefore, people began eating brains, hearts, and
kidneys, and so on as part of their medical treatment. Technology and
medical endocrinology evolved this therapy by isolation specific hormones
at the source of the activities of the glands (just as we extracted the
active pharmaceutical drugs from whole plants). Glandular therapy is
much more accepted by physicians in other countries, particularly in
EUROPE.
Glandulars such as thyroid, ovary, adrenal, and thymus are not prescription
items and can be purchased by anyone in health food stores. Practitioners
such as Chiropractors, naturopaths, and nutritionists often suggest certain
glandular protomorphogens in an attempt to strengthen or balance the internal
function and energies of their patients/clients.
The adrenals are the glands that help us deal with stress, mineral balances
and inflammation. They release adrenaline into the body to increase activity
and energy. Adrenal Glandulars are often suggested for people who experience
fatigue, stress, environmental sensitivities or allergies, infections, and
hypoglycemia. Pituitary extracts have been employed to enhance body
functions.
