The endocrine system refers to the collection of glands of an organism that secrete hormones directly into the circulatory system to be carried towards distant target organs. The major endocrine glands include the pineal gland, pituitary gland, pancreas, ovaries, te**es, thyroid gland, parathyroid gland, hypothalamus, and adrenal glands. The endocrine system is in contrast to the exocrine system, which secretes its hormones to the outside of the body using ducts. The endocrine system is an information signal system like the nervous system, yet its effects and mechanism are classifiably different. The endocrine system's effects are slow to initiate, and prolonged in their response, lasting from a few hours up to weeks. The nervous system sends information very quickly, and responses are generally short lived. In vertebrates, the hypothalamus is the neural control center for all endocrine systems. The field of study dealing with the endocrine system and its disorders is endocrinology, a branch of internal medicine. Special features of endocrine glands are, in general, their ductless nature, their vascularity, and commonly the presence of intracellular vacuoles or granules that store their hormones. In contrast, exocrine glands, such as salivary glands, sweat glands, and glands within the gastrointestinal tract, tend to be much less vascular and have ducts or a hollow lumen.
In addition to the specialized endocrine organs mentioned above, many other organs that are part of other body systems, such as bone, kidney, liver, heart and go**ds, have secondary endocrine functions. For example, the kidney secretes endocrine hormones such as erythropoietin and renin. Hormones can consist of either amino acid complexes, steroids, eicosanoids, leukotrienes, or prostaglandins.
A number of glands that signal each other in sequence are usually referred to as an axis, for example, the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis.
As opposed to endocrine factors that travel considerably longer distances via the circulatory system, other signaling molecules, such as paracrine factors involved in paracrine signalling diffuse over a relatively short distance.
Each glands has a specific role for a specific action which make the life active in every moment of the body chemistry,
Get into the better understanding of every glands before getting into the art of healing through meditation, it really can lead you the perfect way of curing any kind of challenging illness, the day you feel your hormones and get your mind into the understanding of hormones and make it help the brain to stimulate or control or relax the certain hormones when it actually needed to be.
Please share with your friends and all your fitness teachers and trainers, so they get a key start to understand the science of human body ad it's natural healing through understanding the actual chemistry,
For more information on all glands and other science of human and nature please mail me at noblesrinivasan@gmail.com or follow me at Instagram or Facebook and get my updates or get consultation from a MPhil or PHD students of medical health and human psychology field, for better understanding and user friendly knowledge that is always safe for all kind of people.
Thank you
