Adrenal Function

Adrenal glands produce hormones that help regulate your metabolism, immune system, blood pressure, response to stress and other essential functions. 

Adrenal glands are composed of two parts — the cortex and the medulla — which are each responsible for producing different hormones.

 - High blood pressure.
 - Muscle and bone weakness.
