Endocrine System | Endocrine Awareness Center for Health The body’s internal environment is monitored and regulated by a chemical communication network. Working alongside the nervous system, endocrine glands produce hormones that control and coordinate many bodily functions. These hormones regulate the body’s growth, metabolism, sexual development, emotional responses and mental processes. The major glands of the endocrine system are the hypothalamus, pituitary, thyroid, parathyroids, adrenals, pineal, ovaries and testes. The pancreas is also a part of this system; it has a role in hormone production as well as in digestion. Hormones are powerful chemicals that work by altering the activity of their target cells. Although hormones come into contact with essentially all cells of the body they produce an effect only on certain cells called target cells. A hormone can have several different target cells, though these do not all react to the hormone in the same way. Different factors stimulate the production and release of hormones.

Witch Hazel Reviews I've had acne since I was in fourth grade; now I'm nearing the end of my senior year and am still struggling with my acne. I ran across Witch Hazel in the store, and I already knew the herb itself has a history of being used to heal, so I decided to take a chance and buy it. When everything else has failed, you just kinda try anything and everything that seems even moderately promising. I started using it about a week ago, and already I can see the results. It's real gentle, doesn't burn or irritate. I have picky skin. As I said before, in any case, I've only been using it for a week, and my face has cleared up considerably. I'm really hoping that this continues to work.
naturalskin: ACV Toner / Aspirin Tea Mask / Thanks! First of all, I want to thank everybody who replied to my previous entry about ACV, aspirin masks and scalp problems! I took all of your scalp suggestions into consideration and I'm hoping that I'll be flake free soon in the future. :D -----------------------------------ACV TonerI fine-tuned and completed my ACV toner recipe and it is AWESOME. I honestly never thought I would ever find a toner that actually did anything except wet my face and infuse it with lovely engineered chemicals, so I pretty much forgot about them until I ran accross ACV fanatics at the acne.org red marks forum. Anyway, here's my recipe:3 to 4 ounces of Apple Cider Vinegar4 to 5 ounces of boiled water4 Green Tea bags1 Chamomile Tea bagJojoba oil (optional) & Tea Tree oil (optional)5-7 finely crushed plain aspirin pills Steep the tea bags in the water and let it sit there for at least 30 minutes. When the water is cool, be sure to squeeze out all of the trapped tea liquid from the bags before you throw them away!
