The hormones we produce in our adrenal glands are necessary for proper glucose metabolism, optimal immune function, and normal blood pressure. Today's world of high stress, of lifestyle habits that deprive us of adequate rest and exercise, and of dietary choices fraught with caffeine and refined sugars, take their toll on the adrenal glands. The adrenal glands are responsible for producing a special group of hormones known as corticosteroids. These hormones are necessary for glucose metabolism, immune function, and maintaining proper electrolyte balance and healthy blood pressure. Thorne's Adrenal Cortex supports the normal function of the adrenal glands. *FDA Disclaimer: These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.
