Document Summary

Adrenal insufficiency helps facilitate how we use glucose/ nutrients. Even if we take the nutrients and stuff, we aren"t using them as well. Cortisol puts the nutrients into circulation, do metabolism, etc, but without cortisol we can"t them into circulation. Don"t want to take up a lot of storage in our brains so we can make our glands bigger. Only need a couple of endocrine 1 and 2 and can get a lot of endocrine 3s. Portal vasculature and the axon is located there. If it travels through the axon and neuron goes to ppg no endocine 2 made oxytocin or vasopressin get released at ppg and that"s it: no e2 and e3 for vasopressin or oxytocin. No because they are polar and plasma is polar. Most abundant is t4 but t3 is still more effective safer for t4 to travel more because it does it easier. T3 has a higher affinity for the receptors = why its more active.
