Hormones are chemicals in the body that are produced by the endocrine glands.
Hormones move through the body with the help of the blood circulation system and reach the organs and tissues in this way.
Hormones are essential for the following functions:
- Appetite and metabolism;
- Sleep cycle;
- Heartbeat;
- Sexual and reproductive function;
- Growth and development;
- Mood and stress level;
- Body temperature.
Hormonal imbalance occurs when the body produces more or less hormones than it needs.
