What is Understanding Adrenal Gland Functions about?

The adrenal gland is comprised of an outer cortex and inner medulla. The cortex secretes glucocorticoids like cortisol and corticosterone, the mineralocorticoid aldosterone, and adrenal androgens. These hormones help regulate metabolism, sodium levels, and coping with stress. The medulla secretes catecholamines such as epinephrine and norepinephrine which stimulate glucose production and lipolysis to counter hypoglycemia.
