Hormones and their function

What we know today: It is the perfect balance of a number of transmitters which keeps us healthy. This knowledge provides us with considerable diagnostic and therapeutic opportunities. Thus, the careful addition of natural substances can effectively prevent functional deficits, deficiencies and diseases and significantly decelerate degenerative processes.

Essential functions

To begin with, let us explain the essential bodily functions in which hormones are involved:

• Sexuality and reproduction: Hormones control our libido, the production of eggs and sperm cells, fertilisation, nurturing of the child in the womb, regulation of birth processes and development of the milk glands.
• Growth and development: Hormones regulate the metabolism of muscles, bones and tissues.
• General health: Hormones mobilise the immune defences when exposed to emotional stress, thirst, hunger, heat, cold, injury and infections.
• Cell metabolism and energy balance: Hormones ensure the optimal utilisation of nutrients and maintain all bodily functions and cells. They also regulate the balance of fluids and nutrients in the body.
