• Glands make hormones and organs usually
don’t!
Hormones
Hormone Feedback Loop

Thyroid Hormones
•Controls
metabolism
•Protein making
(hairs, nails,
collagen)
•Temperature
•Digestion
•Carbohydrate & Fat

Calcium
Adrenal Glands
•Anti-Inflammatory
•Blood Sugar
Control
•Stress Control
•Hydration Control
•Blood Pressure
Control
•Cholesterol

•Vitamin D Control
Gonads
•Make hormones that
create female
characteristics.
•Controls menstrual cycle
•Makes eggs
•Controls fertility
•Creates testosterone that gives
male characteristics.
•Produces sperm
•Libido
•Bone and muscle influences
•Vitality
Pancreas
•Controls Blood Sugars
•Releases enzymes to
digest food.
Electrolytes
• Electro: Latin word for “amber”
• Lyte: Greek word for “loose”
Sodium
Potassium
Magnesium
Calcium
Chloride
***Allow for fluids, nutrition and stuff
to move around the body, into and out
of the cells, along the nerves, muscles,
etc.
Are used to generate electrical signals (transmit messages)
Metabolism & Energy
• Mineral Generator Pumps convert chemical
energy into electrical energy (20% of the cells
energy & 60% of nerve cells energy).
• Sodium (Na+) – Potassium (K+) Pump
• Each cell has 8,000,000 – 3 million pumps.

–
Generate electrical charge
Moves calcium
Moves glucose, amino acids and vitamins.
Allows nerves to communicate and muscles to move.
Requires lot of energy to work (30% of your food)
Sodium – Potassium Pump
• Controls energy in the cells, muscles &
especially nerves.
• Controls blood pressure
• Controls nutrients in the cell
• Controls fluid volume
• Controls the calcium in the cells (muscles
contract and relax)
• Controls the hydration of the cells
Potassium Deficiency
• Prevents calcium from allowing the muscles to relax
(esp. arteries) – HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE
– 60% of American adults has HBP
• Increases blood pressure directly – low potassium –
high sodium.
• Low nerve conduction – weak heart
• Low muscle strength – weak muscles, esp. walking up
stairs.
• Low voltage – fatigue
• Hearing loss, depression, fluid retention
• Low stomach acids
Why are we so Deficient?
• Low dietary potassium (needed more than any
other mineral)
• Stressed Adrenal
• Low Thyroid
• Drinking too much water
• Alcohol, Surgery, Caffeine, Diuretic, Diarrhea,
Vomiting, Sweating
• Sugar, triggering insulin resistance.
(Insulin triggers the Na+-K+ pump)

Getting up twice or more over night to pass urine
Frequent urinary tract infections
Feeling the bladder is not completely empty
Poor urine flow
Straining to get the bladder to empty
Rushing to the toilet (urgency to pass urine)
Wetting the bed while asleep
Vitamin B1 Deficiency

Acts as a helper to break down sugar.
Low B1 –brain atrophy
Nerve damage in feet and hands
Loss of memory, nightmares
Edema
Irregular heart beats
Increase heart rate
Heart enlargement
Causes of Low B1
