with excess...what will happen?

Back 20

iodine; w/o: hypothyroidism (low metabolism, gain weight, more sluggish); too much: hyperthyroidism (high metabolism, lose weight, higher blood pressure)

in what form do the hormones from the adrenal cortex come in?

Back 24

steroid

Front 25

what is glucogenesis?

Back 25

produce glucose from fats and proteins and release "new" glucose into blood. Targets body cells to use fats for feul instead of glucose, causing an increase in blood glucose levels and increased body metabolism.
