Professor on the adrenal cortex:
“The cells under the capsule in the zona glomerulosa are involved in SALT metabolism. The cells in the next layer, the zona fasciculata, are involved in SUGAR metabolism. The zona reticularis secretes weak androgens, SEX hormones. So what do we have in it’s most simple, basic terms? We have salt, sugar and sex. The deeper you go, the better it gets.”
