various organs/glands in the body, each with it’s own set of
instructions to send out.
Once secreted, the hormones go through the blood to their target
cells, those that they were made to communicate with. These cells
have receptors, that allow the cell to respond/react to a certain
hormone and it’s specific instructions.
The hormones involved with releasing fat are also tied in with blood
sugar management. If blood sugar becomes low, the body needs to
go get stored fat for fuel. However when blood sugar goes too high,
