and the like. The structure of the pituitary is divided into two parts: the
posterior lobe, which is an outgrowth from part of the brain, and the anterior
lobe, being an outgrowth from the pharynx. The pituitary is attached and
lives under the hypothalamus portion of your brain (behind the eyes in the
middle of the head).
The pituitary, being the master gland, controls some of the functions of
most other glands. When the pituitary becomes weakened it can affect the
whole body, causing a chain reaction, thereby producing multiple symptoms.
The pituitary gland can affect the thyroid or adrenal glands in a positive or
negative way. It is important to understand these reflex possibilities to help
you address your weaknesses properly and to gain more successful results.
Some of the far-reaching effects of a weakened pituitary gland include
neurological weaknesses such as: multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s, and cerebral
palsy (from lack of adrenal cortex stimulation), as well as hypothyroidism,
hypo-function of the ovaries, underactive or overactive tissue or cell growth,
rapid aging, diabetes, and lactation problems.
The middle of the transverse colon (large intestine) has a relationship to
the pituitary and brain. Oftentimes this part of the bowel becomes impacted,
toxic and weakened, thereby feeding toxins directly to the pituitary gland.
Being one of the first areas of the body formed in the embryo stages of life,
the GI tract is linked to all tissues in the body in ways we do not yet
understand. We do know that in the embryo stages the spinal cord and the gut
tissues are the first manifestation from the head area. As the embryo cell
opens up, this gut tissue now becomes the source of most of our organs and
glands. This gut tissue in the fetus later becomes the GI tract, thus creating a
dynamic relationship between the GI tract and the rest of the body. Because
of this, it is vital that you clean and strengthen the GI tract in your
detoxification program, that is, if you wish to have true success at
regenerating your glands, as well as your whole body.
PINEAL GLAND
The pineal gland is a small, flattened, cone-shaped gland located behind and
just above the eyebrows (connected to the roof of the 3rd ventricle of the
brain). Scientific research hasn’t revealed much about this endocrine gland as
of yet. We know that it synthesizes melatonin, which is a hormone that
relaxes you and aids in the sleep process. Melatonin may affect skin and hair
