Hi Ladylove,

 

For just a peak about what you are asking, I may make mention of some ideas concerning what you ask!

 

Adrenal Gland dominance = Person may have larger caliper bones in comparison to other people! Also generally thick and short necks! And their hair is coarser!

 

This type person has a better Digestion system and may get more energy out of the foods they may eat than the other type people!

 

Also this type person may stick to finishing a job until completed, or may we say they may be happy doing the same job over and over again and they are happy with repetition!

 

When this person makes a choice, they are hard to change their mind!

 

Thyroid Gland Dominance = Person who has fine petite features and small size bones and fine hair! They may not get very much energy out of the foods which they may eat and they always have to be into something new all the time!

 

They are "NEVER" satisfied doing the same thing over and over!

 

This type of a person jumps all around in their choice making, and may not be able to stick with completing the job at hand!

 

They do not have much Patience and if they do not have much Pituitary, but enough Adrenal, then they have a Bad Temper and they do not know how to forgive!

 

If the Adrenal is more dominate than the Thyroid, but the thyroid is close and the person has very little Pituitary, this person may have a "VERY" Bad temper and has a real problem with forgiveness towards others!

 

Pituitary Gland Dominance = Person who has long bone structure and is normally much taller than either of the other two types!

 

Their digestive system is not as good as the Adrenal type person either!

 

And this type person may have more respiratory problems because they do not have enough lung capacity for their size!

 

This type person always wants to know about everything and how everything works and because of this they go around in circles and have a hard time making a choice about doing something!

 

This type of a person is generally more Happy go lucky than the other two types of people!

 

The person who is blessed with about an even supply of all three types, may have the best of all and they may make great accomplishments in Life if they want to and do it easily!

 

Then you have all of the mixes in between of all types, which determines how a person may fare in this world!

 

So this is why it is important for a person to acknowledge their weakness and their strong points alike to themselves, so that they may make an effort to overcome their weakness and be more Successful and Happy in life!

 

For "IF" we want to blame everyone else for our shortcomings in Life, then we may never accomplish much and not be Happy in Life!

 

Smile Tis your choice.

In the West, the three basic body types are named according to the apparent strength of the various endocrine glands ( ie. Adrenal type, Pituitary type or Thyroid type ). This classification system is based upon extensive studies of the effects of excess and deficient amounts of hormones from the respective glands ( 15 ). For instance, an "Adrenal type" of person ( ie. strong adrenal glands ) has the same type of features as are caused either by taking excess adrenal hormones over a long period of time, or that result from diseases which cause excessive levels of these hormones ( 15 ). Fundamental to this classification system is the variable size of endocrine glands in different persons.

 

It is well known, especially through the work of the distinguished American scientist, Roger Williams ( 16 ), that the size and weight of endocrine glands vary enormously from person to person. Adrenal glands, for instance, were reported to vary in weight from 7 to 20 grams in normal adults while the thickness of the gland varied from 0.5 to 5.00 mm, or a tenfold variation ( 16 ). This variation, according to Williams, would also be expected to result in a tenfold variation of adrenal activity. A separate study reported the case of a patient, who eventually died from adrenal failure, who was found, at autopsy, to have, no recognizable adrenal gland ( he had some adrenal "tissue" ).

 

[...]

 

The above facts not only highlight the importance of the variation in the size of endocrine glands reported by Williams, but furthermore, when all these facts are combined, it can be seen that the traditional practice of "body typing", not only in India and China, but also in ancient Greece through the influence of Socrates, Hippocrates and Galen, is not without considerable scientific validation.

 

The following features of these different constitutional types of Western medicine have been established by observations of the effects of excess or deficient amounts of hormones from the respective glands and also by the effects of glandular diseases ( 15 ). These observations have also been confirmed in animal studies ( 15 ).

 

 

The Pituitary type is characterized by an overactive mind, poor stamina, susceptibility to stress, and a prominent forehead and brow ( 5, 15 ). According to Bieler ( 15 ), the Pituitary type of patient can ask the "physician more questions than three ordinary minds could explain". The weak adrenal glands of the Pituitary type make this type of patient the most difficult to treat successfully ( 15 ).

 

 

The most prominent features of the Thyroid type are a slim build and an inability to gain weight, restlessness, rapid movements, fine features, and an overactive nervous system ( 5, 15 ). The Thyroid type is frequently "dissatisfied with his surroundings, home, friends, and work" ( 15 ). The thyroid patient "is high-strung, nervous, always changing his mind-and his doctor" ( 15 ).

 

 

The outstanding features of the Adrenal type are the robust build, coarse features, excellent stamina and stress resistance. The Adrenal type, who is an "action" type of person and the "physical powerhouse" of the glandular types ( 5 ), also has remarkable resistance to bacterial infections ( 15 ). According to Bieler ( 15 ), the Adrenal type of patient, who can tolerate more medical treatments and operations than any other glandular type, "usually laughs at new complications of his disease".

 

 

Since most people will not fall totally into one glandular category, it is suggested by Bieler ( 15 ) that, in order to recognize the most predominant gland, each person should be allocated percentage values according to the features they possess. The ideal person, therefore, would have a glandular make-up of Pituitary, 100%; Thyroid, 100%; and Adrenal, 100%. This is described by Bieler as the the "glandular equation" of the person. Using this system, the typical Adrenal type would have a glandular equation of Adrenals 100, Pituitary 50, and Thyroid 25 ( 15 ).

 

The Pituitary type, on the other hand, may have a glandular equation of Pituitary 100, Thyroid 75, and Adrenals 25 ( 15 ). According to Bieler ( 15 ), the Pituitary type with a glandular equation of Pituitary 150, Thyroid 100, and Adrenals 50, would be described as a "genius".
