Hypothalamus
"The hypothalamus gland is the facilitator and the originator of the following life circumstances, all expressions of fear, anxiety, stress, tension, panic, panic attacks, phobia, rage, anger and aggression are released and facilitated by this one gland. It only responds to you emotionally and spiritually. The hypothalamus is called the brain of the endocrine system, but it is a gland. It is a responder to thought."
"Immunosuppression or Immune Deficiency and Autoimmune Disease: Over secretion of cortisol and catecholamines destroy the immune system, and the result is autoimmune diseases. The Hypothalamus controls over 23 hormones including these two. Autoimmune diseases occur when the white corpuscles attack living flesh and destroy it. Lupus, Crones, Diabetes, Rheumatoid Arthritis and MS are examples."
"1. It controls and integrates the autonomic nervous system, which stimulates muscles, regulates the rate of contraction of cardiac muscle and controls the secretion of many glands. Through the autonomic nervous system, the hypothalamus is the main regulator of body activities. It regulates heart rate, movement of food through the digestive track and contraction of the urinary bladder.
2. It is involved in the reception of sensory impulses of the fasera.
3. It is the principle intermediary between the nervous system and the endocrine system, the two major control systems of the body.
4. It is the center for the mind over body phenomena. When the Cerebral Cortex interrupts strong emotions, it often sends impulses along tracks that connect the cortex with the hypothalamus. The Hypothalamus then directs impulses by the autonomic nervous system and also releases chemicals that stimulate the interior pituitary gland. The result can be a wide range of changes in body activity. For instance, panic impulses leave the hypothalamus to stimulate the heart to beat faster. Likewise, continued psychological stress can produce long term abnormalities and body function that result in serious illness. These are the so-called psychosomatic disorders and psychosomatic disorders are real.
5. It is associated with feelings of rage and aggression.
6. It controls normal body temperature. Certain cells of the hypothalamus serve as a thermostat.
7. It regulates food intake through two sensors. It contains a thirst center. It is one of the centers that maintains the waking state and sleep patterns. This one gland is the facilitator of something called the Limbic System."
(the site a little too religious oriented for my taste, but interesting about the major gland)
