The endocrine system, comprised of a number of hormone-secreting glands, is vital to the functioning of the human body. In addition to its role in reproductive activity, the endocrine system regulates tissue growth, responses to injury and stress, and helps maintain necessary levels of chemicals throughout the body. This detailed volume carefully examines the major glands of the endocrine system as well as the consequences of its dysfunction and disorder.

Here is a visual representation and location of each endocrine gland in the body with an explanation of their inter-relationships to one another. The glands are listed as to location, groups of participation, and their functions and dysfunctions. Also included are suggestions on what is necessary to improve the health of each gland.This chart is easy to read being 22 x 17 inches large and detailed in two-color.

There is great concern regarding the reproductive and health hazards of endocrine disruptors. Research indicates that men are experiencing declining fertility and an increased incidence of prostate cancer, while women are dealing with increased infertility, early menopause, and breast cancer. As new research reveals the previously unknown risks of these endocrine disruptors, it is imperative to update our knowledge of these controversial chemicals.Endocrine Disruptors: Effects on Male and Female Reproductive Systems, Second Edition examines the reproductive and health hazards of endocrine-disrupting environmental chemicals from epidemiology to etiology, concluding with future directions. Divided into two sections, the first part of the book describes the effects of environmental toxicants on the female reproductive system, with an emphasis on the effects and mechanisms of their action on sex differentiation during development, fertility, and breast cancer. The second part addresses the effects of endocrine disruption on the male reproductive system, focusing on male fertility and the development of benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) and prostate cancer.Leading authorities contribute expert analyses and up-to-date information on a topic that has become a major concern among the scientific community and the general public. This second edition supplies the most current, critical knowledge on the real risks that endocrine disruptors pose to the population.

The field of endocrine disruption or endocrine active compounds (EACs), which is just emerging and still controversial, is comprehensively covered by leading experts in Volume 3, Subvolumes L (Part I) and M (the present volume, Part II). The major classes of endocrine active chemicals are discussed, as well as methods for their detection and their association with health disturbances in humans and wildlife. The etiology of several of the human diseases associated with endocrine disruptors, e.g. breast and prostate cancer, decreased fertility and malformations, is still poorly understood, and the current state of knowledge is presented. Since hormonally active agents appear to have the potential of both adverse and beneficial effects, the evidence of health benefits associated with endocrine active compounds in humans is also presented. Basic chapters on the mode of action of EACs and on the etiology of the associated diseases facilitate the understanding of this complex subject for non-medical readers.

“Endocrine-Immune Mechanisms in Animals and Human Health Implications”, looks at the relationship of the hormone regulation of the immune system. His collection of articles and writings that have appeared in numerous publications explains the relationship between the endocrine and immune systems. He explains to readers how this endocrine-immune imbalance can be the cause of allergies, auto-immunity and cancer in animals and how these imbalances also apply to humans. By explaining this delicate imbalance, Plechner seeks to help his fellow health care professionals to identify the causes of certain diseases as opposed to only treating the effects of these diseases which cause specific clinical signs and symptoms. He states that there may be a reason to believe that his treatment in animals can be successful for treatment in humans also. “Over the years, I have discovered new ways to diagnose and treat the cause of many diseases and illnesses that cripple the quality of life for a patient,” Plechner says. “It all stems from a hormone imbalance that leads to the disruption of the immune system”. Written for fellow practitioners, biomedical researchers and pet owners, Dr. Plechner believes that readers will end this book with a new perspective on many illnesses like allergy, auto-immunity and cancer that occur in animals and in people. He hopes his research will inspire health care professionals to delve further into medical research in regards to not only treating the medical effects in animals and humans, but at the same time, identify the cause of the disease. “My hope,” says the author, “is that my research will help animals and people live a better life free from disease.”
