How The Hypothalamus Works

What the Hypothalamus Gland does and why it's so important to fix it...

The Hypothalamus Gland is located directly below the Thalamus which is at the center of the brain. It controls many automatic functions of the human body.

So this means that it can tell the autonomic nervous system what to do. The Hypothalamus also controls pituitary output by distributing certain chemicals to the pituitary's frontal lobe.

To put it more simply, the Hypothalamus Gland organizes and controls many complex emotions, feelings and moods. It also controls all motivational states including hunger, appetite and food intake, and everything to do with the concept of pleasure including satisfaction, comfort and creative activities.

The neurons in the Hypothalamus produce a number of Hypothalamic Neurotransmitters which relay information and instruction to all parts of the brain and body, directly influencing the Pituitary Gland. This is where the Growth Hormone, Thyroid Hormone Releasing Factor and other Neuropeptides are released via Hypothalamic input.

The Hypothalamus Gland is also involved in the integration of all physiological stimulation and all 5 senses. This of coarse includes taste, smell, sight, sound, and touch, which then translates and assembles them all into one discernible "package" relating all the attributes of an experience.

This is why it is so important to reset and retrain the Hypothalamus in order to succeed on the HCG Diet. Because if you want to lose weight and keep it off, you should fix the part which is causing a lot of the problem.
