my book says aldosteronestudentI believe that there are 3 that are important as outlined below.A textbook that I used to teach from used this to help students remember- Salt Sugar Sex1. Testosterone- sex2. Aldosterone-salt3. Cortisol-sugarNow, Cortisol aka glucocorticoids get their name because their main function is to raise the blood sugar level in the body. They also have anti-inflammatory properties so they are used in rheumatoid arthritis and other inflammed conditions. They are better known to us as steroids.Aldosterone helps maintain blood pressure levels via the kidneys. This helps the kidneys to reabsorb sodium in order to maintain the blood pressure. Remember whereever water goes so does sodium! Aldosterone is triggered when there is a drop in sodium levels in the body.Testosterone assists in the development of sexual organs in mostly males but also females too.Hope this helpsA RN in NJSource:Taught Anatomy for over 2 years to nursing studentsMy head
