Judith adrenaline vs cortisol

[Guest guest]

The adrenal medulla releases:

adrenaline (also called epinephrine) and

noradrenaline (also called norepinephrine)

Cortisol is produced by Adrenal cortex,so adrenaline and cortisol are to

different things..Cortisol increases the blood sugar levels and acts as

anti-inflammatory agent in the body..
