In our body, there is an endocrine system which consists of several glands. These glands secrete various hormones and release them usually into the bloodstream. Now, our cells have specialized receptors on them. A hormone will attach only if there is a receptor for that hormone, ensuring that just the target cells get stimulated. When the cells get stimulated, specific processes in the cells increase or decrease, thus helping us regulate our heartbeat, blood pressure, body temperature, sleep, etc., thus maintaining our health.
For example, if blood sugar level drops, pancreas will secrete a hormone called glucagon. Glucagon will attach to receptors of liver cells and instruct them to convert stored glycogen into glucose, thus increasing our blood sugar levels. Thus, hormones are super important for our body.
