Andrenochrome or Pineal Gland Extract? Andrenochrome is making zero sense. Is it  code for Pineal Extract? This makes lots of sense. DMT is the most powerful tripping drug widely known.  So Pineal Gland could be used as a drug. Next up magical healing. Look at what all the pineal gland can do. Anti aging, anit tumor, helps motor function, boost immune system. 10 Functions and roles of the pineal gland 9 hormone roles of the pineal gland in the body As the master endocrine gland, the pineal gland oversees nearly every bodily process. Growth is known to happen during sleep. Melatonin released by the pineal gland regulates growth hormone release. The pineal gland influences the hypothalamus that signals growth hormone from the pituitary. Oral melatonin can increase growth hormone levels. (1) As part of the circadian rhythm, body temperatures drop exactly when melatonin levels peak. The pineal gland directs the pattern of body temperature associated with daytime height in body temperature. When melatonin is high, body temperature is at its lowest for sleep. (2) Sleep cycles associate with blood pressure. Circadian rhythm works with the heart rate and the cardiovascular system. Melatonin helps the body to regulate blood pressure levels. Studies have shown that high pressure or hypertension can be reduced with daily oral melatonin. (3) Water balance is regulated by antidiuretic hormone (ADH) or vasopressin. It is released from the pituitary gland. ADH regulates osmotic pressure of body fluids by causing the kidneys to increase water reabsorption. It’s released from the hypothalamus and stored in the posterior pituitary gland. When secreted into the body it signals the kidneys to store water via concentration of salts in urine. In rat studies, pinealectomy shows the levels of ADH or vasopressin were elevated (4). Melatonin decrease these levels, showing the pineal effect on water balance in the body. Melatonin binds to receptors in the pancreas to suppress insulin secretion. It’s thought the main reason is to keep blood glucose levels steady during an overnight fast (sleep). Insulin plays a role in carbohydrate metabolism, weight gain, and insulin resistance is the mechanism in type-II diabetes. (5). Diabetes insipidus has been noted to occur with pineal tumors. Melatonin is also known to reduce levels of leptin, the hormone that shifts the body to store fat. People who eat diet’s high in simple sugars and carbohydrates may affect their melatonin levels. Insulin allows clearance of all amino acids except one, tryptophan. The pineal gland affects the release of the sex hormones. It’s well known that in animal systems that melatonin plays a role in reproduction. The anterior pituitary gland releases two hormones. In males, these stimulate the testes to release testosterone. In females the ovaries to release estrogen. Studies have shown that in blind women, menstrual cycles begin earlier. In men, melatonin can influence testosterone release. Lack of light can create fertility problems in both men and women. (6) The pineal gland regulates the immune response. As the head of the neuroendocrine system, it oversees two-way crosstalk with the immune system. As the immune system detects foreign threats in the body, it relays it to the pineal gland. The pineal gland then directs a response to the environmental toxin. It’s a language that works via melatonin as well as a host of neurotransmitters and hormones. These can produce antibodies, natural killer cells, and mitogens with the ability to kill pathogens. In cancer and tumors, the pineal gland receives the message of its presence. Melatonin activates the immune defense process for tumor-inhibitory activity. (7) Oxidative stress is one of the main mechanisms of aging. Melatonin is also a powerful anti-oxidant. Its strength against oxidation is noted against better-known anti-oxidants. Melatonin has been found to possess 200% more antioxidant power than vitamin E. Melatonin has also been found to be superior to glutathione as well as vitamins C and E in reducing oxidative damage. (8) Mood disorders such as depression and anxiety may have common cause in melatonin receptor dysfunction.  The balance of neurotransmitters serotonin and dopamine is known to have a role in mental health. The pineal gland mediates these hormones and their effect on mood in the brain. Serotonin is converted to melatonin in the pineal gland depending on the light-dark cycle. Disruption in the circadian rhythm is associated with depression and anxiety symptoms. Dopamine levels are thought to be related to melatonin. (9) Part III: The pineal gland and DMT Despite the progress of the last 20 years in understanding the function of the pineal gland, there are still big unknowns. One remaining mysterious element is the role of DMT. Researchers are only beginning to understand the role of the neurotransmitter and its effect on the brain and body. DMT (N, N-dimethyltryptamine) has a known psychedelic effect on people who take it. There is also increasing evidence that DMT is produced in the pineal gland. Much research is required, however, the role of the pineal gland as the third eye seems to be linked to DMT in the brain. http://humanoriginproject.com/function-of-the-pineal-gland/
