Aldosterone is the only hormone produced by the adrenal cortex that regulates salt and water balance by acting on the kidneys to increase sodium reabsorption and potassium excretion, leading to an increase in blood volume and blood pressure. Glucagon is produced by the pancreas and regulates glucose metabolism, cortisol is a stress hormone that has many functions in the body, and ADH is a hormone produced by the pituitary gland that regulates water balance.
