Adrenal Support

WHAT IS ADRENAL FATIGUE & HOW DOES IT HAPPEN?  

Adrenal fatigue happens when your adrenal glands cannot adequately meet the demands of stress. 

An illness, a life crisis, or a continuing difficult situation can drain the adrenal resources of even the healthiest person! 

Those under constant stress (whether it be physical, mental or otherwise) are likely to experience some degree of adrenal fatigue.

Most folks will actually look and act normal with adrenal fatigue with no obvious signs of physical illness...yet they live with a general sense of feeling tired, unwell or just have that "blah" feeling.

Folks experiencing adrenal fatigue often use coffee, soda and other stimulants to get going in the morning and to keep themselves going during the day.

I think a vast majority of folks have or will have experienced adrenal fatigue at some time in their life.  In fact, it is said to affect millions of people in the U.S. and around the world!

It's a fact...we live in a stressful world. Not surprisingly, stress is at the heart of many health conditions....from cancer to high blood pressure...it does play a role!

When the body is stressed, your capacity to adapt is reduced, which can wreak havoc on the immune system, nervous system and greatly affect your inflammatory pathways.  

Nourishing your adrenal gland function is essential to combating stress (and that is where our special herbal formulation comes in).

SO...WHAT ARE THE SYMPTOMS OF ADRENAL FATIGUE:?

While none of these features has a direct causal relationship with adrenal dysfunction on its own, a distinct “aggravating pattern” emerges when all these factors are taken into consideration.

Symptoms to look for:

- Blood pressure: High or low blood pressure, low blood pressure can often have the symptom of light headedness that is associated with it.

- Food cravings and weight changes: Abnormal weight gain in the abdomen and thighs. Do you have cravings for salty or sugary foods, sometimes feeling uncontrollable?

- Energy: Unable to stop, always on speed forward, ongoing fatigue, lack of stamina, feeling tired and wired much of the time. Lack of get up and go.

- Emotions and coping ability: Inability to deal with day to day stress, feeling overwhelmed much of the time, struggling to get through the day, driven , very short fuse, anxiety attacks Unable to reframe ones thinking.

- Thinking: Mentally foggy, fuzzy thinking, inability to stay focused on one task, chronic racing thoughts.

- Immune response: Frequent infections, longer time than others to recover from illness or infections or trauma.

- Sleep: Inability to fall asleep or fall asleep well but wake up nightly, Sleep soundly but wake up exhausted.

- Hormones/Libido: Worsening of perimenopausal symptoms, low libido, severe PMS.

Note:  Many other conditions can overlap the above, so know that adrenal imbalance is not always the root cause.

Adrenal imbalance can be a contributing factor in many medical conditions and this formula addresses this issue by nourishing the adrenals.  If you are dealing with any of these conditions, you should be nourishing your adrenals:

- Arthritis
