Adrenal Fatigue Treatment Program

Healing Adrenal Fatigue Naturally

What are the Adrenal Glands & What do they Do?

The adrenal glands sit on top of your kidneys and make several very important hormones in the body.

Cortisol, the main stress hormone, is a major player in regulating blood sugar, metabolism, the immune system, inflammation and much more. Under prolonged stress, the adrenal gland needs to keep making cortisol, often at the expense of the other hormones it also makes.

Stress can be emotional, but it can also be physical, such as fasting and skipping meals, over exercising, infections, chronic illness, family illness.

Progesterone, DHEA, Testosterone and Estrogen are all made in the adrenal glands. During the reproductive years, the ovaries (and the testes in men), are the primary place these hormones are made. As menopause and andropause approach, the sex organs start fading out, and the Adrenal glands are supposed to step in to pick up the slack.

If the Adrenals have been stressed for a long period of time, they may not be able to step in and help make these hormones. This is why some women have a difficult transition through menopause - their adrenals aren't available to help alleviate their symptoms. And men and women both start experiencing a low libido, or low sex drive. Their adrenals aren't able to make testosterone like it once did.

Some Common Symptoms of Adrenal Fatigue

• Cravings for sugar or salt
• Feel dehydrated and thirsty
• Sleep difficulties
• Difficulty relaxing, nervous, anxious or hyperactive
• General exhaustion
• Hormone imbalances
• Low libido
• Weight gain
• Weight loss

Usually, the accumulation of life stressors and menopause/andropause all hit at the same time. This is why adrenal support is so important.
