Adrenal Fatigue

Adrenal Fatigue and Support

During the past 14 years, working in the field of Natural and Integrative healing, I often come across people who just do not understand the value of taking ‘time out’, or taking a moment to REST!! The world we live in just chase relentlessly, do more and more. The time in your life, when you just do not have time for anything….. or so you keep telling yourself.

It is IMPORTANT to invest in yourself, your body, your sanity, MAKE TIME FOR YOU, the body is a precious gift, and we get this one for this lifetime.

Adrenal Fatigue – what is it?

The Adrenal glands (also known as suprarenal glands) are endocrine glands that produce a variety of hormones, including adrenaline and the steroids aldosterone and cortisol. Often these glands get burned out when you are experiencing times of stress and worry. The body gets into a fight or flight mode.
Adrenal Glands are found above the kidneys (about an 5gram gland) with each gland having an outer cortex that produces steroid hormones and an inner medulla.

The adrenal glands contribute to your health even at times when your body isn’t under extreme stress. In fact, they release hormones that are essential for you to live.

How do I know I have Adrenal Fatigue?

Symptoms of adrenal gland disorders are:

• upper body obesity,
• round face and neck,
• and thinning arms and legs.
• Skin problems, such as acne or reddish-blue streaks on the abdomen or underarm area.
• Constant Fatigue.
• High blood pressure.
• Muscle and bone weakness.
• Moodiness.

Adrenal fatigue is one of the symptoms found with the Epstein Barr Virus.
