Do you suffer from insomnia, anxiety attacks, suffer from brain fog, crave salty or sweet food and are feeling exhausted all the time?  While no scientific proof exists to support adrenal fatigue as a true medical condition yet nor are there specific tests for it, not recognizing it does not mean that it does not exist.

The primary trigger for your adrenal glands is stress. Your adrenal glands, which are small organs above your kidneys, respond to stress by releasing hormones like cortisol and adrenaline. Healthy adrenal glands tend to produce the right amount of hormones for each new situation, while overextended adrenal glands may produce too much or too little of these hormones.

According to Anthony William, The Medical Medium, unchecked excess adrenaline can be toxic and corrosive, which may burn away your brain’s neurotransmitter chemicals. One of those neurotransmitters, out of many, is dopamine. All neurotransmitter chemical compounds are vital to your feeling stable and happy, and a lack of them can leave you feeling depressed.

Common symptoms of adrenal fatigue include – but are not limited to,

  • Chronic fatigue
  • Insomnia
  • Brain Fog
  • Depression
  • Abdominal weight gain
  • Salty/ Sweet cravings
  • Energy crashes
  • Anxiety/ panic attacks

While in most situations we cannot prevent the stresses that happen in our lives, it doesn’t mean that we have to live with the results of adrenal fatigue. Some ways that we can deal with it include doing light exercises, meditation, getting more sleep, eating well and taking quality supplements and teas.
