Adrenal Fatigue
If you feel exhausted, there's a good chance that your adrenal glands are, too. Adrenal glands are small glands located on the upper pole of each kidney. There are two main areas of the adrenals. The cortex produces sex hormones, stress hormones and other hormones responsible for water & sugar balance. The medulla produces the stress hormones adrenaline and nor adrenaline. Diseases of the adrenal gland are Addison's disease and Cushing's syndrome. Addison's disease occurs when the body attacks the adrenal gland and may be concurrent with other autoimmune disorders.
Signs of low adrenal function can be similar to signs of being "stressed out" such as lethargy, dizziness, headaches, memory problems, food cravings and blood sugar imbalances. As the dysfunction gets more serious fainting, diarrhea, depression, moodiness, feeling cold, discolouration of the skin, swelling and loss of body hair can occur.
The most important way to avoid adrenal burnout is to deal with stress in a healthy way. Regular exercise both stimulates the adrenal glands and relieves stress.
Nutritional supplements can also help with adrenal exhaustion - vitamins C and B-5 (pantothenic acid) are needed by the adrenal glands to produce optimum levels of epinehphrine, an energy boosting, stress busting hormone. The herb licorice contains adrenal like hormones which can give someone with low adrenal function a big increase in energy. Adrenal gland extract (New Zealand source) contains proteins that can help optimize your adrenal functioning in the same way that thyroid extracts can help that gland.

Aswagandha is widely used in Ayurvedic medicine, the medical system of India. It is used primarily as a general tonic to increase energy and to improve overall health and longevity. Studies have proven the powerful anti-stress effects as well as the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, anti-tumor properties as well as the immune modulating properties. Ashwagandha has been shown to improve sexual performance, have calming effects on the central nervous system, and overall rejuvenating effects.

Note from Dr. Karen Jensen
* What are Adaptogens?
Stress adaptation is the body's ability to respond to a stressor with little or no prolonged stress-hormone reaction. Adaptogenic herbs enhance the ability of the body to resist the stressors and are called the 'great equalizers'. Adaptogens exert a normalizing influence on the body, neither over-stimulating nor inhibiting normal body function, but providing a generalized tonifying effect.
"To understand the mechanism of stress gives physicians a new approach to treatment of illness but it can also give us all a new way of life, a new philosophy to guide our actions in conformity with natural laws."
Hans Selye, MD
