Adrenal Function

Nutritional and botanical support for the individual experiencing signs and symptoms of stress largely involves supporting the adrenal glands. Long-term stress and corticosteroids cause the adrenal glands to shrink and become dysfunctional, aggravating the stress symptoms anxiety, depression and chronic fatigue.

An abnormal adrenal response, either deficient or excessive hormone release, significantly alters an individual's response to stress. Often the adrenal glands become "exhausted" as a result of constant demands put upon them. An individual with adrenal exhaustion usually suffers from chronic fatigue and may complain of feeling "stressed out" or chronically anxious. He/she typically has a reduced resistance to allergies and infections.
