TechnoratiNext we need to nourish and strengthen our adrenal glands. Stress depletes the body of specific nutrients, so we need to add vitamin C, B and zinc to our diet. A typical multivitamin will have these nutrients, but not in the quantity the body may need for the amount of stress you are under.
We also need to support our adrenal glands with specific “adaptogenic” herbs such as ashwaghandee, rhodiola, cordyceps, and ginseng. These herbs help balance out the adrenal glands. It they are too active – they can bring them back down. If they are too low – they can help stimulate them. These adaptogenic herbs are also known to help resynchronize the whole brain-hormone connection.
Don’t expect to see big or even moderate results if you only want to swallow a handful of supplements without making some changes in your life. Overcoming adrenal fatigue is a process. There is not a magic pill, nor is there a drug to address the cause. But if you want to address the cause of your problem, not the symptoms, overcome many of the health issues you are facing – it can be done, and it can all be done naturally.
