1. Adrenal Fatigue & Its Symptoms Dr. Peter Dobie

2. Adrenal glands are a vital part of our body and these functions to keep us fresh, focused and provide a support to energy levels of our body all through the day. The adrenal glands might stop working properly, when they have to constantly produce high levels of cortisol. Stress hormones are immediately produced by adrenal glands whenever they get signals from a wide range of stressors each day. Our adrenal glands start working due to various physical and psychological reasons such as emotional stress, stressful work hours, family responsibilities, financial problems, relationship issues, extreme dieting and lack of proper sleep.

3. After the adrenal glands become active, they start generating different hormones like cortisol and adrenaline in small and required amount. This affects our body’s short-term response to stress and minimises the ability of glands to produce and balance other hormones such as testosterone, DHEA and progesterone. It’s important to note that these hormones are considered as quite important for our overall health.
