In today’s fast-paced, fight or flight world, adrenal fatigue has become quite common. Many of us are always on the go, never taking time to truly relax. So whether we’re stressed about being late for work, or literally running for our lives, our adrenals don’t know the difference. In a crisis situation, we get a boost of adrenaline and cortisol to deal with the immediate challenge, then once safe, the adrenals re-regulate and our bodies return to normal functioning. But sometimes when there is chronic stress and worry, the flight or fight mechanism never gets switched off and we have a constant flow of stress chemicals taxing the body.^*

Sustained, high levels of cortisol can compromise healthy organs and normal, functioning hormone levels can become destabilized. At this point, we can experience adrenal exhaustion/fatigue and the many symptoms associated with it like weight gain, insomnia, tiredness, depression, food cravings, mood swings, and lack of focus.^*
