Adrenal fatigue is a much more common problem than you might think. If you’ve been feeling extremely tired lately, you could have adrenal fatigue syndrome, which is also called adrenal insufficiency.
This affliction occurs because of the adrenal gland malfunctioning. About 80% of the world’s population is thought to experience it at some point. Adrenal fatigue can hinder you when you're doing housework or at your job, however, the good news is that it’s easy to overcome. The most important step is to have adrenal fatigue diagnosed, and that starts with acknowledging any symptoms your may have.
The Most Common Signs
One of the biggest red flags for adrenal fatigue is getting a good night’s sleep and waking up more tired than when you went to bed. This tends to be the first thing that people with adrenal fatigue notice about themselves. If it seems to be occurring to you repeatedly, then you definitely shouldn’t overlook it.
The second most prevalent symptom of adrenal fatigue is anxiety. Feeling extremely overwhelmed by everything going on around you can be put down to adrenal fatigue or what’s known as “burnout syndrome”, which you get from overwork and not resting enough.
Anxiety caused by adrenal fatigue is usually accompanied by poor memory and an inability to focus or concentrate.
If you’re seemingly unable to lose weight, it might also indicate that your adrenal gland isn’t working properly. This is especially true if you’ve lowered your calorie intake and are working out regularly.
How to Overcome It
If you’re experiencing the symptoms outlined above, the first thing you need to do is cut all the stimulants and irritants out of your diet, with specific reference to caffeine and sugar.
Next, you need to increase your magnesium and vitamin B complex intake, as these two essential nutrients will stimulate your adrenal glands and balance your blood sugar levels.
In addition to the nutrients above, you should also increase your daily intake of healthy amino acids, such as Omega 3 and Omega 6. You can do this by adding olive oil to your salads – it’s a great source of amino acids. Try combining extra virgin olive oil with dark, leafy greens such as chard, kale or spinach. You can also try seaweed, as it is particularly rich in minerals.
Also consider taking natural dietary supplements containing adaptogenic herbal extracts, roots and natural plants such as ginseng, rhodiola, ashwagandha and holy basil. Note that there’s only so much that these supplements can do, so take them in conjunction with B vitamins, selenium and vitamin D.
Vitamin D helps relieve stress, allowing you to get a better night’s sleep. It works best in combination with selenium and magnesium, which improve adrenal gland function.
If your day-to-day life is stressful, see what you can do to reduce it. Try yoga, breathing exercises, melotherapy or aromatherapy.
Exercise is always good for keep stress levels down – jogging, swimming, hiking or even walking for half an hour each day can help you keep them manageable.
Remember to do the following:
Get rid of caffeine
• Eat more fruit and vegetables
• Stay hydrated
• Cut down on sugar and empty calories
• Remove fast food from your diet
• Exercise to keep stress levels down.
Live by these rules and you’ll remain healthy, happy and energetic for many years to come!
