Help For Your Adrenal Stress Handlers!

Dear Readers,

The stress of modern life, as well as infections, poor sleep and poor nutrition all take a toll on our stress handler gland (the Adrenal Gland). Inadequate adrenal function results not only in fatigue, anxiety and crashing with stress, but also in symptoms of low blood sugar (irritable when hungry). Adrenal support is easy and can leave you feeling much healthier, stronger and in control of your life.

In addition to adrenal exhaustion, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome(CFS) and Fibromyalgia (FMS) are associated with low adrenal function caused by suppression of the control centers in the brain. An excellent recent research review by my friend and colleague Kent Holtorf MD again documents both the need for adrenal support in CFS/FMS and its effectiveness and safety.

If you get irritable when hungry, crash with stress, have low blood pressure/dizziness on standing, OR recurrent sore throats and respiratory infections, this article can give you back your life!
