Stress and our Adrenals by Celeste Brinson, MSc
When we experience stress (even the good kind!) the body has a physiological reaction. If there are periods of high stress, trauma, or lengthy periods of distress, the adrenal glands can't keep up and they become fatigued.
People in Adrenal Fatigue will often alter their lifestyles and take an adrenal supplement to rebuild. This is helpful because adrenals need support during periods of stress, and in return, you get a ton of energy from balancing hormones and adrenaline.
Our favorite adrenal support is Premiere Research's Adrenal Complex. This complex also includes supportive herbs like Cordyceps, Dandelion, and Skullcap. It can be taken daily and is safe for use in children over 4. Adrenal Fatigue has been linked to many childhood disease including ADHD and "failure to thrive".
