Adrenal fatigue is a condition when the adrenal glands are struggling to manage stress and an extremely busy schedule and causes feelings of tiredness, dullness, and a burnout.
Your doctor won’t diagnose this condition, but we will reveal its symptoms and things you should change in order to treat them.
In case one surpasses the 4 stages of adrenal fatigue, an adrenal insufficiency might appear, which can be medically diagnosed. Therefore, make sure you treat the symptoms on time and avoid even more aggravated issues.
Stress leads to increased cortisol levels and weakened bodily functions, as the adrenals cannot cope with the burden.
The following 7 signs indicate that you suffer from adrenal fatigue:
Poor Digestion
Stress does not allow the body to digest the food properly and inhibits the absorption of nutrients. In this case, the metabolism and digestion are poor, and you might experience bloating, indigestion, constipation, diarrhea, and weight gain.
You should eat a healthy diet, drink sufficient amounts of water, take probiotics and minerals regularly, and take the time to savor your meals.
Insomnia
Every night, you should sleep for at least 8 hours without interruptions, in order to help the body to reset, recharge, and recover. This will make you wake up fresh and energized.
Moreover, never give up sleep for more work, as it will throw you off balance and make you struggle to fall asleep.
Also, try to be in bed by 10:30 pm, even if you can’t fall asleep, stay in the dark to help the body release melatonin, the sleeping hormone. Also, warm baths, relaxation techniques, and yoga calm the body and mind and help you fall asleep.
Anxiety or Depression
The pressure of deadlines and a busy schedule might lead to various complications, changes of mood, and a poor cognitive function. Anxiety and depression are directly linked to stress, so make sure you find some way to control it and reduce it in order to preserve your health.
4. Stiffness and pain
When the body is not recharged due to stress, you might suffer from stiffness and pain, as well as stress in the back, jaw, and neck. Try to change the sleeping habits, and practice stretching exercises and yoga.
Furthermore, warm baths offer potent anti-inflammatory effects – as the natural magnesium alleviates the muscles and the crystal blend detoxes and balances the body.
5. Feeling Overwhelmed By Life
Sometimes, things definitely can be easier and better, but you should not apply too much pressure on yourself. You should always reserve a time to dedicate to yourself, and do not just work to achieve the goals, regardless of the efforts and time needed.
Therefore, add some self-care into your daily routines, and make sure you give your body a chance to recover and function properly.
6. Exhaustion After Working Out
Exercise should provide body energy, but physical stress might also lead to adrenal fatigue, as it can have negative effects on the body. You sometimes need to try some gentle exercise, walking, yoga.
Yet, if you need to lose weight, make sure you are aware of the fact that 80% of the effects will come from proper nutrition.
7. Wacky hormones
The thyroid gland can be damaged in stage two of adrenal fatigue, and you might start experiencing signs of a hypothyroid (poor circulation, fatigue, weight gain, dry hair, and skin).
In the case of imbalance of the adrenals and the stress levels, the hormone precursor material will be redirected for use in cortisol production.
Prolonged periods of stress might increase the PMS symptoms or lead to occasional loss of the cycle. Therefore, make sure you eat healthy foods, drink enough water, sleep enough, avoid caffeine, and use adaptogenic herbs.
