Improve Adrenal Function & Support Adrenal Health

The adrenal glands are two small, triangular-shaped endocrine glands located on top of the kidneys. They work together with the pituitary gland and hypothalamus in the brain to produce a number of different hormones.

The primary function of the adrenals is to assist your body in dealing with all forms of stress.

Adrenal Disease - Problems With the Adrenal Glands

Adrenal gland disorders occur when the body produces either too much or too little of the adrenal hormones.

• Addison's Disease is a rare disorder caused by a deficiency of hydrocortisone and aldosterone. This disease is usually caused by an autoimmune disorder as a result of the immune system attacking the adrenal gland.
• Cushing's Syndrome is caused when the body produces too much cortisol. Secondary Cushing's syndrome may result when steroid hormone drugs (often used to treat inflammatory illnesses such as asthma and rheumatoid arthritis) are taken over prolonged periods or at high doses.
• Adrenal Insufficiency or Adrenal Fatigue is a common problem often caused by prolonged stress and sometimes linked to chronic fatigue and thyroid problems.

Natural Adrenal Supplements & Herbal Adrenal Remedies

Using a combination of treatment options such as conventional medicine, complementary therapy and herbal adrenal remedies can be effective in treating an adrenal gland health disorder.

Herbal adrenal remedies and natural adrenal supplements are gentle, yet effective without the harmful side-effects of conventional medicine and can be used to support adrenal health and help assist the body to fight the stress of modern day living.
