What many call the 21st century stress syndrome, the adrenal glands help your body respond to the "fight or flight" response. When we are faced with a situation that demand an answer, these glands convert protein to energy and release stored guar, glycogen. They produce hormones such as progesterone, estrogen, steroids, cortisol, and
cortisone, and chemicals such as adrenalin and norepinephrine. This way our bodies have the ammunition to respond rapidly. Our Heart rate, respiration and blood pressure increase allowing for the release of energy.
Our senses become sharpened with adrenal stress response and when the threat is gone and the body returns to normal; the adrenaline levels still are high. This can lead to adrenal fatigue and many experience weight gain, insomnia and fatigue. Some experience depression or mood swings.
"Prolonged stress and unhealthy lifestyle choices affect the body’s energy producing mechanisms adversely, setting up physiological conditions that can lead to adrenal fatigue or metabolic syndrome. Unchecked, metabolic syndrome predisposes a person to diabetes and heart disease. Adrenal fatigue leaves people feeling chronically below par, unable to achieve their potential and limping through life. " - PRLog (Press Release) – Jul 15, 2009 – James L.
