Are you tired, frustrated and burnt out? Each year millions of Americans face adrenal fatigue. Triggered from our fight or flight complex, this challenging health concern needs to be addressed more often. I've had it and it completely sucks and takes commitment, rest and vitamin and herbal supplementation to reverse itself.
12 Clues and Ways to tell if you have Adrenal Fatigue:
1. Have trouble waking in the morning; despite plenty of sleep?
2. Catch colds or infections easily and often?
3. Gaining weight around your middle?
4. Crave sweets or salty foods?
5. Have dark circles under your eyes?
6. Often feel dizzy, faint; like you haven't woken up or are in a dream?
7. Nails are brittle and weak, hair is dry and thinning and skin appears to be aging?
8. Body temperature is off balance?
9. Drink more than 1 8oz of caffeinated products?
10. Feel dizzy or lightheaded after standing or getting up from a lying position?
11. Feel run down, drained; emotionally and physically exhausted?
12. Overwhelmed or stressed by work, family & other responsibilities?
Take an online adrenal fatigue questionnaire to learn more from www.adrenalfatigue.com a great source of information.
This often debilitating syndrome can be reversed through a vitamin rich diet and supplementation that addresses the adrenal glands.

Combating Workplace Stress and Fatigue through Diet, Exercise and Meditation
Ever feel like your body is on constant "fight or flight" mode? With our culture of technology overload, road rage and over scheduled and double booked lives it is no wonder our bodies are feeling run down, burnt out and just plain tired.
Essentially what you deal with on a daily basis is a symptom called adrenal burn out. Is it severe? That depends. Is it chronic? More often, yes. From the time your alarm wakes you up to the nightly commute back to your home; your body is internalizing its surroundings and produces adrenaline to combat the stressors you are faced with daily.
Our world now does not allow us nor does it have time for us to slow down and relax from a very stressful situation. You body is registered to read that deadline or sales pitch as a threat to your survival and releases hormones for you to either run or fight.
So now what? How can you combat the high level of Adrenaline that pumps through your body?
There are a lot of great supplements and tonics that are effective at decreasing these levels as well as target and strengthen the endocrine system (the glands most impacted by your stress).
What you need are adaptogens in your daily diet/supplement regime.
To stay healthy, slender, happy, energized and stress-free here are a few exercises, food choices, supplements, tonics and teas I use daily. These items help my body cool down from all these stressful, adrenaline releasing events:
5 minute DEEP Yoga breaths--breathing in (through the nose) for 7 counts and exhail for 10 counts.
Turkey, cheese, chocolate and bananas are great items to consume for lunch and dinner. Tryptophan helps increase your seratonin levels (your happy hormones)is produced from these products and serve as a release to the anxiety and stress you are dealing with daily.
Siberian Ginseng
Rhodiola
Sport Tea
Adrenal Support Tonic (Elethuro, Licorice Root, oat "milky" seed, Sarsparilla root, Prickly Ash Bark)
Within about 4 days you will be feeling the effects of boosting and feeding your adrenals. Treat them right and they will inturn keep you healthy, youthful and less stressed.
