Adrenal Fatigue
Adrenal fatigue is a controversial term used to describe a collection of nonspecific symptoms , such as fatigue, body aches, nervousness , sleep disturbances, and digestive problems, that are said to be caused by chronic stress and an overworked adrenal gland. However, there is no medical consensus on the existence of adrenal fatigue as a distinct medical condition. The adrenal glands , located on top of the kidneys, produce hormones that help regulate several bodily functions, including the body's response to stress. Adrenal fatigue is not recognized by most mainstream medical organizations , and some experts believe that the symptoms attributed to adrenal fatigue may be caused by other underlying conditions, such as depression or thyroid dysfunction . If you are experiencing symptoms of fatigue or other health concerns , it is important to consult with a qualified healthcare professional who can provide a thorough evaluation and appropriate treatment.
