Adrenal Fatigue Finally Getting the Attention It Deserves

At LexiLife, we have been treating adrenal fatigue with great results. As a matter of fact, adrenal fatigue patients are some of the most rewarding patients treated, and some of our best referral patients. Their gratitude is expressed because initially, they are in very poor condition with virtually no energy. They often have difficulty sleeping or sleep 10-12 hours per day and wake up tired.  They complain of weight loss or gain, no sex drive and virtually no interest in anything.  After treatment, they feel they feel they have new life.  Adrenal fatigue is caused by stress, which in-turn alters a person’s cortisol levels, a very powerful hormone produced by the adrenal glands.  If a patient is under stress for extended periods of time, the adrenal glands cannot keep pace and cortisol levels fall and the patient “crashes.” This is also known as burnout.

Recently, adrenal fatigue has started to get more media attention. An article in the December ‘09  issue of Vogue Magazine discusses adrenal fatigue and treatments.  Unfortunately, there are still medical people that refuse to acknowledge that adrenal fatigue is real. The Vogue article is attached below.  If you can relate to the article,  or if you have some of the symptoms described, give us a call. Adrenal fatigue is not a condition to ignore.
