Hypoadrenia

WHAT IS HYPOADRENIA?

Hypoadrenia means low functioning adrenal glands, a malady which expresses itself in a myriad of symptoms that are interrelated with hormone issues and blood sugar problems (hypoglycemia) that often overlap. In fact there is a very similar malady, Adrenal Fatigue that has many of the same essential symptoms and treatments as Hypoadrenia, but with slightly different protocols to address several specific symptoms that are different.

Once you have Hypoadrenia and the cycle continues, it’s difficult to manage. Thankfully we have great supplemental support for this (below)!  Getting consistent sleep to balance your natural hydrocortisone is key to getting better.

 

Are there common symptoms of Hypoadrenia?

Most notable symptoms of Hypoadrenia include:

• A vicious cycle of chronic fatigue oscillations – when you are supposed to be sleeping you are overexcited & awake, when  you are supposed to be awake in a functioning state you are instead tired/sleepy and weak.
• Irritability, nervousness, anxiety, excessive worrying, indecisiveness, weepiness, hysteria
• Sensitivity to cold, cold hands and feet
• Weakness, light-headedness, vertigo
• Low blood pressure, poor circulation & thus heart palpitations
• Loss of appetite
• Craving for primarily salt & sometimes sweets
• Dry skin, sparse hair
• Slouching posture
• Specific For Women: PMS, menstrual irregularities, miscarriage, infertility, ovarian dysfunction
• Specific For Men: low sperm count, enlarged breasts

WHAT IS THE ROOT CAUSE OF HYPOADRENIA?

Being part of the endocrine system, the adrenal glands work in conjunction with the thyroid, pituitary, and hypothalamus glands. If any one of these glands begins to malfunction, the effects often ripple through other endocrine glands (and eventually the whole body), making it difficult to tell which one is actually the true source of the problem.  So remember to treat the entire HPA (Hypothalamus Pituitary Adrenal) axis & thyroid when healing adrenal problems.  The protocol you will find below will rebuild your entire hormonal system and thus your whole body.  And remember with every protocol you will find on this website we recommend you add the General Daily Health Pack which includes a whole food Multivitamin: Catalyn, Trace Minerals B12 & Tuna Omega-3 which you should have as a basis of nutrition everyday.

For people who have experienced adrenal problems it’s difficult to describe in words.  I think all adrenal patients would conclude they would do anything to get better.  Many adrenal patients, even those on the verge of fatal outcomes, have recovered beautifully from using the supplement, diet & exercise advice you will find here.  Along with the supplements, it’s important to get consistent sleep, to reduce stress & simplify your life (in whatever means necessary, this is your life we’re talking about), low intensity exercise (like walking or yoga or swimming, etc), eliminate or at least reduce refined sugar & carbohydrates in your diet.

If you don’t feel symptoms of anxiety, but are otherwise battling chronic fatigue, then you should check out our protocol for Addison’s Disease or Adrenal Exhaustion here.

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING BULLETS BEFORE USING THIS PROTOCOL

• The protocol above is designed to address your issues at the foundational level, and not to treat disease. This means, in our opinion, most of our health problems, short of accident or trauma, are of a dietary nutritional deficiency. The listed protocol or supplement provides your body with essential micro and macronut­­­­rients to help and assist normal nutritional balance.
• Daily dosage are in ( ) parenthesis for most protocols; for example (6) means take 6 per day, but spread it out by taking half in the morning and half in the evening. Some protocols will have more specific instructions to follow.
• Medi-Herb products, shown in italics, often speed healing response and should be considered for most protocols unless contraindicated.
• We recommend adding the General Health Daily Fundamentals pack to each protocol. This adds in the critical foundational nutrition each protocol needs. It contains Catalyn––an entirely whole-food and glandular broad-spectrum multivitamin, Trace Minerals-B12, and Tuna Omega-3 pearls for your DHA and EPA omega 3 fatty acids daily requirements.
• Spacing out the daily doses throughout the day improves absorption and is strongly recommended.
• Most supplements should be taken with food except for PMG’s, most calcium products, Gastrex, Chlorophyll Complex™, Okra Pepsin E3, Cholocol II and Zymex II. Also, most herbs work more efficiently if taken away from food.
• Be advised that these nutritional and herbal products are not intended as a primary therapy for any disease, but rather to provide nutritional and herbal support to help normalize body physiology and repair.
