Stress from modern life, chronic illness or endocrine imbalance can lead to adrenal fatigue. Adrenals are sensitive to stress just as the thyroid gland is, so if the thyroid is out of balance, it’s likely the adrenals are also. If you only support the thyroid and the adrenals are out of balance, it will be an uphill battle to resolve your symptoms. Fortunately, adaptogenic herbs can be very helpful. There isn’t a specific test for this condition, but if you have several of these symptoms, your adrenals may benefit from some support.
