What should I do if I have adrenal fatigue?

The adrenal glands help the body adapt to stress, but stress accumulates from birth, making it crucial to manage. The adrenals have an outer glandular layer and an inner nerve tissue layer, involved in the fight-or-flight response. The pituitary gland controls the adrenals via feedback circuits. Key nutrients for adrenal fatigue remedies include:

• Vitamin B1: Stress depletes B1. Nutritional yeast is a great source, or try an adrenal formula.

• Potassium: Calms the body. Blood tests don't show true levels since most potassium is inside cells. Fresh vegetables, especially avocados, are excellent sources. An electrolyte powder can also help. Light exercise, particularly walking, is also beneficial for adrenal fatig
