What is Adrenal Fatigue?
Adrenal Fatigue results from a malfunction of the adrenal glands and the pituitary-hypothalamic-adrenal axis. Even when we encounter stress, the hypothalamus still sends signals to the pituitary gland, which then sends signals to the adrenal glands. However, when the message reaches the adrenal glands, nothing happens. The adrenal glands are so exhausted that they cannot produce enough hormones.
