“Adrenal fatigue” refers to the idea that when chronic stress overloads your adrenal glands, it can cause all sorts of common symptoms like fatigue, brain fog and weight gain. The truth is, we have no scientific proof that stress can fatigue your adrenal glands.
What’s the problem with taking supplements for “adrenal fatigue?”
Relying on supplements can delay the diagnosis of issues such as thyroid disease, depression, anxiety or sleep apnea.
While fatigue, weight gain and anxiety aren’t reasons to immediately check your cortisol level, they are reasons to have a chat with your doctor.
Supplements aren’t regulated by the FDA and may not be safe for children. Check with your pediatrician before giving your child a supplement. https://www.chop.edu/pediatric-health-chat/adrenal-fatigue
