27 - How Jay Beat Adrenal Fatigue and Lost 50 Pounds


Listen Later

Adrenal fatigue is a term applied to a collection of nonspecific symptoms, such as body aches, fatigue, nervousness, sleep disturbances and digestive problems. The term often shows up in popular health books and on alternative medicine websites, but it isn't an accepted medical diagnosis.
Your adrenal glands produce a variety of hormones that are essential to life. The medical term adrenal insufficiency (Addison's disease) refers to inadequate production of one or more of these hormones as a result of an underlying disease.
Signs and symptoms of adrenal insufficiency may include:
•Fatigue
•Body aches
•Unexplained weight loss
•Low blood pressure
•Lightheadedness
•Loss of body hair
•Skin discoloration (hyperpigmentation)
From Mayo Clinic

On today’s episode my close friend, Fitness Trainer, Owner of Frost Marks Films and Over 40 Alpha Flex Marks get deep and candid about how he struggles with Adrenal Fatigue (Addison’s disease).

He went from being lean and ripped at 170 pounds to 220 pounds overweight in just 6 months.

Now Flex is 44 years old and his 6-year battle with adrenal fatigue has transformed his body to 165 pounds, ripped and in best shape of his life.

Flex talks about how he got adrenal fatigue in the first place, the struggles he faces and how he regained his health and body using mindset, recovery, nutrition, workouts and determination to get his body and health back!

This is an amazing story for anyone battling with health issues, obesity, overweight or needed a kick in the butt to start losing weight.
