Understanding and Addressing Adrenal FatigueAdrenal fatigue is everywhere in modern culture, but why is that? It comes down to the difference between threats in our ancestral (geneticly adapted) cultures and threats in modern life. Dr. Amy explains the role of the adrenal glands, located like hats on the kidneys, in secreting hormones that regulate our stress response and circadian rhythms. She discusses how modern stressors, unlike ancestral dangers, continuously trigger our fight or flight response without the necessary physical release, leading to what is commonly referred to as adrenal fatigue. Symptoms range from overwhelming fatigue to more severe conditions like Addison's disease in extreme cases. The episode finishes with a mention of Debbie Moon's book, 'Histamine Life Hacks,' recommending it for further reading on histamine issues. Future episodes promise to explore the stages of adrenal fatigue, its impact on health, and potential recovery strategies.00:00 - Intro00:29 - Diving Deep into Adrenal Fatigue01:00 - Understanding Your Adrenals: The Basics03:25 - The Modern World vs. Our Adrenal Health05:39 - Symptoms and Testing for Adrenal Fatigue08:20 - A Quick Book Recommendation: Histamine Life Hacks08:59 - Looking Ahead: Navigating Adrenal FatigueHere's the amazong link (affiliate) for Histamine Lifehacks: https://amzn.to/3QtduV5Thanks for watching this video!
