Hey all,I'm brand new to the forums here. I've been vegan for about five years and vegetarian for about 10 years before that. I'm honestly not sure how long I've been dealing with adrenal fatigue,…Continue

Hey AllI have taken a step back and now all my training has been under that 75% cap. Slow as she goes, but really very enjoyable and not cooked after workouts. This last bout with adrenal knockout…Continue

Comment by Susan Paleniuk on April 20, 2010 at 9:22am: Here is a book my osteopath insisted I read when I found out I was suffering from adrenal burnout: Adrenal Fatigue 'The 2st Century Stress Syndrome' What it is and how you can recover by James L. Wilson N.D., D.C., Ph.D

Comment by Michelle Brezinski on October 4, 2010 at 11:14am: I spent 2 years trying to control my hypoglycemia caused by adrenal fatique. My doctor wanted to put me on antidepressants but I took control and changed my diet , stopped all caffeine and joined a yoga group. It took awhile but it worked...I do have to be careful of falling into hyper-reactive behaviour that put me their in the first place. This subject is huge...would love to start a discussion...I believe many are unknowingly suffering from adrenal burnout...caused by diet, over consumption of stimulants, social situations and historical emotional issues like loss and rejection.

Comment by Ann Richter on October 4, 2010 at 11:20am: Thanks for sharing your story, Michelle. Start a discussion anytime you'd like, girl; that'd be great!

Comment by Ken Wilkens on October 4, 2010 at 5:56pm: Thanks for the note Michelle, like Ann said -- feel free to start a discussion anytime! Agreed, this is a huge topic and a gray area many docs overlook.

Comment by Brad M on November 3, 2010 at 10:50am: My former marriage was causing me to live at 99% stress. Add to it being an entrepreneur and owning my own business, and swimming in debt, one day it hit me. I had adrenal fatigue. A change in diet, and lifestyle really helped me and turned me around. I am able to feel "normal" again.

Comment by Helena Pollard on May 18, 2011 at 7:10am: Hi All, I have recently been diagnosed with Adrenal fatigue by a Naturopath in London. Up until seeing him I had got nowhere with finding out what is wrong with me. I have only been taking supplements etc for three weeks. Just wondering how long it will take to feel 'normal' again. It's very frustrating but I am glad I know what is wrong.
