Adrenal - HPA axis function

Adrenal glands are just more than producing adrenaline in your body. This gland is part of an intricate system called the hypothalamic pituitary adrenal axis which lies in the brain. It is the computer part of the brain that helps us determine how we will manage stress, whether it is good or bad, short-term or long-term. We are constantly surrounded by stress and how we adapt to it varies from one person to the next. Over time our response to stress can sub-come to dysfunction, and leads up to a path of chronic illness. Symptoms of anxiety, insomnia, hives and skin rashes can be signs that your HPA axis needs help. If you suffer from the following symptoms, naturopathic treatment can be a therapy to consider;

  • Insomnia/difficulty getting up in the morning

  • Fatigue/brain fog(especially during the morning and mid-afternoon)

  • Anxiety

  • Hives

  • Thyroid dysfunction.

  • Blood pressure problems

  • Lowered immune system.

  • Blood sugar problems.
