Guest guest Posted February 5, 2011 Report Share Posted February 5, 2011 From the Mayo Clinic Question Adrenal fatigue: What causes it? Is there such a thing as adrenal fatigue? Answer from Todd B. Nippoldt, M.D. 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 Web sites, 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, " or '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 include fatigue, body aches, unexplained weight loss, low blood pressure, lightheadedness and loss of body hair. Adrenal insufficiency can be diagnosed by blood tests and special stimulation tests that show inadequate levels of adrenal hormones. Proponents of the adrenal fatigue diagnosis claim this is a mild form of adrenal insufficiency caused by chronic stress. The unproven theory behind adrenal fatigue is that your adrenal glands are unable to keep pace with the demands of perpetual fight-or-flight arousal. As a result, they can't produce quite enough of the hormones you need to feel good. Existing blood tests, according to this theory, aren't sensitive enough to detect such a small decline in adrenal function — but your body is. That's why you feel tired, weak and depressed. It's frustrating to have persistent symptoms your doctor can't readily explain. But accepting a medically unrecognized diagnosis from an unqualified practitioner could be worse. Unproven remedies for so-called " adrenal fatigue " may leave you feeling sicker, while the real cause — such as depression or fibromyalgia — continues to take its toll. > > > > > > > > Stress..........Lack of sleep.........Altered fatty acid metabolites (visceral fat) --- Metabolic Syndrome ---- Increased Insulin* > > > > Adrenals * ............Kidneys.remain insulin sensitive ............Increased aldosterone......Sodium retention** > > > > > > * Paradoxical hyperaldosteronemia and sodium retention in the face of > > excess sodium intake Hypertension 2004;43:358-563. > > > > **Epoxy-keto derivative of linoleic acid stimulates aldosterone secretion.

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2011 Report Share Posted February 5, 2011 Here is something you need to look at. do your own research to see how true it is. First this Thyroid Health Site Colleen Forgus BellaOnline's Thyroid Health Editor Note that The Foreward for the book was written by Dr. V. MD. I did a search for this Dr found something very intresing about him. Review-Dr. 's " Adrenal Fatigue " Guest Author - Jim Lowrance I bought this wonderful book on the subject of adrenal fatigue entitled; " Adrenal Fatigue The 21st Century Stress Syndrome " , about two years ago, at a Hastings book store. It was very interesting and hard to put down, so I finished it within a couple of days despite the fact it contains over 300 pages of reading. This book is authored by Dr. L. , who has a PhD in Human Nutrition, having also completed studies in immunology, microbiology, pharmacology and toxicology. He also has master's degrees in bio-nutrition and psychology and is a Doctor of Chiropractic and Naturopathic Medicine. The Foreward for the book was written by Dr. V. MD, who cites the fact that there are other MDs who have dedicated time to medical research and helping to inform the medical community about this very real medical condition, including Tintera MD and Jeffries MD. These facts are contrasted by the mentions by Dr. , in which he points out the fact in this book, that many doctors still do not recognize adrenal fatigue and therefore will not test patients for it or recommend treatments. This is changing slowly however, with more doctors beginning to recognize this syndrome as a true illness that can seriously affect the quality-of-life of those who experience it. My own doctor for example, who is a Board Certified Family Practitioner, fully recognizes this stress syndrome and actually provides her patients who suffer adrenal fatigue, with sheets that outline some of the treatments recommended by Dr. in this book. Information Dr. V. MD From Quackwatch AQA's president and cofounder was V. , M.D., a Harvard graduate who obtained his medical degree at the University of Michigan and began practicing " nutritional medicine " in 1973 at his Tahoma Clinic in Kent, Washington, a few miles southeast of Seattle. He and Alan Gaby, M.D., of Baltimore, give seminars for health professionals on " Nutrition as Therapy, " which present their theories in detail. (AQA's first 16 members were recruited at the May 1985 seminar.) also operates the Meridian Valley Laboratory, a facility that does many nonstandard tests. From 1993 through 1998, helped lead the National Health Federation, a group whose primary goal is to abolish government regulation of health-care activities. In the early 1990s, achieved considerable notoriety battling the FDA. The dispute surfaced in July 1991 when law enforcement officers seized 103 bottles of L-tryptophan from the For Your Health Pharmacy, adjacent to 's clinic. The FDA had banned the marketing of L-tryptophan after it was implicated in an outbreak of eosinophilia-myalgia syndrome, but continued to prescribe it. In August 1991, he filed suit, asserting that the outbreak was due to a contaminant and that his tryptophan was safe and therefore legal to dispense. The suit also asked the court to return the product and bar the FDA from " unreasonably interfering " with his ability to exercise clinical judgment in treating patients. During the same month, according to an FDA affidavit, FDA investigators observed mold in some glass vials at the pharmacy and were informed that the products had been made at a laboratory adjacent to 's clinic. Further investigation indicated that and the pharmacist were co-owners of the laboratory and clinic and that a clandestine manufacturing facility was being constructed in a vacant business next to the pharmacy [4]. When the investigators went to the laboratory, would not permit them to conduct a full inspection. During the next few months, however, illegally marketed products were identified by inspecting trash from the clinic and pharmacy. In December 1991, an FDA inspector posed as a patient and was diagnosed with an Interro device, a computerized galvanometer that measures changes in the skin's electrical resistance and depicts them on the screen of a monitor. (The reading on the screen is determined by how hard the probe is pressed against the patient's finger; the harder the pressure, the less skin resistance and the higher the reading. The FDA Center for Devices and Radiologic Health has said that such devices are " adulterated and misbranded " and can have no legal medical use [5].) The inspector reported that the woman who operated the device probed points on one of his fingers while selecting items on the screen that were said to represent substances to which he might be allergic. The woman explained that the height of a vertical bar that appeared when she probed his finger would indicate whether or not he was sensitive to the item being tested. After the test was completed, a printer next to the monitor printed a list of foods, chemicals, and other substances, with numerical values corresponding to readings on the Interro screen. Then he was given several homeopathic medicines, instructions for using them, and an article saying that they would result in dramatic relief of his allergic symptoms [6]. In February 1992, 's clinic posted a notice claiming that state-licensed physicians are " exempt from the restrictions and regulations of the federal Food and Drug Administration as a matter of federal law. " The notice also stated that " no employee, agent or inspector of the FDA shall be permitted on these premises. " On May 4, 1992, a U.S. magistrate issued warrants authorizing the FDA to conduct criminal searches at 's clinic and the adjacent pharmacy [. The warrants were based on affidavits which concluded that the clinic had been " receiving, using, and dispensing several unapproved and misbranded foreign-manufactured injectable drug products " and that the pharmacy had been dispensing them. Two days later, FDA agents accompanied local police officers who broke down the front door of the Tahoma clinic. and his supporters claim that the search party entered with guns drawn and terrorized the clinic staff. Federal officials state that the police broke down the door because the clinic staff had refused to open it when they knocked, a gun was drawn because the officers suspected that those inside might be hostile, but the gun was never pointed at anyone and was reholstered as soon as the area was deemed safe. The authorities seized products, patient files, computer records, and Interro devices from the clinic and additional materials from the pharmacy. Two weeks later, the state pharmacy board summarily suspended the pharmacy's license, an action taken only when the board feels that public health may be endangered. Sherman L. , Assistant Secretary for Licensing and Certification for the state of Washington, noted that the For Your Health pharmacy " was manufacturing a number of drugs and was distributing these drugs not only to patients on prescription but also to other doctors around the country for use in their offices. . . . In addition, the pharmacy was not properly licensed as a manufacturer and the drugs were being made under unsafe conditions. " The pharmacy subsequently gave up its license and operated as a health-food store. and his allies characterized the search procedure as " the Vitamin-B Bust " and sold videotapes showing part of the raid, the reaction of several clinic employees, and demonstrations staged by supporters.

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2011 Report Share Posted February 5, 2011 Walks like a duck! Quack Quack Quack.Run, chicken little, run.CE Grim MDHere is something you need to look at. do your own research to see how true it is.First this Thyroid Health Site Colleen ForgusBellaOnline's Thyroid Health EditorNote that The Foreward for the book was written by Dr. V. MD. I did a search for this Dr found something very intresing about him. Review-Dr. 's "Adrenal Fatigue" Guest Author - Jim LowranceI bought this wonderful book on the subject of adrenal fatigue entitled; "Adrenal Fatigue The 21st Century Stress Syndrome", about two years ago, at a Hastings book store. It was very interesting and hard to put down, so I finished it within a couple of days despite the fact it contains over 300 pages of reading. This book is authored by Dr. L. , who has a PhD in Human Nutrition, having also completed studies in immunology, microbiology, pharmacology and toxicology. He also has master's degrees in bio-nutrition and psychology and is a Doctor of Chiropractic and Naturopathic Medicine.The Foreward for the book was written by Dr. V. MD, who cites the fact that there are other MDs who have dedicated time to medical research and helping to inform the medical community about this very real medical condition, including Tintera MD and Jeffries MD. These facts are contrasted by the mentions by Dr. , in which he points out the fact in this book, that many doctors still do not recognize adrenal fatigue and therefore will not test patients for it or recommend treatments. This is changing slowly however, with more doctors beginning to recognize this syndrome as a true illness that can seriously affect the quality-of-life of those who experience it. My own doctor for example, who is a Board Certified Family Practitioner, fully recognizes this stress syndrome and actually provides her patients who suffer adrenal fatigue, with sheets that outline some of the treatments recommended by Dr. in this book.Information Dr. V. MDFrom Quackwatch AQA's president and cofounder was V. , M.D., a Harvard graduate who obtained his medical degree at the University of Michigan and began practicing "nutritional medicine" in 1973 at his Tahoma Clinic in Kent, Washington, a few miles southeast of Seattle. He and Alan Gaby, M.D., of Baltimore, give seminars for health professionals on "Nutrition as Therapy," which present their theories in detail. (AQA's first 16 members were recruited at the May 1985 seminar.) also operates the Meridian Valley Laboratory, a facility that does many nonstandard tests. From 1993 through 1998, helped lead the National Health Federation, a group whose primary goal is to abolish government regulation of health-care activities.In the early 1990s, achieved considerable notoriety battling the FDA. The dispute surfaced in July 1991 when law enforcement officers seized 103 bottles of L-tryptophan from the For Your Health Pharmacy, adjacent to 's clinic. The FDA had banned the marketing of L-tryptophan after it was implicated in an outbreak of eosinophilia-myalgia syndrome, but continued to prescribe it. In August 1991, he filed suit, asserting that the outbreak was due to a contaminant and that his tryptophan was safe and therefore legal to dispense. The suit also asked the court to return the product and bar the FDA from "unreasonably interfering" with his ability to exercise clinical judgment in treating patients.During the same month, according to an FDA affidavit, FDA investigators observed mold in some glass vials at the pharmacy and were informed that the products had been made at a laboratory adjacent to 's clinic. Further investigation indicated that and the pharmacist were co-owners of the laboratory and clinic and that a clandestine manufacturing facility was being constructed in a vacant business next to the pharmacy [4]. When the investigators went to the laboratory, would not permit them to conduct a full inspection. During the next few months, however, illegally marketed products were identified by inspecting trash from the clinic and pharmacy.In December 1991, an FDA inspector posed as a patient and was diagnosed with an Interro device, a computerized galvanometer that measures changes in the skin's electrical resistance and depicts them on the screen of a monitor. (The reading on the screen is determined by how hard the probe is pressed against the patient's finger; the harder the pressure, the less skin resistance and the higher the reading. The FDA Center for Devices and Radiologic Health has said that such devices are "adulterated and misbranded" and can have no legal medical use [5].) The inspector reported that the woman who operated the device probed points on one of his fingers while selecting items on the screen that were said to represent substances to which he might be allergic. The woman explained that the height of a vertical bar that appeared when she probed his finger would indicate whether or not he was sensitive to the item being tested. After the test was completed, a printer next to the monitor printed a list of foods, chemicals, and other substances, with numerical values corresponding to readings on the Interro screen. Then he was given several homeopathic medicines, instructions for using them, and an article saying that they would result in dramatic relief of his allergic symptoms [6].In February 1992, 's clinic posted a notice claiming that state-licensed physicians are "exempt from the restrictions and regulations of the federal Food and Drug Administration as a matter of federal law." The notice also stated that "no employee, agent or inspector of the FDA shall be permitted on these premises."On May 4, 1992, a U.S. magistrate issued warrants authorizing the FDA to conduct criminal searches at 's clinic and the adjacent pharmacy [. The warrants were based on affidavits which concluded that the clinic had been "receiving, using, and dispensing several unapproved and misbranded foreign-manufactured injectable drug products" and that the pharmacy had been dispensing them. Two days later, FDA agents accompanied local police officers who broke down the front door of the Tahoma clinic. and his supporters claim that the search party entered with guns drawn and terrorized the clinic staff. Federal officials state that the police broke down the door because the clinic staff had refused to open it when they knocked, a gun was drawn because the officers suspected that those inside might be hostile, but the gun was never pointed at anyone and was reholstered as soon as the area was deemed safe. The authorities seized products, patient files, computer records, and Interro devices from the clinic and additional materials from the pharmacy. Two weeks later, the state pharmacy board summarily suspended the pharmacy's license, an action taken only when the board feels that public health may be endangered.Sherman L. , Assistant Secretary for Licensing and Certification for the state of Washington, noted that the For Your Health pharmacy "was manufacturing a number of drugs and was distributing these drugs not only to patients on prescription but also to other doctors around the country for use in their offices. . . . In addition, the pharmacy was not properly licensed as a manufacturer and the drugs were being made under unsafe conditions." The pharmacy subsequently gave up its license and operated as a health-food store. and his allies characterized the search procedure as "the Vitamin-B Bust" and sold videotapes showing part of the raid, the reaction of several clinic employees, and demonstrations staged by supporters. However, noted that the items seized "were not just injectable vitamins but included a number of unapproved drugs." He did concede that the police officers' fear of danger was the result of assuming that the FDA definition of "illegal drugs" was the same as the county's definition (which covered heroin, cocaine, etc.).During a "Larry King Live" television broadcast, an FDA official said that the agency became interested in 's activities after someone complained that he was prescribing L-tryptophan and sending people to the pharmacy to have the prescriptions filled. maintained that he had a right to do this because his supply was not contaminated. When Larry King asked why he thought the FDA ban did not apply to him, replied, "My lawyer said I could use it."In August 1992, signed an agreement consenting to the destruction of the 103 bottles of L-tryptophan that had been seized and agreeing to pay at least $850 to cover court costs and fees associated with the action [7].
