ADRENAL BURNOUT SYNDROME

Thousands of people suffer from constant fatigue,

unrelieved by rest and sleep. This is the main symptom of adrenal

burnout syndrome. Other symptoms may include a craving for sweets,

low blood pressure and blood sugar, irritability and depression. Low

energy impairs every system of the body. Secondary symptoms range

from impaired digestion to infections. Toxic emotions accumulate with

adrenal burnout. The world looks bad, people are evil, and a hopeless

attitude is not uncommon.

The condition is also called adrenal hypofunction,

exhaustion or insufficiency. Unlike fatigue, oneís energy does not

return after a good nightís rest. Burnout is a more serious

derangement of the bodyís energy system.

The adrenals are the major glands the body uses to

respond to stress. Its hormones raise the blood sugar and blood

pressure, and promote energy production. Adrenalin or epinephrine is

used for emergencies. Longer-acting anti-stress adrenal hormones

cortisone and cortisol. Aldosterone, another adrenal hormone, retains

sodium and increases the blood pressure. Related closely to the

sympathetic nervous system, the fight-or-flight response it is

called. When the adrenals become depleted, the body is unable to

handle stress.

Most physicians do not diagnose adrenal burnout

syndrome. Rarely, if enough tests are run, it may be called ís

disease. This doctors consider incurable. Recovery from adrenal

burnout, however, is definitely possible. The condition affects both

men and women, and even children as well. Some children are born this

way and never experience plenty of energy.

Burnout may develop slowly or be caused by a single

trauma. F. Kennedy experienced burnout during World War II. Late

one night, his patrol boat was rammed by a Japanese destroyer,

killing most of the crew. He never recovered from the shock. For the

rest of his life, he needed replacement adrenal hormones. If he had

found the right practitioner, perhaps they would not have been needed.

CAUSES OF ADRENAL BURNOUT

Excessive stress, an important cause of burnout, can be from many

sources. Chemical toxicity and nutritional depletion are among the

physical causes. Mental, emotional or spiritual stress may be a major

factor. Financial, family or other stress may also contribute to

burnout.

Any excessive stress can deplete the adrenals,

especially when weakened by poor nutrition. Working too much or

emotional stress are two common causes. Excessive stimulation,

especially for children, is another cause. Fast-paced, high-stress,

fear-based lifestyles are a sure prescription for adrenal burnout.

Other stressors in cities are noise and

electromagnetic pollution. Cell phones, microwave towers and

appliances like televisions, microwave ovens and computers give off

strong electrical fields.

Nutritional Deficiencies are a common cause. When

under stress, the need for nutrients is much greater. Carbohydrates,

when excessive in the diet, stress the adrenals. Diets low in protein

may also create deficiencies. Inadequate or poor quality water

affects oxygenation of the tissues.

Most diets are low in nutrients required by the

adrenals. These include B-complex vitamins, vitamins A, C and E,

manganese, zinc, chromium, selenium and other and other trace

elements. The reasons for this begin with how food is grown. Most

food is grown on depleted soils. Processing and refining further

deplete nutrients. Habits like eating in the car or while on the run

further diminish the value derived from food. Also, allergic

reactions to foods such as wheat and dairy products can damage the

intestines and reduce the absorption of nutrients.

Toxic metals and chemicals often play a large role

in adrenal burnout. Everyone is exposed to thousands of chemicals in

the air, the water and the food. Other sources are dental materials

and skin contact with chemicals. Over-the-counter and prescribed

medications add to the bodyís toxic load.

Toxins may also be generated within the body due to

impaired digestion. When food is not properly digested, it either

ferments or rots in the intestines, producing many harmful substances

that are absorbed into the body.

Chronic infections, of dental and other origin,

also contribute to the toxic load. In most people, the organs of

elimination do not function at an optimal level. As a result, toxic

substances slowly build up in the body, leading to adrenal burnout

and many other health conditions.

Stimulants damage the adrenal glands. They whip

the adrenals. Caffeine, sugar and alcohol are among the most common

stimulants. Less obvious stimulants include anger, rage, arguing,

hatred, loud music, the news and movies full of suspense. Vigorous

exercise, sexual preoccupations and other thrills may also act as

stimulants.

Stimulant use, however, can also be a result of

adrenal burnout. Stimulants are attractive to one in burnout to

provide temporary energy. This is an appeal of the drug culture, both

legal and recreational.

Unhealthy responses to stress are another cause of

adrenal burnout. These include habits of worrying, or becoming angry

or afraid. Donít worry, be happy is a great prescription for adrenal

burnout. This applies particularly to high strung, nervous

individuals and those with very active minds, as they are especially

prone to adrenal burnout.

Many children today are born with weak adrenals due

to their parentsí nutritional deficiencies. By age three or four,

these children are in burnout. They are often sick, depressed and

have difficulty in school.

SYMPTOMS OF ADRENAL BURNOUT

Low blood sugar and allergies result from low

levels of cortisol. Joint and muscle pain are other common symptoms.

Multiple chemical sensitivity is an extreme allergic condition

associated with adrenal burnout. Low blood pressure and low body

temperature may also result. Later blood pressure rises as toxic

substances build up in the arteries and kidneys.

Elevated copper and low zinc related to adrenal

burnout impair the immune system. Chronic infections may develop.

The stage is also set for the development of degenerative

conditions. Cancer, heart disease, Parkinsonís and Alzheimerís

diseases are end-stage results of toxic accumulation and energy

depletion.

Often secondary to adrenal exhaustion are glandular

imbalances, hyperthyroidism and more often hypothyroidism. The

adrenal glands produce estrogen and progesterone. They are the main

source of these hormones after menopause. Premenstrual syndrome and

hot flashes often have to do with weakened adrenal glands.

Depression and apathy are common in adrenal

burnout. One may lose interest in friends, family and work. Unsure if

there is energy to get through the day, anxiety may occur.

Irritability is common as one is less able to handle even minor

stress. Unfortunately, many with adrenal burnout function on anger

and resentment. These act as adrenal stimulants, providing a negative

energy with which to function. Most of the world, in fact, functions

on the negative energy of anger.

Compulsiveness and OCD is associated with adrenal

burnout. One may become addicted or very attracted to excessive

exercise, sex, loud music or other forms of excitement. The

unconscious goal is always the same, to stimulate the adrenals into

activity.

When the adrenals are weak, copper builds up in the

body. Elevated copper enhances emotions. Panic attacks, bipolar

disorder, mood swings and schizophrenia are related to copper

imbalance. As oneís energy level declines, other toxic metals build

up as well. Mercury, cadmium, lead, arsenic, beryllium and others

contribute to hundreds of physical and emotional symptoms.
