Here are some natural solutions for fighting adrenal fatigue and reclaiming your energy.
* Emotional Detox : It is important for the patiënt that he understand the relation between stress and physical problems. So the therapeut needs to emphasise that it is necessary that the cliënt works on his underlying problems which causes the stress. Sometimes the patiënt can be referred to another specialist like a life coach or psychotherapist to work further on his problems.
* Physical Detox : It is also important to detox the body by eliminating toxins (fertilisers, processed food,..) and to nourish the body with healthy food and possibly suplements like Vitamin B Complex which re-nourish the liver. Aromatherapy can also help with Juniper Berry oil, Grapefruit Oil or Cypress oil. Sometimes a lotion can be made for the patiënt for daily use.
*The Adrenal Fatigue Diet : Increasing your levels of [[Vitamin C]] (found in citrus, red bell peppers, papaya, and broccoli) and [[vitamin B5]] (available in sunflower seeds, mushrooms, yogurt, and corn) and [[Vitamin B6]] through your diet or supplements may help ease symptoms of adrenal fatigue. Too much caffeine may also take its toll on your adrenal glands. To curb your caffeine intake, try to gradually replace coffee and soda with lower-caffeine beverages like green tea.
*Herbs : For herbal relief of adrenal fatigue, look to adaptogens. This class of herbs (which includes [[Ginseng]], [[Ashwagandha]], [[Rhodiola]], [[Cordyceps]]) is thought to build your resistance to physical, chemical, and biological stress, as well as boost your energy and vitality. In a 2009 study, for instance, researchers found that taking 576 mg of a standardized rhodiola extract in supplement form daily reduced stress and increased mental performance (without producing adverse effects) in a group of adults suffering from stress-related fatigue.
