*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.
* [[Phosphatidylserine]] sharpens your thinking, stabilizes your mood and helps you maintain emotional balance in the face of mental stress.
* [[Licorice]] : One of its components, glycyrrhizin, assists in blocking the breakdown of cortisol, giving it the ability to raise the levels of cortisol in the body; hence, making it capable of fighting chronic fatigue syndrome and stress.* Dietary supplements : * [[Vitamin C]], [[Magnesium]], [[vitamin B]], [[Coenzyme Q10]]
* [[Siberian ginseng]] has been shown in research to reduce symptoms of fatigue and improve exercise tolerance. Studies also show healthy aging benefits due to its abilities to reduce damage to DNA. It supports the body by balancing stress hormone production and helping the adrenals cope with stress.
*Support Your Adrenals With Stress Relief : Keeping your stress in check is key to alleviating adrenal fatigue. Research shows that yoga, meditation, and tai chi can all help lower your levels of cortisol and decrease your stress. For optimal stress relief, include one of these tension-taming practices—or another relaxation technique, such as deep breathing—into your daily routine. Exercise is also effective for managing stress, but high-intensity cardiovascular workouts (such as running or vigorous cycling) may contribute to burnout in some cases.

Adrenal fatigue is closely related to, but not to be confused with, Addison’s Disease, a disorder characterized by insufficient cortisol production due either to a pathology directly affecting the adrenals or a disruption of signaling between the brain and the adrenals. While symptoms of Addison’s Disease are similar to adrenal fatigue, the primary difference is that adrenal fatigue is considered a possible result of the overuse of otherwise healthy adrenal glands due to stress.
