Seven Causes Of Adrenal Fatigue

Adrenal fatigue is a condition where your adrenal glands get overworked and burned out. It can take a major toll on your health and wellbeing, so you’ll want to avoid the major adrenal fatigue causes if you can. In this article, learn what causes adrenal fatigue and how to fix it.

What is adrenal fatigue?

What are the adrenal glands? The adrenal glands are two triangle-shaped glands. There is one on top of each of your kidneys. The adrenal glands have an outside and an inside. We’re going to be primarily talking about the hormones on the outside—especially cortisol. Cortisol is a stress hormone. 

Part Two – Will Adrenal Fatigue Cause Weight Gain? How does this actually work?

High sugar stimulates insulin and insulin will do two things. Insulin is a fat making hormone but it also prevents the burning of fat. If you are in a chronic stress state, your body is not going to be able to get you into ketosis because of high cortisol and the high sugar and the high insulin so it is going to be really hard for you to get in the state of fat-burning if you have high cortisol.

Part One – Will Adrenal Fatigue Cause Weight Gain?

You must first understand why you would get weight gain with adrenal fatigue and how it all works. 

There is a condition of hypercortisolism that is high cortisol. The adrenal gland has an outside and an inside. The outside makes cortisol, the stress hormone.  There is a condition called Cushing’s syndrome. It is is high cortisol. Hypercortisolism means too much cortisol. It does not develop quickly. It is the same with adrenal fatigue, it starts at a certain point and it gradually gets worse and worse. Just like you have insulin resistance, pre-diabetic and then eventually a diabetic.

5 Reasons Why You Are Not Losing Weight When Fasting

You may not be loosing weight when you are fasting.

We are talking about fasting for a longer for period of time, not intermittent fasting.  If you’re doing intermittent fasting and keto and you are not losing weight usually it is because you are eating too many carbs.

The Most Important Action You Can Take If You Have Adrenal Fatigue.

The Adrenal can become burnt out.

If you have too much adrenal function like too much cortisol it’s called Cushing’s.

If you have a deficiency of cortisol and other adrenal hormones, that is called Addison’s.

The two big symptoms of adrenal fatigue are chronic fatigue and chronic inflammation.  Cortisol normally is an anti-inflammatory. But if the adrenals are weak or you run out of cortisol or it does not work anymore because of cortisol resistance then you get inflammation.

Your Stress May Be Preventing Full Ketosis

Could your stress be what is preventing full ketosis and causing your keto plateau?

If a person plateaus or they are not progressing like they should on the keto diet, in many cases, they look at their carbohydrate levels, fasting, or fats. But, stress could actually cause this as well.

Stress may actually prevent ketosis.

These 7 are important things you might not know about.

How to Repair Your Immune System If it is Old and Damaged.

When you age, your immune system starts going downhill. You have less:

• Natural killer cells – That means you cannot eliminate viruses as well as you did when you are in your 20s. You are not able to get rid of the tumor cells as efficiently.  

• B-cells – That means your antibodies go down, so your immune system does not remember past pathogens, so your immune system is a bit weaker.  

• T-cells  – Needed for killing off microbes, preventing autoimmune diseases, decreasing inflammation after an infection.

• Phagocytes  – The quantity will go down. You have less of these cells eating bacteria and cleaning up stuff.

You can see that age really creates a huge impact on the immune system.
