Adrenal Insufficiency ~ Fatigue Capsules

Blender’s Notes Adrenal Insufficiency ~ Fatigue Capsules:

Steep Me Self Help Tea combinations are a wonderful way to get health benefits outside of the standard tea leaf. This combination of herbs helps the body with occasional insufficiencies of the adrenal system and adrenal fatigue. The adrenal glands are two small organs that sit on top of each kidney. It is comprised of two parts: the cortex and the medulla. Each piece plays a vital role in physiological processes in the body. The innermost part is called the adrenal medulla, producing the stress hormone adrenaline. The outer capsule is called the adrenal cortex, which consists of three layers- the zona glomerulosa, the zona fasciculata, and the zona reticularis. Each layer has a specific role in hormone regulation within the body. Cortisol, the primary stress hormone measured in functional medicine, is a glucocorticoid hormone produced by the zona fasciculata. While its primary role is to regulate the sleep-wake cycle and alertness when your body goes through a stressful situation, it also plays a role in macronutrient utilization, inflammation modulation, blood pressure, bone health, and blood sugar control. Cortisol can also impact other organs through signaling in the Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal (HPA) axis. Excess cortisol secretion is a leading contributor to things like Cushing’s disease, and in chronic scenarios, cortisol can burn out, leading to adrenal fatigue. Adrenal fatigue is a stress-related phenomenon. The adrenal glands of the body are said to produce inadequate hormones, especially cortisol. This is due to chronic stress which puts the body at a lower functioning level than its original state. The term ‘adrenal fatigue,’ was put together by James Wilson, a chiropractor, in 1998. It describes a collection of symptoms that happen when the adrenal glands, found atop the kidneys, are not functioning as they should. At times when we move through our adult lives, the adrenal glands are not working up to par. They are exhausted and are not producing adequate quantities of the hormones the body needs. Common Symptoms of adrenal fatigue: Slow to start in the morning ~ Cravings for salty or sugary foods ~ Low libido ~ Fatigue in the afternoon ~ A “second wind” in the evening ~ Inability to stay asleep ~ Dizziness when standing up quickly ~ Afternoon headaches ~ Blood sugar issues ~ Chronic inflammation ~ Weak nails and brittle hair ~ Moodiness and Difficulty losing weight.   Adrenal Fatigue: Symptoms, Treatment, Causes, and More (verywellhealth.com)

In this blend we included our herbs with Rooibos Red also known as “red bush tea” or “African red tea,” is made from the fermented leaves of the Aspalathus linearis shrub, a plant native to South Africa Tea from Africa. We used this tea to help regulate the hormones secreted by the adrenals, Rooibos tea helps you lose weight, supports bone health because it is rich in calcium, keeps skin looking young, prevents cancer and diabetes and aids in digestion as well. It is also known for relaxing the mind and body  and Contains alpha hydroxy acid superoxide dismutase which helps reduce signs of aging ~ The zinc in the tea may help address eczema and acne ~ Contains antioxidants with anti-inflammatory properties that may help reduce inflammation ~ The anti-spasmodic compounds in the tea may help address gastrointestinal issues ~ Demonstrates estrogenic activity, i.e. supports the production of estrogen ~ Supports heart health due to the flavonoid chrysoerial, a bronchodilator that also lowers blood pressure and increases blood circulation and Boosts your immune health.  With the Rooibos we also included Egyptian Chamomile Flowers. Chamomile is proven to help relieve anxiety, depression, stress, irritability, distress, and tummy troubles. We also added Borage. The adrenal glands in our body work extremely hard all day to prepare our body for fight or flight situations, constantly releasing adrenalin into the body. Adrenal fatigue can occur when the body is overstressed. Borage is used to restore the adrenal glands to their natural balance, which in turn creates a calmer body and mind because they contain gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), an omega-6 fatty acid with anti-inflammatory properties. This helps nourish the gland by supporting the production of anti-inflammatory prostaglandins. These prostaglandins help regulate the body’s stress response and reduce inflammation, which can be beneficial for adrenal health.  Then we added Schisandra Berry. Schisandra Berry is an adaptogenic berry that has been used for decades to support physical health, mental health, and weakness. It is commonly used in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) as a tonifier to assist the body’s Qi or “vital force.” This is an excellent choice for individuals trying to mitigate mental and physical burnout, as it can help support stamina. There are multiple studies looking at the use of Schisandra in athletes and the adaptogenic support this herb can provide under stress. Licorice Root was added because it is immensely helpful for solving adrenal fatigue. What makes it special for fighting adrenal exhaustion is its active compound, glycyrrhizic acid. Glycyrrhizic acid inhibits cortisol (stress hormone) breakdown, which assists in restoring normal levels of this hormone. Licorice root also increases levels of another stress reducing hormone known as dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA).

In this blend we also included Ginseng Root. Ginseng Root is an adaptogen that is rich in antioxidants that may reduce inflammation, and it is great for maintaining homeostasis under stress. It is a cortisol modulator and regulates the function of the HPA axis, thus decreasing the hypersecretion of cortisol from the adrenal glands. This is an excellent choice when you are under chronic stress and need an effective and supportive Famed as an energy tonic in China since ancient times. Ginseng contains remarkable compounds that favorably affect the adrenal glands to better endure physical strain, resist disease, and perform tests of mental sharpness. It is good for both men and women, the main benefits being increased resistance to stress, normalized metabolism, and regulation of neurotransmitters. Ginseng is also an anti-depressant that helps improve sleep, diminishes lethargy, lessens irritability, and induces a feeling of well-being. Ginseng works primarily on the pituitary gland in the brain to better regulate adrenal gland function. In adrenal fatigue, communication between the pituitary gland and the adrenals may be impaired. Next, we included Holy Basil. Holy Basil is a traditional Ayurvedic herbal remedy that it is an adaptogenic herb for adrenal health and it can help regulate cortisol levels by enhancing the central nervous system and its interaction with the HPA axis, which, like these other plants, will assist you in toning down your body’s stress response. The Holy Basil plant was shown to be 39% more effective in managing stress. Holy Basil also has great antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits, which can reduce oxidative stress and inflammation, affecting the adrenal glands. Lastly, this plant extract can be used to support blood sugar regulation. Harmful blood sugar fluctuations can lead to an increase in cortisol as the adrenal glands are triggered during spikes. Also included, Rhodiola was added. Rhodiola is an adaptogenic herb that stems from a plant grown in the wild Arctic regions of Europe, Asia, and North America. It is known to decrease stress, fight fatigue, and improve physical performance. Rhodiola is a superstar adaptogen for calming and rebalancing your body’s stress response. Not only is rhodiola able to lower your cortisol levels – your body’s stress hormone – it has also been shown to increase your energy levels, stamina, and boost mental clarity.

We also included Shatavari Root. Shatavari Root is an adaptogenic herb with a rich history in Ayurvedic medicine. In relation to adrenal fatigue, it can Boost Immunity because it has been scientifically proven to enhance the body’s immune response and system. It contains antioxidants such as asparagamine and racemosol, which combat free radical damage and support the immune system. It can Support the Adrenals. Shatavari nourishes the adrenal glands, which play a crucial role in managing stress. Its adaptogenic properties help detoxify the adrenals from free radicals and regulate their function. It can Prevent Adrenal Fatigue because it assists in coping with stress more effectively. Next, we added Ashwagandha and Astralagus. Ashwagandha is an adaptogenic herb that can be beneficial for adrenal health. It helps the body adapt to stress and supports the adrenal glands, which are responsible for producing hormones like cortisol. It helps lower cortisol levels, which can reduce stress, prevent adrenal fatigue, and strengthens the immune system, helping the body stay resilient under stress. Ashwagandha can improve energy levels and endurance, making it easier to cope with daily stressors plus, by regulating the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, ashwagandha helps maintain hormonal balance. Astragalus helps lower cortisol levels, which can reduce stress and prevent adrenal fatigue. It strengthens the immune system, helping the body stay resilient under stress. Astragalus can improve energy levels and endurance, making it easier to cope with daily stressors and just like Ashwagandha, it regulates the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, astragalus helps maintain hormonal balance. Finally, we also included Wild Yam. Wild Yam, which is known for its progesterone boosting activity is an excellent additional tool to add to your arsenal of adrenal support. Wild Yam contains diogenim which may also provide actual DHEA activity. It can help balance hormonal levels, relieving symptoms of PMS and Menopause, and helping to reverse Osteoporosis. The relationship between adrenal fatigue and progesterone levels potentially runs in two directions. Adrenal fatigue can affect the amount of DHEA secreted in the adrenals, thereby reducing the body’s ability to metabolize sex hormones and produce normal progesterone levels. Conversely, reduced progesterone production in the ovaries can diminish the amount of cortisol and adrenaline manufactured in the adrenal glands. contains diosgenin. It is a plant steroid that scientists can manipulate to produce steroids, such as progesterone, estrogen, cortisone, and dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) improves digestion by enhancing gall bladder and liver function, steroidal glycoside, diosgenin, has potent anti-inflammatory properties. help manage blood sugar due to the chemical called dioscoretine.
