Your adrenals are two walnut-shaped glands that weigh about 0.2 ounces or 5 grams each and sit on top of your kidneys. Adrenal fatigue is one of the biggest cause of hormonal imbalance in women. These constant slumps and dips are signs that your adrenals are really struggling. You don’t fall back asleep quickly or only manage to nod off again shortly before it’s time to get up for the day.
3-5am: Energy Rise: You wake from sleep feeling suddenly alert or very tense. 
1-2am: Energy Dip: You finally feel tired enough to sleep.11 pm: Energy Rise: You suddenly get a second wind and end up reading for hours or watching back-to-back episodes of the latest ‘it’ series on Netflix.
9.30/10pm: Energy Low: You’re tired, even nodding off, but you’ve been rushing all day so you want to sit up a bit longer to feel you actually have a life.Or if you’re seriously fatigued you actually have to have a nap when you get home. 6-9 pm: Energy Rise or Continued Dip: You slowly recover from the afternoon energy trough.At home, you’re so exhausted you have to have a quick nap. 3-5pm: Energy Slump : At work, you keep wanting to put your head down on the desk.12-2pm: Energy Rise: After lunch, you finally feel awake enough to get more done.
9.30-11am: Energy Low: Your body still feels like you’ve got no gas in the tank. 6-8 am Energy Slump On Waking : You struggle to drag yourself out of bed and can’t get going without a strong coffee or two (or three). Over time, as your adrenal fatigue worsens, it can totally compromise your natural hormone balance, which may lead you to experience enormous energy fluctuations that look something like this: Meanwhile, it will also cause symptoms of hormone imbalance. Have the words “I’m so stressed” and “I’m exhausted” become daily mantras? Do you often feel teary and tense and think, “I can’t handle this pressure anymore”? If stress calls the shots on your life, it’s highly likely you’re suffering from adrenal burnout. Addressing stress responses is one of the most overlooked natural ways to balance hormones, achieve stable weight, a healthy immune system, good sleep, and stable moods. Yet, many women and their doctors don’t recognize the warning signs of adrenal fatigue until it’s far too late. It’s one of the most common hormonal problems I see. Your body gets stuck in “high alert” mode and stress hormones are released over and over due to constant daily pressures, they can cause adrenal exhaustion. If you have too many adrenal hormones they go straight to your waistline. Did you know that gaining weight around your belly could be a classic sign of adrenal fatigue?Īnd that chronic stress can directly block your ability to lose any weight at all?
