Adrenal
dysfunction is one of the major underlying causes and/ or results of
most chronic illnesses including fatigue, hormonal imbalance, chronic
stress, etc. The major hormones being produced are Aldosterone, Cortisol,
DHEA and Adrenalin. Adrenal support must always be addressed when
balancing the thyroid hormones, estrogens and other hormones.
