What Is the Adrenal Gland and How Can Ayurveda Support Its Function? - #14992
Lately, I’ve been feeling constantly tired, anxious, and overwhelmed. After some blood tests, my doctor mentioned that my adrenal glands might be underactive, a condition known as adrenal fatigue. I’ve been dealing with high stress at work and personal life, and I feel like my body is constantly in fight-or-flight mode. I’ve read that the adrenal gland is responsible for producing hormones like cortisol, adrenaline, and aldosterone, which regulate stress responses, but I’m looking for ways to naturally support these glands and restore balance. I’ve heard that Ayurveda offers solutions for managing stress and balancing the adrenal glands. Can Ayurvedic herbs like Ashwagandha, Brahmi, and Licorice help reduce stress and support adrenal function? I’ve read that these herbs have adaptogenic properties—could they help in restoring balance and improving my overall energy levels? Additionally, I’m curious if there are Ayurvedic lifestyle changes, like meditation, yoga, or specific dietary recommendations, that can support adrenal gland health. I want to improve my stress management and feel more balanced without relying solely on medication. Has anyone here experienced symptoms related to adrenal gland dysfunction and found relief through Ayurvedic treatments? What herbs, practices, or lifestyle changes worked for you in improving adrenal function and reducing stress?
