Whatever the age, it sometimes happens to suffer from a hair loss, an excess of fatigue or having fragile and brittle nails. The causes can be many. But have you thought about the fatigue of the adrenal glands? A very common but little known cause is adrenal fatigue.
The adrenal glands are two in number and each is located above the kidneys. Their function is to synthesize and produce hormones in the blood such as adrenaline and norepinephrine. In fact, these hormones play an important role in regulating blood pressure, improving metabolism, and managing stress and depression.
Being under too much physical, emotional, psychological or environmental stress can weaken the adrenal glands, which then reduce hormone production.
