Are you dealing with an Adrenal Imbalance?

Insomnia, feeling wired but tired, weight gain, anxiety, depression, brain fog, food cravings, fatigue…

These symptoms are so common but SO not normal.

Here are 12 of the most common signs of Adrenal Imbalances. Remember common doesn’t mean normal & this not to diagnose or treat rather for education only.

TOP SYMPTOMS:

1. Morning Fatigue: Hard to get going in the morning, more fatigue in the afternoon, then gets a jolt of energy at night.
2. Increased cravings: specifically high sugar carbohydrates, fatty & salty foods

Many women who I’ve worked with have issues with their hormone system but GOOD NEWS is that through proper testing & addressing root causes, they’re able to balance their hormones naturally!

Instead of guessing or ignoring, in functional medicine we used specialized testing to find out the ROOT CAUSES of these issues, so then we can create a personalized protocol to getting you back to optimal health!

The DUTCH test is one of these and it’s a favorite, because it shows us SO much! The DUTCH uses dried urine, not blood, to get a more accurate picture of cortisol, sex hormones, adrenals and more.

When we have ALL the information, then we can work on specifics to addressing the whole body, reducing internal stress & getting rid of the PMS, the brain fog, headaches, troubles sleeping and more!
