Your adrenal glands manage inflammation, blood sugar, and fluid balance. They support sex hormones and work with the thyroid to run metabolism. In addition to all of this, they are critical to how your body handles stress. Adrenal health is integral to whole body health, and knowing more about your adrenal function will help your body in the long run.
When adrenals work properly, they manage inflammation. Most people need adrenal support to either prevent inflammation from worsening— resulting in a disease state—or to help their body appropriately handle stress for other reasons.
Support your adrenal glands by committing to proper sleep patterns, a whole food diet, and regular activity as well as gradual detachments from habits like caffeine, sweets, and overworking.
