Adrenal Synergy supports the adrenal glands along with the HPA axis with a blend of glandulars, essential nutrients, and targeted botanicals.
This comprehensive formula supports the neuro-endocrine pathways involved in the management of occasional stress.

Why Adrenal Synergy?

Using this one simple formula supports adrenal health and the
hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. The adrenal glands and the
HPA axis play a critical role in managing the stress response. These
important functions also affect the neurobiology of mood disorders.
Adrenal Synergy is the ideal formula to help support the body in
dealing with symptoms of adrenal fatigue.

Daily Stress to Adrenal Fatigue

The human body has a very sophisticated mechanism for responding to
stress, calling on the nervous and endocrine systems for help. However,
with prolonged stress, these systems become exhausted, the necessary
neurotransmitters and hormones become depleted, and the body can
no longer maintain homeostasis. The body’s inability to cope with
stress is further exaggerated by poor diet and other lifestyle choices
such as the use of caffeine or alcohol and lack of exercise. Using a
blend of glandulars, essential nutrients, and targeted botanicals (along
with improved lifestyle decisions), Adrenal Synergy focuses on these
issues while supporting the neuro-endocrine pathways.

Micronutrients including vitamin C, zinc, vitamin B6
(p-5-phosphate), and folate (5-MTHF) are essential for
energy-producing pathways and serve as co-factors for synthesis of
adrenal hormones. Micronutrient supplementation has been shown to
improve the body’s response to stress in multiple clinical trials. In a
double-blind randomized study of 215 males receiving high-dose
micronutrient supplementation, subjects reported a reduction in
perceived stress scores and improvement in mood.

Rhodiola rosea is an adaptogenic herb traditionally used to improve
mood, memory, and stamina across Asia and Eastern Europe. In a
placebo-controlled study, rhodiola rosea was shown to inhibit
elevations in cortisol when subjects were exposed to chronic stress in
the form of endurance. Rhodiola rosea is an adaptogenic herb
traditionally used to improve mood, memory, and stamina across Asia
and Eastern Europe. In a placebo-controlled study, rhodiola rosea was
shown to inhibit elevations in cortisol when subjects were exposed to
chronic stress in the form of endurance exercise. Rhodiola rosea is a
powerful tonic against anxiety, demonstrating an improvement in
symptoms among patients diagnosed with generalized anxiety
disorder. Rhodiola rosea may also improve the body’s utilization of
oxygen as well as protect cells from damage induced by oxidative
stress.

Deglycyrrhizinated licorice (DGL) is an exceptionally useful herb in
managing adrenal function. Licorice blocks the breakdown of cortisol,
decreasing the body’s need to produce it. As cortisol demand
decreases, the adrenal glands are able to repair and restore normal
production of the other hormones. Licorice has also been shown to
increase DHEA, a critical anabolic hormone intermediary involved in the
production of estrogens and androgens.

Ashwagandha (Indian ginseng) is a potent herb shown to improve
mood and support nervous system health. Ashwagandha has been
shown to modulate stress-induced changes related to
neurotransmitters, cortisol, metabolism, and HPA axis activity.6
Researchers are now evaluating its benefits in a variety of
neurodegenerative diseases due to its protective benefits on the
nervous system.

Panax ginseng is an important adaptogenic herb used to ease mental
and physical exhaustion. It may help deplete the fatigue and lack of
energy experienced by adrenal fatigue patients. Panax ginseng also
encourages adrenal gland health in times of stress by maintaining
healthy levels of certain adrenal hormones, most notably,
corticosterone.

Eleutherococcus is an adaptogenic herb used to support cognition,
mental alertness, and response to physical stress. Eleutherococus may
be of specific benefit in patients experiencing low immunity or suffering
from recurrent infections.

Glandulars (pituitary, hypothalamus, thymus, adrenal) help to
regenerate the major organs involved in the stress response. Glandulars
help to rebuild tissues and balance body chemistry by providing the
substrates and materials needed by each specific organ.
