Question:
Briefly, my immune system is extremely compromised..20 yrs ago I was diagnosed with contact dermatitis.Hospitalizations, specialists, cortisone oral, topical, intravenous.allergy tests inconclusive. After years of trying all forms of therapies, this year I researched and put myself on a wholesome eating plan. 3months later internally I feel better, however my main concern right now is fatigue!! As I believe my skin and gut problems are my stress response, I wondered if adrenal system is compromised?? I am an anxious person.
Answer:
With the history you mention, yes it is quite likely that you are experiencing adrenal exhaustion. You have made some good choices, as far as diet improvement and understanding the connections between the different challenges you are having.
I do cover diet very completely in my book, The Paw Paw Program, as I consider Diet the #1 Pillar for all healing.
In addition to diet, the other pillars discussed in my book are emotions, exercise, and supplementation – all important. As far as supplementation is concerned, there is a new product, at this point only available in the US, but hopefully will be in Canada by June, called Anxiousless. I have heard excellent results with this product.
For nutritionally supporting and rebuilding adrenals , we have used a formulation called Adrenal Support. Please contact our office, or phone us, 250-748-6802 (yes old fashioned, but efficient and personable) if you would like to order either of these. That way you can be sure to get therapeutic quality nutritionals direct from same company we have used for 25 years, get a discount, as well as our continued support.
