In today's fast-paced world, the chronic stress that many people experience on an ongoing basis is one of the contributing factors causing adrenal fatigue.
The hormones secreted by the adrenal glands are your body’s natural defense against the stress caused by allergies, hormonal imbalances, low thyroid, injury or difficult life experiences.
When your adrenal glands become exhausted, your natural cortisol levels drop significantly. Cortisol is your naturally occurring stress hormone.
At the Hotze Health & Wellness Center we prescribe naturally occurring, bio-identical cortisol, when indicated, to supplement declining levels that occur with aging, stress, chronic inflammatory conditions and allergic disorders.
Physiological levels of cortisol are essential for good health as it bolsters your immune system, increasing your resistance to infections and inflammation.
Cortisol also promotes the assimilation of thyroid hormones and sex hormones by the cells of your body. Low levels of cortisol have been associated with lowered metabolism and a weakened immune system.
