Is your skin darkening?
When you stand up too quickly, do you feel a wee bit light-headed or dizzy for a few seconds?
Do you feel extremely tired and badly require that dose of caffeine to get you through the day?
What you are battling with, actually has a name: Adrenal Fatigue!
What does that mean?
It means you are overflowing with the stress hormone ‘Cortisol’ released by two tiny triangle-shaped glands called adrenals that are sitting right on top of your kidneys.
When you are exposed to stress, you body is designed to pump you up with Cortisol to deal with a stressful situation. What this does…it switches your body to function on Glucose…so you will get that immediate quick burst of energy required to handle the situation. It releases the spare glucose stored in your liver ( just to get you through May Day!). It also makes Glucose from reserves of protein and fat.
Now your blood is filled with…well, a lot of SUGAR!
All this Sugar is bound to give you that Sugar rush you crave to get you through the stress…however the downside of the sugar surge is that, while it gives you the initial boost of energy, you later experience an extreme low…that is when you need your shot of caffine to get you through the low tide.
Bottom line: the more stress you have, the more your body runs on SUGAR! And…more ‘lows’ you are going to experience.
You body is well equipped to handle short-term stress like the quick swerve you took to avoid an accident or rushed to handle an emergency of your loved one. Once the incident is over with an ‘all is well that ends well’ happy ending note, you are back to your normal state of neutral gear.
