Hey, it's Marco! You’d have to be living under a rock not to notice that adrenal problems are at epidemic proportions in our modern culture. The fact that a Starbucks or some other coffee shop is on practically every corner and that the average American now consumes a whopping 180 lbs per year of refined sugars is surely evidence enough. By the way, the 180 lbs of sugar per year figure is a shocking 27% increase just since 2003 when sugar consumption was 142 lbs per person per year!
Just in case you're wondering... Here are some tell-tale signs:
* difficulty getting up in the morning, feel terrible in the morning
* needing coffee or energy shots to get going or keep going during the day
* mid-morning energy low
* afternoon energy low between 2-5pm
* second burst of energy at around 11pm lasting until 1-2am
* best sleep comes between 7-9pm
* craving salt and foods high in salt (potato chips, pretzels, etc.)
* low blood sugar under stress
* low blood pressure
* craving sweets
* intolerance to foods high in potassium (i.e. bananas)
* generally don’t feel well throughout the day
* no motivation... shall I keep going?
