Why is adrenal gland important? Why fatigue?
Adrenal glands are small and have triangular shape. The glands are controlled by pituitary glands and part of endocrine glands. Adrenal glands have important functions of metabolism, sugar control, blood pressure control and stress response. If you continue having stress, adrenal fatigue might occur such as sleep deprivation which causes cumulative stress. Furthermore, if pituitary glands are unable to control production of adrenal gland hormone, there will be adrenal gland related issues such as tumor, endocrine disorders, hormone production disorder, etc.
Risk factors of “adrenal fatigue”

How to take care of yourself
If you have adrenal fatigue, you have to change your lifestyle.
- Get rid of stress: Stress is the main cause of adrenal fatigue, so you should relax and reduce stress.
- Sleep at least 6 hours: You should change your sleeping habit to get full rest of at least 6 hours a day.
- Sleep before 10 pm: This is to have proper hormone level.
- If you feel tired during a day, you should take a rest, not forcing yourself to continue working.
