   Are any of you effected by stresses impact on the Adrenal Gland?  If so, how are you treating it?
   
   I put on weight, became depressed, and have been constantly feeling exhausted or lethargic.  I sought the aid of a homeopath MD and have begun treatment... but ideally he believes I need less stress.  How is that possible?

   Exercise is an important stress reliever.
   
   Twenty minutes of exercise 3 -4 times a week will decrease this demand placed on the adrenal glands.
   
   In addition, you need to supplement your diets with magnesium and multivitamins and minerals.

   Adrenal Stress is a life changing challenge.  I have found taking high dosages of Vitamin B's and C has helped me out when I am stressed out.  Instead of coffee I drink Techino coffee, a good substitute - it is alkalizing and no caffeine.  Hot baths with epsom salt and lavendar work well after a hard day at work.  A couple of good adrenal support herbs I found were Adrenal Stressend and Holy Basil.
   
   Your MD is right, you need to take a good look at what is stressing you out and make some changes.  Yoga, meditation, exercise or stress management classes.
