Your adrenal glands can wear out after a marathon, a season of training, or even just the unrelenting stress of everyday life. To repair them, you need to eat right and find the "pause" button in your life. Your adrenal glands are responsible for producing the hormones that regulate your metabolism and help your body respond to stress. When they are burnt out, you may feel tired but also wired. You may be exhausted but experience heart palpitations. Generally, if you just feel "out of whack," your adrenals may be to blame. Healthy eating is a great way to bounce back from adrenal problems. Your adrenals benefit from Vitamin C (found in fruit and broccoli), Vitamin B (found in Brazil nuts and avocados) and L-tyrosine (found in most meat and vegetables).
