Impact of adrenal exhaustion on Hashimotos bear with me on this one. This one might be a few minutes longer. I'll try not to make it too long. Okay. Because when I first got into functional medicine, it was, you can't fix the adrenals. You can't fix anything. There's a smidge in of truth to that, there's some truth to that. But the reality is, is the adrenals get the snot kicked out of him like every day, all day long. And it's not stress it's partially stress it's it's. And, and let me even refine that. What I meant to say was it's not particularly mental stress, everything that happens in your system that creates inflammatory responses and puts you outta balance, causes a stress on your adrenal glands. Okay? And so your adrenal glands are, they are affected by they're affected by food sensitivities. They're affected by leaky gut.

They're affected by lipo poly rights. They're affected by small intestinal bacteria overgrowth. They're affected by any type of an infection they're affected by any type of a chemical sensitivity. And in a lot of the, Hashimoto's patients they're affected by over exercising, they're affected by not sleeping enough, they're affected by not being too sedentary. I could go on for a long time with, to all the things that create and a stress on the, on the body that forces your adrenal glands to either put out stress hormones, which is a adrenaline epinephrine or epinephrine or adrenaline. It can put out, it can put out cortisol, which is the one that everybody seems to be really familiar with today. Everybody's familiar with cortisol now, as they should be, they can put out cortisol and cortisol knows it's a stress hormone, but it's also, it's also before it's an inflammatory hormone.

It's, it's actually an anti-inflammatory home run before it becomes too much. And it also helps to control your blood sugar. It also can. It's also helps to control all your sex hormones. If you're, if you're in menopause and prior to menopause, it's a secondary repository for making, for making sex hormone. So your adrenals do a lot and they are affected by all that. You go through menopause and you're going through menopause really badly. And you're having a bad time. You, you have bad adrenals, but your E <inaudible> imbalances that and progesterone imbalances, they're going, they're also screwing up your adrenal. So the point is when I attack a case, if the person has adrenal fatigue, and I hate that, I hate that term, but that's the term that a lot of people like to use, okay. Or adrenal exhaustion, or I it's just hypo adrenal function.

The adrenals are like, they're like a little factory. Somebody says, I need these hormones. They put 'em out. They put 'em out. They put 'em out. They put 'em out, they put 'em out. And all of a sudden they all have so, so much hormones that they can put out and they are amazingly, amazingly regenerative. I might add the adrenals. So really the adrenals are, are how do they affect how they affect Hashimoto's or, or how does Hashimoto's affect them?
