The adrenal glands are small glands shaped like an almond nut and about the same size positioned on top of each kidney. They are one of the hardest working and one of the most important organs in our body. There is a very intricate and closely knit connection between the brain, the adrenal glands, the thyroid and the pancreas, controlling and regulating our response to stress from within and from our environment, as well as maintaining our metabolic processes, our energy, our fertility, sex drive and our immune system. They control our cravings, our mood, water retention, weight gain or loss, our emotions like anger, anxiety and patience as well as controlling our blood sugar, food sensitivities and ability to fight infections.

Adaptogens
Adaptogens are extremely beneficial for the human body in enabling the body to adapt efficiently to stress and in particular to support the adrenal glands (our “stress organs”) and the immune system. Adaptogens are non-toxic natural plant substances which help the body resist or adjust to, stressors of all kinds, namely physical, mental, chemical and biological. Adaptogens are found in plants and herbs which are able to survive extreme environments, such as extremely hot and dry, or extremely cold and wet environments, as well as having remarkable resistance to parasites, germs, moulds, insects, chemicals and radiation. Adaptogenic plants are found all over the world including Russia, China, India, Africa, Europe and North and South America. They work on the H-P-A axis in the body (Hypothalamus, Pituitary and Adrenal glands).
