When we find ourselves constantly in a high-stress environment, our body may not be able to keep up with restoring itself. The overburdening of our bodies takes a toll on our adrenal glands responsible for the release of various stress hormones. The gland becomes exhausted and cannot function properly.
Adrenal fatigue is very common, but when the fatigue becomes chronic more symptoms begin to arise. The chronic fatigue Syndrome (CFS) is a disease categorized by extreme fatigue; sleep abnormalities, and pain that increases with activity. The main symptom is fatigue for over six months that does not improve with rest.
Common Effects of Fatigue:
- Pain in Joints or Muscles
