Adrenal Gland Fatigue Support Through Root-Cause Functional Medicine
What Is Adrenal Gland Fatigue?
Adrenal gland fatigue refers to a state of chronic stress or burnout in which the adrenal glands, responsible for producing stress hormones like cortisol, struggle to keep up with the demands of daily life. While not recognized as a formal diagnosis in conventional medicine, many individuals experience symptoms that point to sluggish adrenal function support being necessary.
When your body is under prolonged physical, emotional, or mental stress, your adrenal glands can become overwhelmed. This leads to imbalanced hormone production, affecting everything from your energy levels to sleep quality, mood, and immune function.
At Performance Health & Wellness, we address adrenal fatigue with a root-cause approach, identifying lifestyle factors, nutrient deficiencies, and hormonal imbalances that may be contributing to your symptoms. We then create a personalized plan that may include lifestyle changes, stress management strategies, and adrenal support supplements to restore balance naturally.
Signs You May Have Adrenal Burnout
Do you feel exhausted no matter how much rest you get? Are stress and fatigue interfering with your daily life? You may be experiencing adrenal burnout, a condition that develops when your adrenal glands are overworked and no longer regulate stress hormones efficiently.
At Performance Health & Wellness, we help you identify the signs early and offer personalized care, including natural and targeted adrenal gland support supplements, to help restore your energy, focus, and mood.
Common signs of adrenal burnout include:
- Persistent Fatigue: You feel tired all day—even after a full night’s sleep.
- Difficulty Waking Up: You hit snooze multiple times and struggle to feel alert in the morning.
- Midday Energy Slumps: Your energy crashes between 2–4 p.m., often paired with sugar or caffeine cravings.
- Craving Salty or Sweet Foods: Your body may be seeking minerals and energy due to depleted adrenal function.
- Sleep Disturbances: You may feel “wired but tired” at night and have trouble falling or staying asleep.
- Brain Fog & Poor Concentration: Mental clarity, memory, and focus are often affected.
- Increased Anxiety or Irritability: You may feel more reactive, anxious, or emotionally drained than usual.
If these symptoms sound familiar, it may be time to seek comprehensive adrenal gland support. At Performance Health & Wellness, we use functional lab testing and personalized care protocols, including the use of high-quality adrenal gland support supplements, to help your body reset, rebuild, and thrive.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Adrenal gland fatigue often disrupts cortisol levels and insulin sensitivity, which can lead to stubborn weight gain—especially around the belly. At Performance Health & Wellness, we address these metabolic imbalances with functional testing and tailored lifestyle strategies.
Absolutely. Hormonal transitions like perimenopause can place added stress on the adrenal glands. Many women experience fatigue as their bodies adjust. Our team at Performance Health & Wellness offers holistic support to manage both adrenal and hormonal health together.
Sleep is essential for adrenal repair. Poor sleep worsens cortisol disruption and delays healing. We help patients at Performance Health & Wellness improve sleep naturally through nutrition, relaxation techniques, and adrenal support strategies.
Yes. Imbalanced cortisol and depleted stress hormones can leave your nervous system overactive, leading to anxiety and panic symptoms. Our functional medicine team addresses this by calming the system with root-cause care and fatigue recovery protocols.
Not necessarily. Stimulants like caffeine can push your already-depleted adrenals harder, worsening symptoms over time. At Performance Health & Wellness, we focus on nourishing, not overloading, the system with targeted support—not quick fixes.

We recommend nutrient-rich, whole foods including quality proteins, healthy fats, leafy greens, and mineral-rich options to support adrenal repair.
