Catalog \ Medical Conditions \ Adrenal Support
The adrenal glands are located above the kidneys and they produce a variety of different hormones, including sex hormones, androgens ("male" hormones), and aldosterone, which helps maintain the body's salt and potassium balances. Also epinephrine (adrenaline) and norepinepherin (noradrenaline) which are involved in "fight or flight" responses.

Adrenalift™
Adrenalift™ — (tonic) — this proprietary formula is loaded with Maca alkaloids and specifically selected herb complexes that support the healthy function of the adrenals*. Adrenalift™ works by nourishing both the Hypothalamus-Pituitary-Adrenal (HPA) axis (1-maca) and the Sympathetic Nervous System*. (SNS)(2,3,4-oats). It provides tonifying energy through phytonutrients such as carbohydrates, vitamins, minerals, fatty acids, alkaloids, saponins (6-suma) and amino acids*. (maca-5,jatoba-6,astragalus-3,oats-2,3,4).
The synergy of herbs in Adrenalift™ works in unison to aid the body in maintaining homeostasis, the body’s normal systemic balance*. The body responds to physical and mental stressors, the allostatic load, in an attempt to achieve the dynamic equilibrium called allostasis*. The more beneficial ingredients the body has to work with, the easier it is to reach allostasis and ultimately homeostasis.(10)*
Adrenalift™ can be used as a tonic for athletic energy in physical workouts and to facilitate fat metabolism and balance mood swings.*(1, 2, 7, 8, 15) Adrenalift™ can also help the body deal with chronic stress, which has been identified as a factor in many degenerative diseases.*(8-15) The cumulative nature of physical or emotional stress can deplete the adrenal glands, and lead to a condition called hyperadaptosis in which hypothalamic sensitivity to cortisol is diminished by prolonged exposure to cortisol and leads to the chronic hyperactivity of the Hypothalamus-Pituitary-Adrenal Axis.*(7) Adrenalift™ was formulated to protect, tone, and nourish weak or ailing adrenals and support the endocrine system*.
