Being a nurse for 30 years, I have to say you did a pretty darn good job explaining things for a non-medical person. Keep studying. I think you give a lot of inspiration to those with issues needing to be addressed. Thanks for all of your hard work and willingness to share with others. You are a blessing.
I don't think they explained it in this detail in nursing school... A1C was okay until 7.0 when I was in school and so when my 6.1 got flagged and I got put in the pre-diabetic category I flipped out. It is indeed a great level of info on this video!!!
Ooff, me too. I thought only pros could overtrain. I was working a startup and kicking butt in the gym... but then i noticed i wasnt recovering and felt like i had jet lag. So i paused caffeine and the gym, started rhodiola and l-theanine and b vitamins. Had some improvement and some setbacks. I sleep decent. Abt 8-9 hours tho i often wake up for a bit in the middle of the night.
@@Truerealism747 I have finally lost 32 pounds, have now 2 thyroid meds but am able to sleep. Menopause is under control with the patch. What seemed to help was stress control. I have managed to control my stress through prayer, meditation and releasing my worries. My thyroid is now working at optimum my doc said yesterday. My diet I changed to low fat, gluten free, protein but very little meat. My doc said whatever your doing keep doing because I cured myself from autoimmune disease that I never was given meds for. She said I’m a puzzle so keep doing what I’m doing.
This carb cycling Idea seems absurd to me. I was at the stage where I was sleeping a lot throughout the day at almost every 2 hour intervals. Not being able to study due to persistent somnolence made me miserable. Only when I started doing keto and fasting, I started feeling great. When I tried cycling back carbs I started feeling sleepy again. No processsed foods, only rice and potatoes. Thomas Delauer helped me in this journey with his youtube channel "Thomas Delauer". I highly recommend him. Though I was fasting too much in the beginning and my cravings went up and hit a plateau in fatloss, listening to my body and reducing the frequency of fasting, not fasting in the proliferative/luteal phase of my menstrual cycle., taking enough nutrients(wheatgrass powder, mineral supplements and organ meats), adaptogens(ashwagandha, rhodiola, holy basil) and nootropics(lions mane) helped me recover. I feel like I have reborn again in a new and healthy body!
Thank you for sharing this video! I have had a lot issues with being tired and have had memory issues. Your videos about having your heck in check have really helped. I was so strict on THM that I tried not to have any heavy carbs. You encouraged me to eat those no no carbs and once I did, a lot of my energy returned. I'm still trying to get myself in order and am seeing a doctor to see what other help she can give me. Thank you a lot for your videos they are filled with information that is valuable!
Thank you for this video. I have adrenal issues. Stage 4 at one point. My father has them my sister and brother. Now my daughter who is 6 is exhibiting symptoms. It's a life sentence for sure. X
I was not aware, to be honest, they have the adrenal fatigue decline according to "Stage 1," "Stage 2," & so on @Franchesca Pearse, but one thing I do know is that Christ Jesus the Almighty still heals &, therefore, adrenal problems do not need to be "a life sentence." Be hopeful, & prayerful to Him. Be blessed. 🙏🏼
Don’t do HIIT if you gave adrenal fatigue. That much is for sure. Just slow steady. Like nice paced walks in a fead state. Don’t over due exercise. :)).
Hi there, thank you for your message. 2 years ago I suffered a mental breakdown/burnout and was hospitalized for near suicide. It was from being over worked and heart broken. I am 29 now. Can I fully recover? Thank you. I am seeing a phsycologist and phsyciatrist, just terrified about going back into work
Addressing deep psychological issues is really important for managing stress load. Just stay off the pharmaceuticals if you can, that will do more damage.
Long time! I'm just throw this out there. If you are interested, I would highly recommend finding an AO Scan practitioner if you want a one- size- all solution. Message me about it
I was recently (Jan 2017) diagnosed with adrenal fatigue. I thank you for your information and books. The dr put me on DHEA 10 for the adrenal fatigue but none of the other. I've also been plagued with VERTIGO. Yuck.
rich one Thank you for asking. My vertigo was helped with my chiropractor & massage therapist with ear candling. I cannot rule out other causes like blood sugar or adrenal fatigue tho. Right now, I am fine. I just had my 3 month fasting blood work on Friday so I am waiting to get results from that. Thanks again.
I have been battling AF for years. I also have 4 kids and I crash after pregnancy. I took the saliva test and my cortisol was low all day. My doctor had me drinking a tincture of nasty herbs. I feel so much better now and take an adrenal supplement, b- complex, iron, vit d, and a thyroid support supplement. My last baby is 2 and I'm still struggling to get the weight off.
@@ivankazeleznjak4825 I'm not sure, she got the tincture from a herbalist in Sedona, AZ. Dr. Stephanie Stark at Blue Oak Clinic in Tucson, AZ was my doctor. I actually couldn't keep the tincture down after a while. I would throw up after I swallowed it. I currently use an AmpCoil and ozone therapy.
Is there’s anyone who has experienced change in muscle tone ? My muscles have lost tone , they have become flaccid… got myself checked for all the muscular autoimmune disease but all the tests came out normal
I heard that this can be from adrenal fatigue as well, it involves the upper arm muscles and the thigh muscles. Mine are like that..even when I had strong muscles in my calves and forearms, my upper limbs were/are soft. I don’t remember what causes it...try Dr.Berg’s channel, he has a lot of good info.
Yes, absolutely. And recently learned that high cortisol causes the liver to begin breaking our muscles down into glucose to use for energy. Which makes sense as high cortisol is meant to happen only when we're in danger and need quick energy to run or fight.
I normally wouldn't watch such a long video but this was informative with a lot of good info. You've done a lot of research. Thanks for sharing it. I didn't realize there was so much space between your oldest girl and the younger ones. I was five when my sister was born then another soon after.
Interesting. I have the mthfr too and think I have adrenal fatigue. I’m constantly unreasonably tired and I generally wake up feeling horrible. I’ll have to look into all this!
I’m in crisis this summer 2022 with high blood pressure. Doctor has done blood tests which showed high cortisol and aldosterone levels. Aldosterone regulates potassium sodium balance. I’m also battling spikes in blood sugar. I was diagnosed with Hashimotos thyroid five years ago. I think my blood pressure issues started about 7 years ago but didn’t know what the problem was. Six years ago I developed rheumatoid arthritis and reversed it 90 percent with a plant based whole food diet with zero fats and oils. I also was diagnosed with atherosclerosis last year. So having animal protein is problematic even though I can see that carbs have become an issue. In fact I feel like I should avoid carbs at dinner time but that’s when I really want them! Suggestions would be welcome.
Thank you for sharing your experience 😊. Wonderful video with tons of good information. Your fortunate to have what it sounds like a competent and caring doctor.
Now that you are doing Keto, what do you think of the Adrenal reset? I was doing keto without success and realizing I’ve got serious adrenal healing needed.
There's not much difference between conventional doctors and red/back spiders. Once you're in their little leeching office you'll be webbed and narcotised like a restrained little fly who may live for another day if there's bulkier bugs crawling and kicking the Pharma's silky web. : )
Yeah, that's my experience as well, any time I visit doctor's office. Most people just take life by believing doctors, but I wonder if any of supplements, for example, actually work. I'm pretty sure most of the stuff we buy at the drugstore do nothing.
Just bought the book.I'm in the crashed stage. I'm surprised that he claims that we can recover in a couple of months in this stage because everywhere else says 1-2 years.
Yes, I have the eye thing they feel so strange and you would think they would be bloodshot and sleep issues like hard to fall asleep, no deep sleep, waking, and feeling exhausted in the morning. Going to get the book. How about you, any improvement?
I have the eye issue, too. No one mentions it, so I’m glad I found your comment. I can usually sleep well, but will sometimes wake up and have trouble falling back to sleep.
i was wondering do u take stuff from a doctor, i would like everything to be natural, the more videos i watch i believe i suffer from this, i workout all the time eat super healthy and i havnt lost weight in yrs, even my doctor doesnt understand always sleepy dizzy headaches anxiety and panic attacks.my weight is a huge thing too
Oh my goodness, I recently had bloodwork done and our levels on everything were almost exactly the same. My doctor put me on a black current herbal supplement for adrenal fatigue. It has helped me feel so much better. Hopefully the blood work changes as for the good with adrenal support. I too have MTHFR. I wonder if that plays a role in all of this.
@@DivaC85 Does Adrenal Fatique show up on blood work or lab work from a doctor. Or do I need to something else for that. I think I have Adrenal Fatigue really bad because every day feels like I'm dying and like I'm going to pass out and the brain fog is really bad.
How were your adrenal hormones? DHEA, Cortisol, or progesterone? My vit d and all of the ones I mentioned were low. I had a health crash so I can’t walk or anything right now. I will get the book! Thanks
Hi Alexis. Did you get the book and follow it? How did you go with it? Did it help? I just read it last week. I’m a bit concerned that the crashed level is not crashed enough for me as I took the quiz and scored in the 80’s and I would have been at this level for a number of years now. I’m wishing there was a Crashed and Burned level lol. I know my DHEA has been tanked for about 3 years now but haven’t tested the others for a while. Last time I tried to do a 4 point salivary cortisol test I couldn’t generate enough saliva to fill the vials so I’ve kinda given up on that one! I hope you’re doing better now
@@moniquem783 Hello, yes i am feeling better but still not 100%. I did not get the book lol. I learned a lot on my own and though my holistic doctor and also through Jaden on youtube. I am almost better and i know i will be completely healed by the end of this year. Hope all is well with you! Take care
@@Amk0776 I’m so glad you’re feeling better! And that you can see that total wellness is on the horizon! That’s exciting!! I hadn’t actually come across Jaden. I’ve just looked him up and will watch lots of his videos. Thank you for mentioning him! I have started implementing some of the ideas in the book. Just slowly slowly, figuring out how to add carbs to each meal after years of avoiding carbs. I ordered some extra supplements which just arrived this week. I’m being very careful not to overwhelm myself. I’m still really really bad, and yet I’ve managed to get a couple of things done around the house that have been on my to do list for ages, like a year or more! I did them very slowly and I took lots of breaks and rested a lot, but I got them done. They are things that any normal person would have done in 20 minutes and each of them was my entire day, but that’s still a really good sign that I’m on the right track. My mum called last night and I told her I’d done those 2 things and of course she offered to come and help next time I’m doing something. Lovely that she wants to help, but I’ve learned that when she’s here helping I push through and keep going when I should rest, plus we talk and that takes more energy, and then I crash after she leaves and I can’t afford to do that yet. I need to be very careful. There’s some hope now though 😊
@@moniquem783 Yes, he can really help guide you through the different phases. You seem to be in phase 1-2 still. When i was in those early stages i ate very frequently (every 2 hrs) and i usually had rice, ground chicken, veggies. Greek yogurt with no sugar before bed every night. I also took minimal supplements and still take the same ones to this day. I also made myself a pink salt drink every morning. Also found out what my body was depleted of and took those supplements as well. I went and had my hormones retested every 3-6 months. By 1 year my hormones were all back to normal. I cut out all processed sugar and white bread as well and that seemed to really help. Also took cortisol manager, magnesium, vit d, probiotic (NO VIT B), no caffeine, nothing to stimulate you... often times talking would also take a lot out of me- getting too excited would be hard too and too angry :( I drank tulsi sweet rose tea twice a day and chamomile tea before bed. Also - meditation is GREAT! Now that i am at the later stages i can take ashwagnda but i would not recommend that until you are stronger.
I know you are now leftover, wondering how you find it for your adrenals vs dr christiansens recommendations? I was carnivore and while my blood sugars were more stable, my sleep still bad and my t3 and t4 dropped below normal and histamine issues flared again. When I eat carbs my moods are so I n down unless I eat every 2 hours.
Hi. I think I am suffering with some of these things. My main symptoms are weakness, abnormal sleep pattern, liver function is high and worse one of all is that I have to eat something every 2 to 21/2 hours or else I feel like am going to pass out or something bad is going to happen to me. I have had a blood test for diabetes but it came out normal. I am so confuse as my doctor doesn’t understand me so he’s referred me to see a gastroenterologist about my liver. Can anyone give me some advice on this. By the way I think I have leaky gut so am on a gluten free dairy free and sugar free diet.
Yes please stay away from dairy and sugar. It sounds like you have adrenal fatigue and the adrenal glands are causing your digestion issues. Your diet is very important right now. Vegetables,healthy proteins and good fats should be what you are eating. If you can handle a clove of finely chopped raw garlic and sprinkle/hide in food (with cool water near to drink). Many times I do the garlic alone, without food so I can clean the lining of my stomach to stop the leaky gut. I won't describe what I see when I go to the bathroom. I'd be doing so much better and probably well again if I wasn't such a sugar fiend. Sleep is HUGE. You want recover unless you dedicate yourself to going to bed early. When you are in recovery faze it is advised to go to bed at 9pm. No later than 9:30. This is a step that can't be negotiated. Your recovery all depends on getting the GOOD SLEEP at the RIGHT TIME for as many nights as it takes for your adrenals to recover. So these are just a couple of bits of advice. Check for more details from people made their recovery continue to this day. One of the people is a guy who does videos under the name Health Recovery, he has a lot of videos talking about how he was so ill and is now well.
it seems unreal- one gets sick, goes to the doctor and gets proper diagnosis and the protocol. i ve been struggling for 8 years and no doctor tod me i have adrenal fatigue though it is really eviden. threy put me only on sleeping pills for insomnia and antidepressants for my exhaustion, but i am not depressed, i just feel extremely tired all day and then cant sleep at night, tired and wired..unbelivable how some peopel cant get help for years, and some people are lucky to get help within a year.. and i am not the only one..
I am so sorry, instead of being happy i got so frustrated after watching your video...I was on proper diet for years, infrared sauna, coffee enemas, all possible supplements, metal detox, homeopathy, ozone IV, your name it. maybe because when one is on a late stage- it is too hard to get out of it. If only there were more doctors like yours- it really sounds surrealistic to me- that just going to the right doctor and getting help is so easy and does happen in the life of some people. what happened to you is probably somthing natural for you, but most people never get any help for years, ,any years. majority. so many people are on the heavy drugs just because nobody even cared to check their hormons. I am so tired of being on all possible diets- Nutritional Balancing, paleo, keto that now i just eat sugar and gluten, because i got so desperate that nothing really helps. I know i need to start again and hope more...maybe you are just a better person than me that you were so lucky. i hate doctors now. i would not go to anyone ever. now trying on my own.
@@yuppers1 that is the point, usually one does not find the right doctor..and functional medicine doctors are all different too. One can search for the right doctor for decades..
@@Miguel-st9bd yeah. I was bed bound for two years. Couldn't leave the house for years. Follow the Medical medium protocol and rest. Deep deep rest. Also follow this YT channel: "Health Recovery". He also healed %100.
Hi Nilli. Did you get reactive hypoglycaemia when you were having adrenal issues? If so, How did you stabilise it? I just bought the adrenal reset diet based on your recommendation. Waiting for it to arrive.
can someone please help me i gained 20 pounds in 6 months after i quit smoking and was eating less than i was before hand they diagnosed me with adrenal fatigue. what i want to know is if i have been following the diet with only complex carbs and it’s been 6 months how long will it take to start seeing some weight loss
There’s too many variables to be able to answer that. Just continue listening to your body. If it’s healing, you are on the right track. Healing can take years, so be patient with yourself.
If it’s actually due to adrenal fatigue, then it should heal itself as your body heals. Electrolytes have helped me a ton. Helps your body hold onto the water your drink for one.
If Adrenal Fatigue is your main issue I'd probably recommend The Adrenal Reset Diet book. For overall women's health I think the Adrenal Thyroid Revolution. :)
@@meekellassidddiq4608 Buy yourself some progesterone cream and apply it to your thin skin areas 2x a day during the luteal phase i.e. days 14 -26 if youre not in menopause yet. You'll feel amazing. Just remember you need to apply enough, especially if your'e on the heavier side.

I’m still really really bad, and yet I’ve managed to get a couple of things done around the house that have been on my to do list for ages, like a year or more! I did them very slowly and I took lots of breaks and rested a lot, but I got them done. They are things that any normal person would have done in 20 minutes and each of them was my entire day, but that’s still a really good sign that I’m on the right track. My mum called last night and I told her I’d done those 2 things and of course she offered to come and help next time I’m doing something. Lovely that she wants to help, but I’ve learned that when she’s here helping I push through and keep going when I should rest, plus we talk and that takes more energy, and then I crash after she leaves and I can’t afford to do that yet. I need to be very careful. There’s some hope now though 😊
@@moniquem783 Yes, he can really help guide you through the different phases. You seem to be in phase 1-2 still. When i was in those early stages i ate very frequently (every 2 hrs) and i usually had rice, ground chicken, veggies. Greek yogurt with no sugar before bed every night. I also took minimal supplements and still take the same ones to this day. I also made myself a pink salt drink every morning. Also found out what my body was depleted of and took those supplements as well. I went and had my hormones retested every 3-6 months. By 1 year my hormones were all back to normal. I cut out all processed sugar and white bread as well and that seemed to really help. Also took cortisol manager, magnesium, vit d, probiotic (NO VIT B), no caffeine, nothing to stimulate you... often times talking would also take a lot out of me- getting too excited would be hard too and too angry :( I drank tulsi sweet rose tea twice a day and chamomile tea before bed. Also - meditation is GREAT! Now that i am at the later stages i can take ashwagnda but i would not recommend that until you are stronger.
@@moniquem783 I also update my progress on this video a lot lol ruclips.net/video/-dnfmRYksOA/видео.html
I couldn't find New York workout.
Was you doing intense exercise during recovery??
Glad i found your video. Thanks for sharing. Very helpful
This was fantastic. Thank you for the resources you proivded and sharing your story!
Great explanation! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks, Nili! Very interesting and helpful. :)
you're glowing
Can you do a what I eat in a day on the Adrenal diet? I started following you for THM, but I'd really like to know what recipes you use. God bless
Hi, what does THM stand for?
@@karenc.7728 Trim Healthy Momma. They have a RUclips channel, a website, and other social media.
What kind of bloodwork you need to see if you have an autoimune disease?
How long did you heal?
Holy shit i have the same symptoms even the jolting and everything u explained!
I know you are now leftover, wondering how you find it for your adrenals vs dr christiansens recommendations? I was carnivore and while my blood sugars were more stable, my sleep still bad and my t3 and t4 dropped below normal and histamine issues flared again. When I eat carbs my moods are so I n down unless I eat every 2 hours.
Really good video
Can I ask how did you check your fasting blood sugar please?? Thanks for a great video
Do you think you got symptoms again bc of the exercise you do bc I can’t really do any intensity exercise yet I have regular energy
Thank you for sharing! You are awesome 🙏💕
Hi. I think I am suffering with some of these things. My main symptoms are weakness, abnormal sleep pattern, liver function is high and worse one of all is that I have to eat something every 2 to 21/2 hours or else I feel like am going to pass out or something bad is going to happen to me. I have had a blood test for diabetes but it came out normal. I am so confuse as my doctor doesn’t understand me so he’s referred me to see a gastroenterologist about my liver. Can anyone give me some advice on this. By the way I think I have leaky gut so am on a gluten free dairy free and sugar free diet.
Yes please stay away from dairy and sugar. It sounds like you have adrenal fatigue and the adrenal glands are causing your digestion issues.
Your diet is very important right now. Vegetables,healthy proteins and good fats should be what you are eating.
If you can handle a clove of finely chopped raw garlic and sprinkle/hide in food (with cool water near to drink). Many times I do the garlic alone, without food so I can clean the lining of my stomach to stop the leaky gut. I won't describe what I see when I go to the bathroom.
I'd be doing so much better and probably well again if I wasn't such a sugar fiend.
Sleep is HUGE. You want recover unless you dedicate yourself to going to bed early. When you are in recovery faze it is advised to go to bed at 9pm. No later than 9:30. This is a step that can't be negotiated. Your recovery all depends on getting the GOOD SLEEP at the RIGHT TIME for as many nights as it takes for your adrenals to recover.
So these are just a couple of bits of advice. Check for more details from people made their recovery continue to this day.
One of the people is a guy who does videos under the name Health Recovery, he has a lot of videos talking about how he was so ill and is now well.
it seems unreal- one gets sick, goes to the doctor and gets proper diagnosis and the protocol. i ve been struggling for 8 years and no doctor tod me i have adrenal fatigue though it is really eviden. threy put me only on sleeping pills for insomnia and antidepressants for my exhaustion, but i am not depressed, i just feel extremely tired all day and then cant sleep at night, tired and wired..unbelivable how some peopel cant get help for years, and some people are lucky to get help within a year.. and i am not the only one..
I am so sorry, instead of being happy i got so frustrated after watching your video...I was on proper diet for years, infrared sauna, coffee enemas, all possible supplements, metal detox, homeopathy, ozone IV, your name it. maybe because when one is on a late stage- it is too hard to get out of it. If only there were more doctors like yours- it really sounds surrealistic to me- that just going to the right doctor and getting help is so easy and does happen in the life of some people. what happened to you is probably somthing natural for you, but most people never get any help for years, ,any years. majority. so many people are on the heavy drugs just because nobody even cared to check their hormons. I am so tired of being on all possible diets- Nutritional Balancing, paleo, keto that now i just eat sugar and gluten, because i got so desperate that nothing really helps. I know i need to start again and hope more...maybe you are just a better person than me that you were so lucky. i hate doctors now. i would not go to anyone ever. now trying on my own.
elena-z you should get a hair mineral analysis
Anell Hernandez wait, wasn't that one officially debunked as a scam already?
It looks like she went to a functional/integrative doctor or something. It is a whole other approach to medicine than the traditional doctor.
@@yuppers1 that is the point, usually one does not find the right doctor..and functional medicine doctors are all different too. One can search for the right doctor for decades..
You can heal from adrenal fatigue %100
Mert Özkan how
How?
@@Miguel-st9bd Follow the Medical Medium protocol. And deep rest.
@@karagumruk7330 you were suffering from it?
@@Miguel-st9bd yeah. I was bed bound for two years. Couldn't leave the house for years. Follow the Medical medium protocol and rest. Deep deep rest. Also follow this YT channel: "Health Recovery". He also healed %100.
Hi Nilli. Did you get reactive hypoglycaemia when you were having adrenal issues? If so, How did you stabilise it? I just bought the adrenal reset diet based on your recommendation. Waiting for it to arrive.
I didn't ❤️
@@IndigoNili Thanks 🙏 Struggling
can someone please help me i gained 20
pounds in 6 months after i quit smoking and was eating less than i was before hand they diagnosed me with adrenal fatigue. what i want to know is if i have been following the diet with only complex carbs and it’s been 6 months how long will it take to start seeing some weight loss
There’s too many variables to be able to answer that. Just continue listening to your body. If it’s healing, you are on the right track. Healing can take years, so be patient with yourself.
I wondering if quitting smoking creates an issue with the adrenals. Like the body is more stressed after quitting.
Thank you for this video!!!
Thank you for this video.
By adrenal fatigue do you mean you have low cortisol levels?
You and Aviva have the same hairdoo !
Hi. Thanks. Can I heal my adrenals without losing weight? I'm already skinny.
Of course!
My cortisol seems to be too much in the morning in the morning
Do u have offbalance feeling?
But what are u eating to lose ?
how can i recover frequent urination due to adrenal fatigue ?
If it’s actually due to adrenal fatigue, then it should heal itself as your body heals. Electrolytes have helped me a ton. Helps your body hold onto the water your drink for one.
Saw palmetto! Life changing. I used to go to the bathroom 6 times in the night, now I'm down to 1. Will also make your hair grow like crazy
aldosterone harmon is produced by adrenal gland harmons
"Harmons" lol
Cole Robinson ~ Snake Diet. Cures everything. Cole is going to put all the health gurus out of business. 🤣
What is the mtfr mutation?
Did you nurse?
What should I eat for my adrenals
Licorice
@@muhammadzaidhasan1426 No, pizza and beer...
Have you heard of CPSD.
What b complex r you taking?
the sample meals at the beginning allow about 1000 calories a day. Not ok. Your body can not sustain this .
If you had to buy just one of the books which would be the best.
If Adrenal Fatigue is your main issue I'd probably recommend The Adrenal Reset Diet book. For overall women's health I think the Adrenal Thyroid Revolution. :)
Thank you
I will thank you.
The reason women 'crash' after pregnancy is bc your progesterone levels crash post partum.
Exactly I had a baby 17 months ago and I feel terrible
No one ever told me this!!! It could have helped years ago.
@@meekellassidddiq4608 Buy yourself some progesterone cream and apply it to your thin skin areas 2x a day during the luteal phase i.e. days 14 -26 if youre not in menopause yet.
You'll feel amazing.
Just remember you need to apply enough, especially if your'e on the heavier side.
my doctor doesn't seem to be a doctor either !
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
