cortisol to maintain it. To rescue the body from death the body pumps adrenaline, this can raise blood sugar but can also cause acute or severe anxiety. I also find that most patients will turn to sugary snacks for a quick burst of energy but later end up feeling extremely tired, nervous and jittery at the same time as their blood sugar drops. Traditional doctors may treat these symptoms with anti-anxiety medications, which leave the patient feeling even more lethargic. In the remainder of the chapter, I discuss some of the common causes of adrenal fatigue syndrome, the symptoms that accompany it, common diagnostics testing methods to uncover it and some of the best natural ways to treat this very common syndrome.
