 Adrenal Fatigue book by James Wilson March 7, 2010
Diane Blais (Raleigh, North Carolina)
I am about half way through this book and have learned a lot already. I have already made several changes in my diet and lifestyle and I will keep this book on hand to reference after I have finished reading it. Dr. Wilson lays out the causes, impact and treatment in an understandable way. All of the medical professionals I have talked with highly recommend this book and now I understand why.
 Great Resource To Answer Your Questions and to Help the Body Deal with Fatigue and Stress February 14, 2010

Every business person faces stress and fatigue. Every business owner and entrepreneur faces stress and especially in these tough economic times. So - maintaining our health can be a key to being able to continue giving our best to our business, ourselves, our families and our customers.
A few months ago I heard about a medical condition that was new to me. It is adrenal fatigue. This book explains what it is and how we can recover -- our energy, our immune resistance, vitality and our enjoyment of life. That sounds like something we all need to know. Seemed like valuable information to have to maintain our health.
This is some of the content of this book - and it is packed with great information ---
* Part One - Your Adrenal Glands and You
* Part Two - Do I Have Adrenal Fatigue
* Part Three - Helping Yourself Back to Health
* Part Four - Functions of the Adrenal Glands
* Appendices - Glycemic Index and Food Lists
Part One explains how the glands work, what factors in our lives can affect their function (its a huge list), what sort of people have adrenal fatigue and explains how the condition progresses and the symptoms.
Part Two has a questionnaire to see if you have adrenal fatigue and if it is a mild, modest or severe condition. It includes full details about how to read the results. Then something unusual that I really liked is a section to explain how the condition develops in our bodies and our health. There are also details about home tests and lab tests to determine the existence and severity of the condition.
Part Three is full of information about how to treat the problem. From lifestyle changes, the connection between the food we eat and adrenal fatigue - including details about food allergies and sensitive and using supplements. Hormone replacement is also discussed as it relates to adrenal fatigue.
Part Four is full of specific information about the adrenal glands, their function, and much more.
This book is great for anyone that is experiencing any of these conditions --
Tired for no reason
Trouble getting up in the morning
Need caffeine to keep going
Run down and stressed
Craving salt or sugar
Struggling to keep up
Hard time bouncing back from illness or stress
Not having fun
Decreased sex drive
How many entrepreneurs do you know that are dealing with any of these problems? This is the kind of condition that you can manage - I opted to be tested and then got on a daily regiment of supplements to get my body functioning better. So far -so good and it is very easy to do. There is also a wonderful Adrenal Fatigue website to get great preliminary information and to see if there is a practitioner near you -- if you find that you do have adrenal fatigue - I highly recommend getting the book to learn the ins and outs of this condition and how to get your body, your health, your life and your business back to normal.

The author states that most of the people in the United States have adrenal fatigue. This is not something that doctors find by testing. Nothing functions very well without the adrenalin produced by your adrenals.
It is well worth checking out. It takes a bit of reading time and perhaps a purchase of an herbal or glandular remedy and you're off and running with your old vigor!

Great to do business with this vendor. The textbook was what I expected and the condition was as described by the vendor. Shipment was received in a timely manner also. Would have no problems doing business with this vendor again.

You Can't Make a Diagnosis You Don't Think Of December 7, 2009

Where is the border line between health and a disease? According to standard medical diagnosis, it could be a tenth of a point on a scale. Above you're healthy and don't get treated. A tenth of a point lower and you're sick. Doesn't make sense to me. This is the case with adrenal function, those two small glands responsible for your ability to cope.
Some time ago, hypoadrenal - slow adrenal function - was a known medical diagnosis. Today, except for its extreme form, Addison's Disease, it is forgotten. If you go to your doctor feeling tired all the time, along with a series of symptoms defined clearly in this book (thorough questionnaire included), but test results aren't quite bad enough, you'll be told to go home and get enough sleep with the help of some sleep drug. You might be told to take an anti-depressant 'cause it's all in your head.
Since most doctors are ignorant of adrenal fatigue, or are afraid to step out of the box, you must read this book to learn about this common ailment. It is especially important if you are a practitioner of alternative medicine. The knowledge in this book can turn you into a hero, saving the quality of life of some clients. The presentation here is excellent, clear, easily read. The diagnostic questionnaire and other home tests make diagnosis easy. The lifestyle changes include diet, nutritional supplements and herbs for the body, as well as lots of wise councel for the soul. All in all, an easy 5-star book.
