The adrenal gland is the first stop in repairing health, especially depression. If a patient does not have the proper hormone functioning they will feel tired and depressed. Adrenal fatigue has received alot more attention in the last few years, thank heavens, and some doctors recommend large doses of vitamins, minerals, herbs, and glandular supplements. All of these things are helpful, however a patient with depression needs added care in diagnosing and treating. More specific amino acids will be helpful in treating a patient with fatigue and depression. My patients know I will not throw out suggestions here on what to take. Each patient is individual and requires and should demand individualized treatment. Testing of the adrenals can be done quickly in the office or more involved with urine and saliva testing. A patient with adrenal exhaustion and depression should notice a positive change within three weeks, not three months. Come talk to me about this or any topic today.
