Hey�s it Angela Rocchio, founder of heal your adrenal fatigue.com and you�re watching
adrenal fatigue tv In this video I am going to share with you
how to eat an adrenal healing diet which includes not only
what foods to eat, but what foods to avoid.
And I am going to tell you how to avoid a very common mistake that many adrenal fatigue
sufferers make that further exhausts the adrenals, making it impossible to heal.
So stay tuned.
Chances are you have some anxiety when it comes to eating.
It's confusing, right?
People say go gluten free, vegan, stop eating sugar,
go Paleo.
There is so much advice out there and sometimes it's conflicting.
That�s because healing from this condition is not a one-size fits all kind of thing.
That is why we recommend you get professional support
to follow a diet that is customized to your body and your lifestyle.
I'm going to give you a big DIY tip on how to do this, so stay tuned.
We will start with Foods that Nourish The Adrenals
1) Foods High in protein and fat Fats and proteins break down slowly, so they
provide fuel for hours after they are eaten. and with blood sugar balance being an issue
for AF sufferers, proteins and fats are helpful to keep blood sugar levels stable
which results in more balanced cortisol and epinephrine levels.
2) Eat nutrient-dense, whole foods.
Not getting enough nutrients is a common issue for adrenal fatigue sufferers.
Often times this is due to poor nutrient absorption.
Poor nutrient absorption can the result of years of or chronic poor digestion and/or
other obstacles like leaky gut, parasites, candida overgrowth.
The more nutrient dense foods you eat the better chance your body
has at absorbing all the nutrients you need for healing.
3) Eat fresh, local preferably organic, and Non GMO foods
Choosing high quality meats, poultry, dairy (grass-fed, pastured-raised), fruits and
vegetables helps you avoid preservatives, added hormones, artificial colors, dyes, and
chemicals.
These foreign and unnatural substances are harder to process and therefore
puts more stress on the body.
Eating organic and ideally locally grown (very fresh) foods
ensures maximum nutrient density.
4) Incorporate Good Salt Into Your Diet If you don't have high blood pressure it's
okay to give into your cravings for salty foods.
Make sure you're choosing the right kind of salt.
(Learn more about good salt and how to incorporate it into your diet in this
video).
Your salt cravings are most likely related to low levels of a steroid hormone called
aldosterone.
This hormone is produced by the adrenal glands and has a central role in
regulating blood pressure.
When cortisol goes up, aldosterone goes down.
5) Choose Low-Glycemic Fruits Blood sugar balance is an issue for many adrenal
fatigue sufferers, so go light on fruits especially in the morning.
When you do eat fruits think berries, green apples, kiwi,
cantaloupe and stone fruits like peaches and plums.
Avoid bananas, grapes, dried fruit and oranges.
6) Eat Whole Grains If you eat grains, allow whole grains to be
the main source of your carbohydrates.
This doesn't just mean whole wheat pasta noodles
or whole wheat bread.
Eat the whole grain.
For example, steel cut oats, quinoa, millet, brown rice.
Foods That Exhaust The Adrenals 1) Processed foods
Avoid processed foods as best you can, typically these are foods that come in a box, bag
or package.
Why because they contain less nutrients than whole foods as typically have
lots of preservatives and additives that can stress the body and the adrenals.
2) Stimulants Avoid stimulants like coffee which create
artificial energy followed by a "crash".
Keep sugar and alcohol to a minimum.
3) Foods Your Body is Sensitive/Allergic or Intolerant to
It is important that you eliminate these foods as soon as possible.
When you eat these foods it triggers an allergic reaction and
creates an inflammatory response.
This puts stress on the adrenal because the adrenals
play a key role in allergic reactions.
They produce the hormone cortisol.
Cortisol happens to be in charge of reducing inflammation.
that is why many people with adrenal fatigue have more allergies or their allergies seem
to get worse.
Inflammation can also cause fatigue, headaches, joint and muscle pain, mood swings,
sleep problems and cognitive difficulties.
Not sure what foods you're sensitive to?
Let me give you a tip, This is the same tip I promised to share with you about how
you can eat an adrenal fatigue diet that is more customized to you)
Do a little trial and error.
This will help you identify food sensitivities or allergies.
Here�s how to do this 1) Keep a log for 1 week of what you eat and
how you feel.
Look for things like: How long your energy lasts after eating a
meal?
Do you have digestive distress?
Do you feel hungry even after you�ve just eaten?
At the end of this video I am giving away a free gift to help make this step super easy,
so stay tuned.
Remember Your body is a great messenger system; we just need to make sure we are
listening.
This is a great start.
And no pun intended here, but Trust Your Gut.
You know your body better than anyone.
If you suspect you have a sensitivity to something, definitely explore it.
Wondering, how and where to start eliminating?
Start with one food group at a time so you can be sure it's really an issue.
If you suspect you're allergic to multiple food groups start
with the one you believe you are most sensitive to.
Start eliminating that food from your diet as soon as possible.
Get support from an expert to find great alternatives, so it doesn't have to feel so
overwhelming.
We�d love to help you with that.
Stay with this plan of elimination for 4-6 weeks.
Note any changes in your digestion, mood, energy level, skin, etc.
And please remember this is only temporary.
Most of our clients can go back to eating these foods with no issues after they have
healed their adrenal fatigue.
So now you know what to eat and what NOT to eat on an adrenal fatigue diet.
Just one more thing...
This is Just as important as WHAT you eat, it�s WHEN you eat
When you're busy, stressed out and lacking energy it's easy to skip or delay meals.
This is not a good idea with adrenal fatigue.
Skipping or delaying meals does the following 1.
Slows down your metabolism, giving your body the message that it needs to conserve
energy by storing calories as fat 2.
Causes your blood sugar to drop.
This puts stress on your adrenal glands because they
are in charge of maintaining your blood sugar levels and they have to release more
cortisol and adrenaline to maintain the body's normal functioning.
3.
And finally, when you fast for several hours, it does NOT allow your body to produce
glucose which is the primary source of energy for your brain and your nervous
system.
When you eat, the body breaks down your food and produces glucose.
So when you don�t eat, the glucose in your brain
decreases, which means less energy.
This lack of glucose impairs your concentration, focus,
mood and memory.
