| Adrenal Glands |
Adrenal Gland Weakness.
- Low adrenal gland (medulla) function causes low blood pressure from inefficient neurotransmitters and starts a process of nerve disorders, breathing problems, and heart arrhythmias.
- Low adrenal gland (cortex) function causes insufficient steroid production leading to acidosis and inflammation.
In Females:
- Ovarian cancer, breast cancer, cervical cancer, uterine cancer
- Ovarian cysts
- Conception problems
- Miscarriage
- Menstrual bleeding problems
- Uterine fibroids
- Endometriosis
- Fibromyalgia
- Fibrocystic breasts
- Osteoporosis
- Unchecked inflammation
In Males…
- Prostate cancer
- Erection problems
- Testosterone dominance
- Prostatitis
In Females and Males…
- Scleroderma
- Bursitis and arthritis
- Spinal and pelvic inflammation
- Lower back weakness
- Sciatica
- Diabetes
- Kidney and bladder weakness
You can begin to see how inflammation is developed in the body through diet and hormone imbalance (from glandular weakness) This inflammation leads to tissue failure and tissue death. This is why it is essential that our endocrine gland system functions properly and remain in balance. When the endocrine glands become hypo (under) or hyper (over,) active this creates many disease symptoms.
Our Adrenals are extremely important! This is because they produce neurotransmitters, which are essential for brain and nerve function. These include epinephrine (adrenaline), norepinephrine, and dopamine. All these affect our sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system (the two divisions of the autonomic nervous system), turning nerve responses on or off. This affects almost all tissues in the body, including heart, vascular system, intestines, skin and kidneys.
Low blood pressure (systolic under 118) is always an indicator of adrenal weakness, and at least %50 of high blood pressure cases reflect adrenal (medulla) weakness as well. A healthy blood pressure is 120-130 systolic (top number) and 60-70 diastolic (bottom number).
The second important part about the adrenal glands is in the cortex (outer portion) that produces cortical-type steroids or hormones. These hormones include corticoids (cortisol and cortisone for carbohydrate utilization); aldosterone (regulating our electrolytes, sodium and potassium.; estradiol (an estrogen); and progestins (including progesterone).
Many of these steroids act as anti-inflammatory compounds, which are vital to combating anti-inflammatory processes within the body. These steroids affect muscle, nerve, gastrointestinal and cardiovascular tissues.
Cortisol aids in the conversion of fat and protein to glucose. Also cortisol is one of the adrenal glands (glucocorticoid) steroids that mediates inflammation. Catabolic breakdown processes in the body generally cause acidosis, hense inflammation in your body especially the GI tract. This damage stimulates the adrenal glands to increase cortisol production, which can cause further inflammation.
The Cortisol is what effects the blood pressure. It affects the muscles, heart, and it can also lower the TSH further affecting your thyroid hormone production. Our thyroid is responsible for our calcium utilization. Caffeine soda, and tea (the tea leaf kind with caffeine) enhances the production of excessive cortisol. Because of that cortisol also affects the aging process, promotes osteoporosis, etc..
These problems especially inflammation which in another word is really just acidosis is caused by a lifetime or long period of time of consuming acidosis promoting foods mentioned above. Acidosis and inflammation is essentially the same thing!
Remember your body can eliminate the toxins, acid and reduce or eliminate the inflammation but you have to allow it too. You have to do the things necessary to help your body and buckle up for the ride. In my opinion using medications, having surgery or procedures WILL NOT GET TO THE ROOT OF THE PROBLEM! ACIDOSIS AND INFLAMMATION WILL REMAIN AND YOU WILL CONTINUE DOWN A ROAD OF MORE ILLNESS NOT LESS.
Doctors don’t know what I am telling you and what I have learned from Dr. Morse. This is not in the realm of medicine, which only treats symptoms, but not the cause of the symptoms. This information is in the realm of the science of how our bodies works and what our symptoms tell us. Listen to your body and read your symptoms.
If you think you have Adrenal Weakness you may want to get started healing and strengthening right away. To get you started by reading An Introduction to Fruitarian Living.
A must have book!
