Overproduction of adrenal hormones caused by prolonged stress can

 weaken the immune system. With Adrenal Cleanse, you can nourish and support

 your adrenals with important nutrients..

An important function of the adrenal glands is to help the body handle stress

. The body's metabolic response to stress triggers the production of adrenal hormones

. In order to prepare the body to handle physical, emotional or mental stress

, adrenal hormones:

Speed up the metabolism rate in order to assist the body in coping with stress

Pump more blood to the muscles and brain, making the heart beat faster.

Increase respiration and blood pressure for extra energy.

Increase the metabolism of protein, carbohydrates and fats resulting in more

 energy for the body to utilize.

Activate blood clotting mechanisms to prepare for possible physical injury.

This adrenal action is called the "flight or fight" response which is the body?s reaction

to a perceived threat. It is believed to be a carry over from ancient times when

 human beings had to deal with danger by either staying and fighting or running away.

The body produces adrenaline which speeds up the metabolism rate in order to handle

 stress properly. Once the stress is over, the process quiets down and the adrenals

 function normally again. Modern situations rarely require this "flight or fight" physical reaction,

 however, stress factors like anxiety, fear, overwork, chemical additives and

 preservatives in the diet, lack of sleep, exposure to environmental toxins and over-indulgenc

e of alcohol, caffeine, drugs and smoking can cause adrenal exhaustion.

When stress continues over prolonged periods of time, the adrenal glands use up the

 body's energy and nutrient reserves and may shrink in size. Overproduction of

 adrenal hormones caused by prolonged stress can weaken the immune system and

inhibit the production of white blood cells that protect the body against foreign invasions.

 Adrenal exhaustion can manifest itself in chronic fatigue and illness, often the result of

nutrient deficiencies caused by continued stress.*

Stress management is vital during this stage. A well-balanced diet, vitamin and herbal support,

 exercise and relaxation techniques, all play an important role in maintaining proper functioning

of the adrenal glands.*

Cleanse, Nourish and Support Your Adrenals With Important Nutrients

Adrenal Cleanse™ is scientifically designed to improve and promote adrenal gland activity.*

Vitamin C is utilized by the adrenal glands and prolonged stress can cause a depletion of

 Vitamin C in the tissues. Vitamin C is a necessary nutrient for the manufacture of hormones

by the adrenal glands.*

It plays a critical role in the body's immune system response to stressful situations by increasing

 the body's white blood cells.* White blood cells protect the body from foreign substances by

 producing anti-bodies and T-cells. Ester C is absorbed faster into the blood stream and

 excreted more slowly than regular vitamin C supplements.

The adrenal glands are located just above the kidneys. They are responsible for many

 vital bodily functions including: manufacturing of adrenal hormones, adrenaline and

nor-adrenaline, during stress. producing 28 different hormones. assisting with the digestion

of carbohydrates and fats. regulating minerals and maintaining water balance in the body working

with the thyroid gland to provide and sustain energy levels.
