As we mentioned in our last blog post<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/strong>, something is making your adrenal system work overtime, and more often than not, it\u2019s biochemical and\/or physical stress. These stressors cause the inflammation that\u2019s putting your health at risk. Let\u2019s take a look at a few.<\/p>\n A few blog<\/span> posts<\/span><\/a> <\/span><\/strong>back, we introduced you to Danielle who stacked up three hours in the gym each day but fell flat on results. While her struggle had more to do with undereating and metabolic adaptation, if she took a closer look at her ankles instead of her biceps, she might have picked up a clue. Over-training can cause an inflammatory buildup in the body, manifesting as puffiness. Chances are, when Danielle removed her socks, sports bra, and smartwatch, there was an outline where each of them had rested for her three-hour workout. And had she visited her metabolism doctor, cutting-edge technology could have precisely measured her fluid distribution and confirmed she was over-exercising.<\/p>\n Food allergies and intolerances are on the rise. Research<\/span><\/strong><\/a> shows that over the past 10-15 years, 15 million Americans, including 1 in 13 children, have a food allergy. What\u2019s worse, many people are unaware they suffer from food intolerance because their symptoms vary and often appear hours, or even days, after the food is consumed. So, they keep eating that gluten or drinking that milk, creating a nasty chemical reaction that ultimately damages their adrenals.<\/p>\n You might wonder why your grandparents\u2019 generation didn\u2019t suffer with all these food allergies. Well, you can blame the increased use and production of chemicals in industry and agriculture for that. In the \u201cgood old days,\u201d food wasn\u2019t yet treated with additives, antibiotics, and hormones to help preserve shelf life. While they\u2019ve made life more convenient, they\u2019re ultimately damaging bodily tissue and causing the inflammation that affects your adrenal glands. Add in the toxins we breathe in daily from the production process, and it\u2019s enough to make you want to live on a deserted island.<\/p>\n Instead of packing up and setting sail for Solitary Island, you can take real steps to overcome the stressors that are strong-holding your adrenals. At Twin Cities Metabolism, we can help you make small changes in your daily life to ensure extraordinary results for your health.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" You walked around for years in a sleepy state, unable to lose weight, and feeling cold and puffy\u2014but you finally know why!
