I was complaining to a doctor friend of mine that I felt like I was getting old. My energy level was low. Going for a jog, which I used to enjoy, now felt like a chore. At the end of the day I felt exhausted. I was trying to eat right, exercise regularly but I still needed 6 cups of coffee to get through the day. I was gaining weight despite exercising and eating right. I knew that I had all the symptoms of adrenal burnout (chronic stress) but I just didn’t know what to do about it.
Conventional medicine has very few answers for the patient suffering from chronic stress. The really forward-thinking conventional physicians may suggest something like massage or yoga to help with stress but more often than not they prescribe an anti-anxiety medicine (benzodiazepine) which only blunts the feeling of anxiety but dose not address the real problem which is abnormal cortisol levels.
So I decided to pay a visit to my doctor (yes doctors do go to the doctor). This particular doctor is very knowledgeable on so-called “alternative medicine” and natural supplements. He suggested that I start taking gingko and ginseng. He told me that there were several studies that showed that gingko and ginseng were effective for the symptoms of stress overload that I was experiencing.
I started taking the Siberian Ginseng and Gingko biloba.
These products started improving my symptoms right away. I felt noticeably calmer and more in control of my life. The constant chatter in my mind slowed down and I could deal with situations as they arose. I was multitasking was a champ. I had the energy to do the yard work that I was neglecting. I was able to jog with ease and without counting each step. I felt like there was no end to how far I could go. I called old friends that I hadn’t talked to in years. In short I was feeling like my old self again. Actually I was feeling better than my old self. I was felling like an even younger version of my old self.
Now when I see patients in my medical office complaining of symptoms consistent with adrenal fatigue I suggest these products. My patients experience the same relief that I experienced. My patients love these products.
