HyrSelf Functional Medicine Adrenal Rehabilitation

Adrenal Rehabilitation

Unlock the secrets of Adrenal Rehabilitation with simplified protocols and targeted support models. Dive into identifying underlying physiological mechanisms behind adrenal dysfunction. Explore potential barriers to rehabilitation, from anemia to emotional stress, and empower yourself with knowledge to overcome them. Discover how Divalent Metal Transporter 1 plays a role in iron regulation and toxic element absorption, shedding light on additional challenges in adrenal health.

Signs and Symptoms

Our Adrenal Stress Index can be helpful if you experience:

  • Chronic stress and stress-related health conditions
  • Fatigue or lack of energy
  • Anxiety or depression
  • Irritability or mood swings
  • Insomnia, sleep disturbances or difficulty waking
  • Difficulty losing weight
  • Poor memory or difficulty retaining information
  • Muscle and joint pain or weakness
  • Easy bruising or excessive stretch marks
  • Hypertension

Mechanisms that prevent adrenal rehabilitation:

The use of simplified protocols and models to support adrenal disorders are self-limiting. Adrenal dysfunction is always secondary to physiological mechanisms that need to be identified.1Case Studies & Principles, D. Kharrazian, 90-91

  • Portal Hypertension
  • Factors causing Adrenal Uncoupling
  • Anemia
  • Insulin Resistance
  • Low Cholesterol
  • Non-Resolving Immune Responses
  • Splanchnoptosis
  • Surgical Menopause
  • Dehydration
  • Adhesions
  • Chronic SSRI Usage
  • Emotional Stress
  • Autoimmune
  • Heavy Metal due to DMT1 up-regulation from inflammation/immune dysregulation
  • Environmental Antigen Burden

Divalent metal transporter (DMT1)

Absorption of non-heme iron is mediated by the divalent metal transporter (DMT1), among others. This transporter is up-regulated with low iron. Toxic elements such as share the same transporter, and it may be the reason that low iron predisposes humans to cadmium, mercury and lead toxicity.

Toxic elements can “piggy back” on the homeostatic mechanisms for iron regulation and can pose a second adverse consequence for the patient with either extremely high iron stores or the patient with iron deficiency. DMT1 mediates absorption of iron, manganese, cadmium, and lead and some toxic elements use transferrin as their carrier protein (e.g. aluminum).
