Adrenal Stress Index Zone 7 Adrenal Exhaustion

Zone 7. Adrenal Exhaustion

Discover Adrenal Stress Index Zone 7 – the ultimate stage of adrenal exhaustion. Learn about the complete loss of cortisol or DHEA production, common in chronically ill patients. Uncover the importance of identifying and eliminating stressors, alongside dietary and nutritional interventions. Find insights into suppressed hypothalamic pituitary axis due to exogenous steroid overuse. Take control of your adrenal health today.

This pattern is the final stage of adrenal exhaustion. It represents complete loss of the adrenal capacity to produce cortisol or DHEA. These patterns are common in chronically ill patients. The cause of stress must be identified and removed, in addition to dietary and nutritional intervention. Individuals with suppressed hypothalamic pituitary axis due to exogenous steroid overuse may also show results that fall into zone 7.

Phase I Recommendation for Supplementation:

1. Proglyco-SP:

2. Adaptacrine:

3. Adrenastim:

4. Super EFA complex (K-8):

5. Adrenacalm (K-16):

Phase II Recommendation for Supplementation:

If there is a failure or lack of response using the Phase I Supplementation within two weeks. Secondary support may be necessary in cases of extreme exhaustion or failure to respond.

Sublingual Pregnenolone (K-19),
Sublingual DHEA (K-18)

Phase 1. Restoration Plan

Adrenal Stress Index

A. Use Cortisol/DHEA ratios to guide treatment.

Adrenal Deal Breaker

Anemia

If you are anemic. You should order Bio-Screen Sustain Max to determine which type of anemia causing your symptoms.

It is very difficult to improve adrenal/blood sugar patterns if the patient is anemic. Your Red blood Cells will not be able to deliver oxygen to mitochondria for ATP production and will be dependent upon glycolosis for energy production. Glycolosis is very inefficient and places great demands upon the blood sugar/adrenal stabilizing system.

Inflammation/Unresolving Immune Response

If your anemia is due to inflammation and/or bacterial infection use of iron supplements will increase bacterial growth, free radical production and an unresolving immune response. Do Not Use Iron Supplements in presence of inflammation.
