This book was very helpful, it helped me to spot a dozen previously unseen behaviors connected with adrenal fatigue. Even if you feel healthy you may be subjected to periods of gray humor, stress or just feel fatigued or sleepy for no apparent reason. This book is a manual to get back your energy, and ultimately your life.
Guess I've been fast to find this book. Those who suffer of adrenal fatigue can get seriously ill if they don't adjust their lifestyle to the need of their bodies, as stress can be accumulated during several years and then shut one off completely. Very often the source can be also external, not only physical or psychological, and this book covers a lot of different situations.
Highly Recommend

Excellent book describing this mostly "undiagnosed" syndrome. It was very validating to read all the symptoms, as I have finally figured out this is what has been underlying so many of my other "issues". Gives good discription and a great plan to heal yourself, covering all aspects. From life style modifications, diet, excercise and vitamin, herb and drug supplementation.
Also describes how the adrenal glands work, and their intricate play in so many bodily functions as well as their effect on other endocrine glands. You could easily go to a wide variety of "specialists" and get all sorts of individual diagnosis, and then, as I did procede to treat those symptoms, all along never treating the root cause of the problem, subsequently causing this undetected issue to progress and become more and more debilitating. Definitely helped me on many levels! Thank you Dr. Wilson.
Wonderful information 2008-07-26
This book has literally been a huge source of information for me. It seems like he wrote the book just for me!! If you have the "blahs", chances are, you have adrenal fatigue. I recommend getting the adrenal cortisol levels tested. A wonderful lab is in WA State called Diagnos Techs. http://www.diagnostechs.com/main.htm
Thanks so much for the wonderful book.
Important information for all those who "cry wolf" 2008-07-22
This book along with Fatigued To Fabulous is a lifesaver--literally. I have been sick for almost two years starting with a severe case of Epstein Barr virus and cytomegalovirus. My immune system which used to be excellent plummeted and I was sick constantly. All kinds of infections including pink eye several times, a bladder infection that lasted 5 months, a couple of stomach viruses, several upper respiratory infections and chronic sinusitis. Because of all of these I am now allergic to so many thing I never used to be allergic to, including some food items. I went to my regular doctor several times with the problems I was having outside of these "easy to diagnose, easy to treat" problems and they could do nothing for me. Finally my doctor told me I had fibromyalgia and I should go back to my rheumatologist. She turned around and said that I need to get my lip biopsed for a possible diagnosis of Sjogren's Disease. I already have Raunauds Phenomenom and eczema which are associated with the immune system.
I went to a Naturopath who told me I was suffering from chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, and adrenal gland fatigue---just a bit away from Addisons's disease which can be really bad. I am now on minerals and other herbal supplements to help with these problems. I was having diffuse muscle and joint pain, severe headaches, my hands hurt constantly and needed to be massaged, my feet also. I was constantly tired. I still am tired quite abit.
Anyway, this book is wonderful. It is a no nonsense book and liese it all on the line for you. Tests that you can do at home to check for these problems and even certain protocols to help you through this time. It stresses that you can find relief and not to give up hope. This book believes in you and and your pain. When you cry "wolf" this book wil coming running for you no matter how many times you call wolf. Excellent book. I would recommend this book to any one having some of the above problems and those of you wholse family is not as caring as they should seem. this book will let you know that you are not online. Get this book along with "From Fatigued to Fabulous" and youcant go wrong! Enjoy!
This Book put it all together for me 2008-06-30
This is an incredibly informative and reader-friendly book about a common debilitating medical condition that goes largely undiagnosed and untreated. ADRENAL FATIGUE: The 21st Century Stress Syndrome is a very empowering work cram-packed with vital information about a condition that very likely affects millions of people.
Excellent info 2008-06-29
Very few people understand the impact of low functioning adrenal glands. This book explains in simple language how to improve your cortisol levels and energy through lifestyle changes and more.
Helpful.

This book was ok, moderately helpful, but much of it I flipped through. I wish it had focused in more on the diet and vitamin portion because that was the only part I really got into and made notes from. Again, it was kind of helpful but it could have been better. I feel like I have to still do more research and reading to fully understand and treat my adrenal/thyroid functioning.
Truly Needed 2008-06-23
This book comprehensively addresses this condition, a condition that is likely more widespread than acknowledged. Much is written about stress and high cortisol but little is available on the symptoms that occur when your adrenals are exhausted and there is little cortisol. Even most conventional doctors know little about this condition nor how to treat it. Having been finally diagnosed (after probably 14 years of walking around with varying degrees of adrenal fatigue), I've used this book as a guide to healing naturally and selecting a doctor who really knew how to address this condition. This book appropriately managed my expectations as to how slowly I would heal and helped me identify much-needed lifestyle changes.
doctor's recommendation 2008-06-19
My doctor recommended this book to me, and I found it extremely helpful. It covers a subject which is not widely known, even by doctors. There is an easy written test, and a description of tests you can do on your own to determine whether you have adrenal fatique. It also details steps you can take to heal yourself. I recommend this book especially to anyone whose mother may have had Addison's disease, as that may have put you at risk.
