So I've read a little more about this so I wanted to revisit this topic. Basically, there are 2 polarizing camps on this whole topic of adrenals.....which I was aware of but wasn't sure exactly what has been published in the medical literature.

You have the integrative people who say adrenal fatigue is a real thing. Then you have the traditionally trained doctors saying it's either Addison's disease or nothing. The truth and evidence are somewhere in the middle.

This interview with Bryan Walsh was so interesting. He says that urine, blood, and saliva testing are all valid....however they are all different pieces of the puzzle as to what is going on with you. He digs into the medical literature and explains some of the valid reasons as to why cortisol can be low.
