Why does Dr. Hyman recommend adrenal support in addition to thyroid support?
Many of the same symptoms that are indicative of low thyroid function are also indicative of adrenal burnout—a very common syndrome in our overworked, stressed out society. The conditions of low thyroid function and adrenal burnout tend to overlap to produce even worse symptoms. Treating the thyroid without treating the adrenals may actually make you feel worse. That’s why Dr. Hyman always recommends treating the adrenals at the same time the thyroid is treated. The adrenal support supplement included in the kit provides a synergistic combination of herbs that support optimal adrenal function and thus is often useful for those with low thyroid function.
