Life Choice Adrenal Gland - The adrenal gland fights fatigue, stress, certain withdrawal symptoms, low immunity and allergies, and can reduce pain and inflammation. Adrenal fatigue can have a number of symptoms. Signs to watch for include but are not limited to increased cravings for salt, heightened PMS, depleted energy and lessened sex drive. Life Choice uses glandular concentrates (not extracts) that are derived from New Zealand range-grazed bovine. The grasslands are not fertilized and the animals are not administered feed supplements, hormones or antibiotics. Glandular therapy provides these raw materials to your weakened organs, glands, and other tissues so that they can start the process of regeneration. Calcium ascorbate is added as stress and anxiety affect the adrenals. When this happens, vitamin C and calcium act like shock absorbers. In both stress and anxiety, urinary calcium has been found to increase, meaning that the calcium in the body is decreasing. Because calcium stores deplete when stress hits, it is important to provide an extra buffer. Gotu kola is also in this formulation. It has a significant history in Ayurvedic and Chinese medicine as a treatment for anxiety and depression.
