  Speaker 1: Welcome to Revealing Wholeness podcasts dedicated to revealing the profound
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: connections between body, mind, and spirit, where we believe that
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: true wellness arises from addressing the root causes of our
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: health challenges, not just masking the symptoms. Here we dive
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: deep into how holistic approaches such as advanced chiropractic care,
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: personalized nutrition, and natural healing practices can transform your life.
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: Now Here is doctor Troy.
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: Hello and welcome. I'm doctor Troy. Have you ever wanted
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: to take a nap after lunch, maybe an hour after
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: you've eaten, perhaps around two o'clock to thirty, you would
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: not be alone. I used to remember that every day,
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: even if I didn't eat, I'd want to sleep at
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: around two thirty three o'clock, sometimes a little earlier, sometimes
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: a little later. I'll have clients come in with those
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: kinds of symptoms and they tell me they're exhausted, they
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: don't sleep well, and ultimately we want to do some
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: blood work and try to figure out what's going on. Now,
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: if you're out there thinking, well, I've heard of a
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: drenal fatigue, and I'm interested in what your take is
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: on it. If you're not and you're kind of new
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: to this, but you're like, I started listening to this
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: because I get tired every day at that time. What's
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: going on with me? I'm not that old. Well, stay tuned.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: We're going to talk about what you can do to
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: help maybe understand it, but also what to do and why.
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: So here we go. When dealing with adrenal fatigue, the
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: first thing I would have you do is to go
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: to your my chart. You've probably got one, or if
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: you don't, you may want to get some blood work,
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: and not a very complicated panel. In fact, one of
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: the most common blood panels they will do on anybody
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: in a hospital or if you go into a doctor,
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: will be a comprehensive metabolic panel. Now you may have
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: a basic metabolic panel. Those will usually cover this too.
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: And what's nice is you can look at a trend. Now,
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: if you've been around and heard me speak before, I've
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: talked about blood work. But if not, let's review real quick.
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: Medical normals are quite broad, meaning they're way too large.
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: There is a huge gap with they call normal. How
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: many times have people gone into their doctor with problems
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: and they do blood work and the doctor tells them
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: your blood looks great, but how do they feel? Not great?
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: That's why they're there. So when you understand all of
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: a sudden that there is an optimal within blood and
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: that the medical profession will take two standard deviations outside
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: of that optimal and they'll get what they call their normal, Well,
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: really what it should be called is I'm not sick
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: enough yet to give you a drug until you're outside
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: of this range. So you may not feel well and
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: be close to the edge of the range range sometimes
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: even in the middle, but you're not sick enough for
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: your medical doctor to prescribe you a drug to try
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: to help you with a symptom, not fix it, by
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: the way, just help you with the sympom them. So
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: what do we do with a comprehensive metabolic panel. Well,
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: when we look at a comprehensive metabolic panel, you're going
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: to find that there is a sodium and a potassium
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: on there. And sodium, while it's usually quite broad of
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: a range within the medical norm one forty one forty
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: five is more ideal, so somewhere in there would be best.
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: On potassium, it's like three point five to five is
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: what they consider normal, but four to four point five
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: is ideal for potassium. Now both those together when they
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: are low point to adrenal fatigue, and on occasion when
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: they're both outside of those ranges a point to adrenal fatigue.
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: I will commonly see people their potassium at three point
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: nine and their sodium at one thirty nine, and the
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: medical profession will tell them you look great, but they
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: don't feel great. Now you can have like a one
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: thirty nine sodium and a four point eight potassium, you
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: would still be out of range on one on either side,
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: and we'd still consider a good hard look at your adrenals.
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: So if you find yourself being fatigued, you find yourself
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: not handling stress very well, or have been stressed out
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: for a long time, which will deplete your adrenal glands.
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: Your adrenals handle all the stress, and the more you
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: stress them out, the more they get depleted. What do
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: the adrenals need to rebuild? They need lots of usable copper. Now,
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: notice I say usable, usable is the real stuff, and
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: real copper is in the form of where you would
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: find real vitamin C and food, not from some pill
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: in a pharmacy that has ascorbic acid that will not
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: have copper in it, So you need actual food that's
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: high in vitamin C. Now, way back, we would have
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: eaten a lot of the animals, and when I see
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: a lot of the animals, a lot of the animal,
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: not just the mo muscle meat. We would have eaten
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: the liver. We would have made kidney pie, we would
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: have made sweetbread out of the thymus. We'd have taken
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: all the internal organs and actually made decent hot dogs
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: with a lot of spices, and we would have eaten
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: all the rest of those organs. Today we do not
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: do that, and so we're now kind of behind the gun,
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: so to speak. And most of us are fairly well
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: deficient in a vast majority of nutrients. So to get
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: back your adrenals by changing your diet will obviously help,
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: but you're going to have to add some nutrient value
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: back in the body at breakneck speed. And so it's
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: why I choose whole food supplements myself. You may do
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: as you wish. You can try to go find usable
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: copper in some brand who knows what they're going to
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: do with it or to it, and do your best.
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: And that's fine too. You might say, well, I am
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: not eating organ meats well. When you do whole food supplements,
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: if they're right, you'll be taking organs and you'll be
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: eating them because it is one of the quickest ways
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: to get better. Animals eat grass and things of that nature,
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: and we eat them. That's how it works. So if
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: you're one of those people that is say hey, I'm
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: going to start eating alfalfa and kelp okay, you might
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: get a lot of copper and zinc and other trace
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: minerals doing that for most of your meals. Let me
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: know how that goes for you. So for the rest
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: of us, we're going to try to figure out how
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: to do it the best we can. So if you're
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: in that boat, then let's take a look at your
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: blood work and let's see what we need to work
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: on now. Just because we see adrenal fatigue, trust me,
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: we have other issues going on in your body, not
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: just that. When you lack vitamin C in all of
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: its forms and copper with it, you are having a
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: serious problem maintaining hormone balance in your gonads as well
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: as your adrenals. If you're not sure what a gonad is,
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: it's ovaries or testes, and so we have other issues
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: at hand. When we have adrenal fatigue, we have not
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: just tanked them. We now have gone other ways in
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: the body as well, And so feeding your entire body
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: now becomes the mainstay, and it's probably not going to
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: happen on fast food, by the way, and pop. So
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: if you're in that boat and you're looking for some help,
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: I would love to be of assistance to you and
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: kind of direct you on the right path and back
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: on things that make sense. And some people think, well,
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: he's just going to tell me to stop doing everything
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: I'm doing. No, I'm actually not going to do that.
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: By the way, I'm not interested in taking away some
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: of the things you're doing because they actually lead me
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: in a direction of where your body is also lacking.
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: And if I try to change things radically in your diet,
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: your body may result revolt in a very unpleasant way,
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: and I would like to avoid that. So most of
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: the time I'm going to ask people, is that, okay,
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: if we upgrade some things. Everybody likes an upgrade, and
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: upgrading some of the foods you eat to more nutritious
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: foods that still taste good most people have not a
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: problem with. And so we want to start doing things
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: gradually and effortlessly so that they stick around. Radical change
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: rarely is stuck to by anybody. Though there are those
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: out there that will radically change, and if you're one
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: of those, good for you. Most of us not going
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: to do that. So let's be gentle, let's be easy,
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: Let's do one thing at a time, or two things,
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: whatever we can handle. Let's upgrade where we can and
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: start increasing your ability to heal and be healthy. Until
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: next time, I'm doctor Troy, and remember there is way
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: more right with you than there is wrong with you.
