āAdrenal Fatigueā is coined but a more accurate diagnostic label is termed: HPA (hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal) axis D (dysregulation) or HPA-D for short.
Adrenal fatigue is an increasingly common yet sometimes controversial diagnosis used to indicate depletion of the adrenal glands. Cortisol is a hormone released by the adrenals for use in the regulation of blood pressure. In response to stress, the adrenals release greater amounts of cortisol. Adrenal fatigue is thought to occur when the adrenals have become overtaxed by excess cortisol release and can no longer produce levels of cortisol necessary for optimal body function.

Feel More Rested After Sleeping
Unlock your bodies ability to feel better rested after sleeping so you feel more awake and alert.
Reduce Sugar Cravings
Drastically reduce your bodies cravings for sugar which also helps with proper dieting.
Common symptoms of adrenal fatigue are thought to include:
fatigue, particularly upon waking, with intermittent ācrashesā throughout the day
poor stress response and mood regulation
cognitive issues or ābrain fogā
increased energy levels in the eveningsĀ
cravings for salty and sweet foodsĀ
unexplained body aches
overuse of caffeine and other stimulantsĀ
a compromised immune system
low blood pressure
loss of body hair
Less common symptoms are could include:
insomnia
frequent urination
loss of muscle tone
poor circulation
depression
weight gainĀ
decreased libido
What causes Adrenal Fatigue?
There are four primary triggers for HPA-D:
Perceived stress:Ā Emotional and psychological stress.
Glycemic dysregulation: High and low blood sugar, or alternating between the two.
Circadian disruption: Sleep deprivation, too much light exposure at night, not enough exposure to daylight, shift work, and frequent travel between time zones.
Inflammatory signaling:Ā Inflammation caused by poor diet, physical inactivity or overtraining, gut dysfunction (SIBO, dysbiosis, gut infections, leaky gut, etc.), autoimmune disease, and many other modern sources of inflammation.
Some important things to note about adrenal fatigue:
Adrenal fatigue is not recognized the medical literature.Ā But, that doesnāt mean that itās a myth.Ā In our experiences, adrenal fatigue is definitely a real thing. Hereās data to back that up:Ā Fatigue makes up more than 20% of all guest contacts in primary care or 18 million visits in the US. 75-90% of primary care visits have been reported to be stress related. Conventional medicine is often at a loss of how to care for these guests.
Whatās the difference between Adrenal Fatigue and Adrenal Insufficiency?
While the diagnosis of adrenal fatigue is not accepted by most doctors, adrenal insufficiency is a real medical condition that occurs when our adrenal glands cannot produce enough hormones. Adrenal insufficiency is caused by damage to the adrenal glands or a problem with the pituitary glandāa pea-sized gland in the brain that tells the adrenals to produce cortisol.
A person with adrenal insufficiency may be dehydrated, confused, or losing weight. He or she may feel weak, tired, or dizzy, and have low blood pressure. Other symptoms include stomach pain, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea.
Adrenal insufficiency is diagnosed through blood tests, and can be treated with medications that replace the hormones the adrenals would normally make.

I have had the best results with Dr. Le. even after the first visit!<br>I have seen Dr. Le for 2 weeks now and am nearly pain-free in my neck and zero pain in my lower back. I would also add that if I was not getting the great results that I am, I would not go back.<br>It is a real pleasure working with his staff as well.
I been coming here for over a year. Everyone is so nice and professional. Kudos to Ashley for always being extra helpful. I recommend Best Life to anyone looking for a new Chiropractor in the area.
Very professional, took an initial series of X-rays, very thorough. Dr Le explained all X-rays thoroughly. Taking shockwave therapy for tennis elbow, get chiropractic to straighten spine and general wellness. Office runs very smooth. Dr. Le very approachable and great.
Iām so happy to have found Dr. Steve! Heās a wonderful chiropractor and very helpful! Over the past year of visiting him, I've noticed significant improvements in my body. The office is always clean, and the staff is wonderful. When I first started, Ashley and Cindy were there, and both are friendly and professional.

This team is truly committed to helping you achieve your best health, and you wonāt find a more caring group of professionals.
5 STAR-<br>Iāve been a patient at Best Life Chiropractic for some time, starting at their Flower Mound location where Dr. Steven Le also practices. Recently, I began visiting the Plano office, and Iām thoroughly impressed after two visits. The atmosphere in Plano is just as welcoming, with a friendly and professional team that creates a positive experience from start to finish.<br><br>Dr. Steven Le has continued his exceptional care, resetting my neck, realigning my body, and helping me regain balance and mobility. Since starting treatment, Iāve experienced life-changing progress. One of the most significant improvements is getting up in the morning without pain. It used to take me thirty minutes to feel ready to get out of bed, but now I can start my day efficiently and on time. My everyday activities have become so much more comfortable and rewarding.<br><br>Additionally, the Shockwave treatment on my shoulder has been a game-changer. I used to feel fatigued and burning within seconds of reaching for something, but now I can reach without pain or discomfort. This has made a tremendous difference in my ability to perform daily tasks efficiently. Dr. Leās expertise and attention to detail ensure every treatment is tailored to my needs, and the results speak for themselves.<br><br>If youāre looking for chiropractic care that delivers accurate results, I highly recommend the Plano office of Best Life Chiropractic. The care Iāve received has been transformative, and I couldnāt be more thankful!

You will be doing yourself a favor to at least check the Chiropractic and Wellness Center out.
Havenāt felt this great in years! Dr Steven and staff really know their stuff and it shows! I really appreciated them taking the time to genuinely listen to what was bothering me, take and explain my X-rays to me, and derive a treatment plan based on my pain points. They also take insurance which makes my visits super affordable. Highly recommend!
Before finding Dr Steve and Best Life, I was afraid I wouldn't be able to continue my chemo because the chemo induced neuropathy was practically unbearable. But his light therapy and other therapies have made my life so much better. I tell them I go to the oncology clinic for treatment; I come here for healing. And I know the benefits will long outlast my chemo. I am so grateful.
I had severe lower back pain for almost month. When I came here doctor analyzed me with degenerative disc. But Dr. Steven really saved me from that unbearable pain within 2 days . Almost I took 15 dayās treatment and now I am completely fine . All staff is also very nice and cooperative.<br>Thank you so much š
Dr. Le and his staff are amazing! Their customer service and professionalism is absolutely outstanding. I came in with some aches and pains due to my pregnancy and I feel so much better already after my first session. I highly recommend Best Life Chiropractic and Wellness for your chiropractic care! You will absolutely love it!
Dr. Le and his staff are awesome. They get me in whenever needed, everyone is friendly and knowledgeable. Dr. Le has used some different techniques to help me with my knee, neck and back and I now see him for maintenance.
First experience with a chiropractor and Iāll probably never go anywhere else. The entire staff is wonderful. Everyone is very knowledgeable and they care about your overall health. You can tell they care because they are constantly asking about different aspects of your health and keeping tabs on whatās working for you. Going here has really helped with my pains and several other issues I have had. Going to the clinic is my favorite part of the week. Highly recommend āļø
