Adrenals, Sodium and Electrolytes: Autoimmunity, Belly Fat, Fluid Balance and Cortisol/Stress

Описание: If you’re struggling with adrenal issues you could be losing minerals like potassium and sodium. Your adrenals make a hormone called aldosterone. This hormone helps to maintain the body’s electrolytes, including potassium and sodium. When your adrenals/HPA axis are dysregulated your kidneys lose excessive sodium and electrolytes become imbalanced.

Proper mineral balance is essential but one of those things that’s often overlooked when it comes to addresing stubborn chronic hormone imbalances, digestive symptoms like constipation or diarrhea, food sensitivities and inflammation. 👀

My nickname used to be “Señorita Sal” back when I lived in Guatemala 😂 Without sodium, we can’t produce energy, maintain blood pressure, or maintain adequate fluid balance (without sodium fluid can’t get into your cells).🧂

Are you worried about consuming salt? We don’t necessarily need to take the salt shaker away…the real problem is the high amounts of salt in lots of processed foods. And the salt added by food manufactures is likely not of the mineral rich variety.💪🏽

I like a mineral rich salt like this gray Celtic salt which can contain at least 80 different minerals. I also use Himalayan sea salt and daily medical grade electrolytes called E-lyte by BodyBio and occasionally LMNT – their new grapefruit flavor is amazing💎

There are so many options for testing and supporting your adrenals! Do you suspect cortisol or your HPA axis is contributing to your health issues, stubborn belly fat or autoimmunity?
