Adrenal Optimization

Meaning

Adrenal Optimization refers to the state where the adrenal glands, small endocrine organs situated atop the kidneys, function optimally to produce and regulate hormones essential for physiological balance. This concept emphasizes not merely maximizing adrenal output, but achieving a balanced and adaptive production of glucocorticoids like cortisol, mineralocorticoids such as aldosterone, and adrenal androgens like DHEA, allowing the body to effectively respond to stressors and maintain systemic health. It represents a functional equilibrium rather than an exaggerated state of activity.
