News — Adrenal Fatigue

Although popularized by American mystic Edgar Cayce, castor oil has been used as a healing agent since ancient times. Also known as Palm Christie (literally the hand of Christ), castor is a heavy oil used for sealing in moisture. It is safe and soothing for all types of skin.

Stressful lifestyles are more the rule these days rather than the exception. The adrenal glands are two small organs located on the top of each kidney, which are integral in the body's response to stress. Hormones they secrete can give us the energy and stamina to confront potentially dangerous situations. Long term stressful situations place too much demand on the adrenal glands, causing a condition called adrenal fatigue.
