you probably have seen my other videos on  stress and adrenal fatigue i’ve done quite  

a few in this video i’m going to talk about  the non-stress cause of adrenal fatigue now  

so many people are stressed out and they’re burnt  out but some people have adrenal fatigue and they  

really haven’t been through stress and they’re  wondering why did i end up with an adrenal issue  

with no stress so there’s another cause of this  but before i get into that let me just tell you  

what the adrenal gland does the adrenal gland has  two parts an outside and an inside the inside is  

all neurological tissue it makes neurotransmitters  it’s called the adrenal medulla the outside  

is all glandular and that makes hormones like  cortisol and a few others now the adrenal medulla  

is primarily part of the autonomic nervous  system specifically the sympathetic nervous  

system which is the flight or fight you have  the opposing system called the parasympathetic  

and that is located in your brain stem  it’s located in a few other places  

but for this video we’re just  going to focus in on the adrenals  

and also the brain stem so the parasympathetic  nervous system which is located in the brain stem  

kind of counteracts the sympathetic fight or fight  mode so it’s all about rest digest and recovery so  

if you experience stress you can activate the  adrenals and eventually wear out the adrenals  

but what about if you lose the parasympathetic  control what happens then like you lose your  

brake pads and from a non-stress source well  that can actually create a sympathetic dominant  

problem where you’re kind of stuck in stress and  you have all the symptoms and so the brain stem  

is very sensitive to thymine b1 deficiencies so  when you’re deficient in b1 you can have all sorts  

of problems with the brain stem specifically a  lack of adaptation to stress because the autonomic  

nervous system then starts becoming dysfunctional  so one real simple way that you know that that  

system is involved is if you stand up too quickly  and you get dizzy or you might pass out there’s  

a severe condition called pots which also falls  in this category but so many people get up from  

a seated position or they get up too quick and  they’re like whoa and that could be an electrolyte  

problem where you’re low in salt or potassium but  it can also be a b1 deficiency because the brain  

stem needs b1 to work correctly being b1 deficient  can create a lack of adaptation to gravity stress  

and it can affect your ability to tolerate stress  in general so it’s not just about physical stress  

it could be about adapting to mental stress as  well as you may already know a b1 deficiency  

can create anxiety and fatigue very similar to  having just an adrenal gland that’s burnt out and  

having high levels of cortisol so it’s very very  similar the problem with vitamin b1 it’s water  

soluble and it doesn’t store for very long i mean  you could be completely depleted within 18 days  

of not consuming vitamin b1 however it’s not just  about not consuming b1 it’s about certain things  

that actually directly create a deficiency  the biggest thing is refine carbohydrates  

whether it’s grains or sugar that will create  a huge problem and also the more carbohydrate  

you consume the more the demand for b1 so if you  consume a lot of carbs you’re going to need a lot  

of b1 to be able to metabolize those carbohydrates  also alcohol is a big b1 depleter coffee can  

create a b1 deficiency so those jittery feelings  that you might feel if you drink too much coffee  

if you took b1 boom goes away t with its  tannic acid can create a b1 deficiency  

sulfites which are in wine so we combine the  alcohol and the sulphites can deplete your b1  

antibiotics i’ve done a video on that can create a  b1 deficiency diuretics can create a b1 deficiency  

metformin the drug for diabetes can also create  a b1 deficiency so in summary the symptoms of  

adrenal fatigue are very very very similar if  not identical to the symptoms of a b1 deficiency  

before you go if you have a question about a  product or you’re new to keto and you want to  

know how to begin keto or you’re on keto and you  need a debug because it’s not going as smooth  

i have a keto consultant standing  by to help you this is just for the  

people in the u.s hopefully in the future  we’ll be able to answer everyone’s call  

but i put the number down below so  you can call and get some help you
