6. Increased Allergy Sensitivity
Adrenal fatigue is an underlying cause of unresponsive asthma and allergies that is regularly unnoticed by medical professionals. The abnormal function of adrenal glands can be responsible for respiratory allergies to mold, pollen, dust, grass, or pets. If your asthma persists even directly after treatment, there is a chance that adrenal fatigue could be the cause of the issue.
DHEA (Dehydroepiandrosterone) and cortisol play their parts in regulating the inflammatory response of the immune system. The immune system becomes overactive when the adrenal glands produce inadequate amounts of these hormones. In turn, inflammatory responses increase, and the immune system identifies common substances as a health threat.
The resultant effect of this immune response can come in the form of both respiratory and dermatological allergies. The skin can develop eczema, psoriasis, and rashes. Increased cases in the development of asthma show a relationship to extended respiratory allergies. Treating these allergic responses with antihistamine medications will provide relief.
