Introduction The adrenal fatigue diet is a food-based approach to improving stress on the adrenal glands. Your adrenal glands are located in your kidneys. They produce hormones that help regulate your body.Adrenal fatigue occurs when your adrenal glands can't function properly.Even in the best of times, you need food to survive and be healthy. Adrenal fatigue is definitely not the best of times, so the food choices you make become even more important to your health. When your adrenals respond to stress your cell metabolism speeds up, burning many times the number of nutrients normally needed. With adrenal fatigue, the cells have used up much of the body's stored nutrients, creating a nutritional void. Good quality food is the best source for replenishing these nutrients.
