WHAT IS THE JIGSAW ADRENAL COCKTAIL? The Jigsaw Adrenal Cocktail combines Whole Food Vitamin C, Potassium Bicarbonate, and Redmond's Real Salt in a unique formulation designed to support healthy adrenal gland function. Vitamin C plays a critical role in adrenal function, including their ability to produce numerous hormones. In fact, the highest concentration of Vitamin C in your body is stored by your adrenal glands. Additionally, sodium and potassium play a delicate dance in your adrenals and are both vital minerals for normal adrenal function.* WHAT ARE ADRENAL GLANDS AND WHAT DO THEY DO IN YOUR BODY? Your adrenal glands are walnut-shaped organs that sit above your kidneys. These "tiny but mighty" glands are essential to life and responsible for secreting a range of critical hormones like adrenalin, epinephrine, cortisol, testosterone, estrogens, DHEA, aldosterone and more (1).* When your faced with a great deal of stress, your adrenal glands become overworked, exhausted and dysregulated. WHAT ARE THE SIGNS THAT YOUR ADRENAL GLANDS ARE UNDER STRESS?* Bloating (water retention) Heavy caffeine use Stress Low energy Tired in the morning and more energy in the evening Poor immune system Cravings for salty foods

Thanks Clare.Had just been looking at that this morning in my search for answers! Conflicting reports re potasium (ie bananas) when in adrenal fatigue.l realise lm probably not crazy after all as all symptoms listed are me.The dizzy feeling is the worst to deal with & bad on standing.Thanks anyway.Peems

No your not crazy . I have Hashimotos, and Perimenopause symptoms which cause lots of problems with health anxiety . The dizziness I get I put down to peri as looking on different forums it seems lost of women have this and many more symptoms... take care .
