Are You Tired, Stressed, and Just Not Feeling Like Yourself? It Could Be Adrenal Fatigue.

Many people don’t realize that stress and poor health are deeply connected. If you’re constantly stressed or not getting enough rest, it can take a serious toll on your body—specifically on your cortisol levels.

Cortisol is one of over 50 hormones produced by the adrenal glands—two small but powerful glands that sit just above your kidneys. These glands play a key role in maintaining energy, managing stress, and supporting your immune system.

One of the most common things we hear from patients struggling with adrenal fatigue is:
👉 “After [a major stress or life event], I was never the same.”

That turning point often follows periods of:

  • Financial stress
  • Emotional strain
  • Infections or illness
  • Poor diet (especially sugar and processed foods)
  • Smoking or drug use
  • Unemployment or life instability

Over time, these stressors can cause your adrenal glands to struggle, leading to reduced cortisol production—your body’s main stress-handling hormone. And when cortisol levels drop, your energy, focus, and even your mood can take a hit.

Common Symptoms of Adrenal Fatigue:

  • Chronic fatigue
  • Dizziness or lightheadedness
  • Low blood pressure or blood sugar
  • Frequent headaches
  • Anxiety or panic attacks
  • Depression
  • Low libido
  • Fertility issues
  • Feeling “off” or not like yourself

💚 You don’t have to keep pushing through. If this sounds like you, New Leaf Wellness in West Des Moines and all the other locations can help. We offer cortisol testing and personalized support, including supplements designed to restore balance and help you feel like yourself again.

✨ Let us help you restore your energy, health, and vitality—naturally.

‘Twas the Night Before the Holiday Party!

‘Twas the night before the Holiday party, joyous and elate,
Excitement filled the air, as I prepared to celebrate.

At New Leaf Wellness, a revelation took flight,
Natural Hormone Therapy, a beacon shining bright.

My worries were eased, like a gentle, soothing breeze,
As I embraced the promise of wellness with such ease.

The hormones aligned, a symphony within,
A transformation began, a journey to begin.

No longer confined to worries and strife,
I danced through the night, embracing a new life.

The dress in my closet, a symbol of grace,
Enhanced by vitality, a radiant embrace.

Nestled in comfort, in this newfound repose,
A harmony of hormones, my essence composed.

Away to share my joy, the story to unfold,
Of New Leaf Wellness, where transformations are told.

With confidence blooming, like a flower in spring,
I reveled in the joy that Natural Hormone Therapy could bring.

Now, every holiday, a testament to glee,
Thanks to New Leaf Wellness, a gift to me.

On estrogen! On progesterone! A symphony so divine,
Harmony restored, like a cherished vintage wine.

Here’s to the radiance, the balance, the cheer,
To happy hormones and a joyous new year!
