Do you suffer from the 2pm energy crash? If you are reaching for a coffee, a cookie or craving a quick power nap this cocktail is designed for you!
Natural Ways to Support Your Adrenals:
1) Get some sleep. You must rest if you are going to help your adrenals get stronger. That means going to bed every night by 10 p.m. Make this a priority and stick with it. Your adrenals need their beauty sleep!
2) Eliminate sugar and processed carbs. Sugar and simple carbs (junk!) put stress on the adrenals. Adrenal glands help to regulate blood sugar levels.
3) Eat clean animal protein foods, organic vegetables, fruits, nuts, legumes, beans and grains.
4) Quit the coffee habit and drink plenty of fresh filtered water every day.
5) Try this energy boosting cocktail! This cocktail is designed to support your adrenal health.
