Losing Muscle Mass is an Adrenal Fatigue Symptom

[@iscapetv5508]

This just recently happened to me. Intermittent fasting while bodybuilding caused extra stress on my body in conjunction with anemia. I lost about 15lbs of muscle mass. Now that I’m no longer fasting and I’m eating the proper nutrition, I’m looking forward to gaining everything I lost back in time.

[@drlam]

Glad to hear you're adjusting your nutrition! Balanced eating can support muscle recovery.

[@schoolofhot]

I just never thought I had adrenal fatigue all this time... but everything you mentioned I have Doctor! Hopefully I can get better soon if it really is just my adrenals.

@Nelly E Did you happen to find something worth sharing?

[@Housenumber68]

Hi. I'm facing the same after doctor started aldactone 50.

[@schoolofhot]

@@awalsaani5310 sorry I hadn’t responded :( I did in fact. I quit caffeine. Fasted less and took it really easy at the gym. I went through this cycle a few times. I’ve officially quit caffeine permanently now. How have you been?

[@schoolofhot]

@@Housenumber68 oh no I was put on that once too :/ I’m so sorry! A lot of bad things I faced was due to pharmaceuticals. I regret taking most of them!

I experienced this through a traumatic heartbreak from a woman with borderline personality disorder. I lost 12 pounds of muscle

Constant joint pain. Lower back pain tightness. Never much energy or appetite. I only have a cup or two of coffee daily in the morning, that could be the culprit at 100 to 150 milagrams of caffeine. Im 41 and have lost so much strength since i was in my 20s. I still exersize sometimes with weights and walk daily

Treatment?

[@SoLNaTaL555]

Can one reverse the muscle loss? I've noticed that my glutes have diminished in size over the years, and my legs have become skinnier. All my weight has gone to the trunk of my body... I just turned 40 years old, and I've been under a lot of stress for over a decade. As a conscious man, I want to recover my overall health and my body.

[@LAMCLINIC]

central weight gain is a common symptom of adrenal fatigue, due to cortisol imbalance. regaining muscle takes time to do, there is not short cut unfortunately

[@SoLNaTaL555]

@@LAMCLINIC yes, I'm sure that regaining my muscle mass in the right places and loosing the fat in my trunk area, will take hard work. My question was, is it possible to restore my physical integrity at my age?

Hi Dr Lam , could i possibly be experiencing some sort of Adrenal related symptoms ? Morning nausea Very fatigued weak muscles shaking and trembling more frequent urination muscles beginning to become flaccid in legs Tired despite sleeping Muscle wasting and loss of mass- legs / neck / back Stiff muscles when tensed or flexed Emotional/depressed/feeling very low Seemingly only gain weight in stomach/trunk and losing mass elsewhere I am still eating and drinking - my legs seem so thin

[@awalsaani5310]

Have the same symptoms... Please if you happen to find something that helps please kindly share. Doctors around here seem not helpful. Thank you.

[@PF-gi9vv]

99% of the problems we have is due to our diet. Usually high carb & sugar is the cause. Give the keto diet a try, it helped me solve numerous problems with my body. Its not an easy diet because of the low sugar but you do get used to it. I no longer crave sugar, pop or chocolate etc anymore, it did take me about 6 months to get to this stage.

[@awalsaani5310]

@@PF-gi9vv Thank you. Will really try that that out.

[@jackiealv6547]

@@awalsaani5310 did you try keto ? If so, did it work for you ? I just came across this video and I’ve known for a while that I have adrenal fatigue but I don’t know how to fix it . Keto was definitely not the answer for me because it only made me lose more weight . If you’ve found anything would you please share it ? Thank you

[@marthasisco9678]

[@kpfia301]

what causes this

[@drlam]

Muscle loss in adrenal fatigue is often due to hormonal imbalances and prolonged stress affecting metabolism.

[@gcvoon286]

Could the muscle weakness lead to hiatus hernia, weakness of the muscle result stomach pop into the upper part of the chest? By the way, could the problem happen to elderly taking too many regular medicine eg non selective beta blocker and suffered from adrenal fatigue?

[@drlam]

beta blockers can make people more tired. There are many etiologies for hiatal hernia, with diaphragm weakness being one of it.

[@gcvoon286]

@@drlam thank you for the reply, since beta blockers can make patient tired, can this medicine on long term prescription for elderly patients, eg carvedilol?

[@drlam]

@@gcvoon286 Have to consult your doctor about that. Don't stop your medication without consulting your doctor as you probably have underlying issues.

[@aoyama173]

What about.muscle cramp?

[@drlam]

muscle cramping can be electrolytes or mitochondrial energy issue

is the feeling seems like you can't feel the stretch of your muscle?

Muscle loss can indicate adrenal fatigue, often due to chronic stress. Proper nutrition and rest are key for recovery
