According to a 2025 survey by the American Psychological Association, about 49% of Americans report experiencing daily stress. While acute stress defends the body against immediate danger, chronic stress, which is typical among adults, takes a toll on the body and leaves it prone to illness.
Chronic stress disrupts the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, the system that controls the body’s stress response, and drives an imbalances in cortisol, the stress hormone produced by the adrenal glands. Over time, the glands release cortisol irregularly, leading to fatigue, health problems, brain fog, weakened immunity, and changes in mood and weight.
Specially formulated nutraceuticals from the Happy Hormone Cottage help support healthy adrenal function, overcome nutrient deficiencies, guard against chronic sickness, and achieve numerous other health benefits.
Schedule an appointment with our team to win the battle against adrenal fatigue and take a step toward a healthier, more balanced life. We can advise which nutraceutical products, like Adrenal Calm, can help rid you of that “tired and wired” feeling.

More About the HPA Axis & Its Role in Adrenal Fatigue
Your hypothalamus is the part of your brain that detects stress. It signals the pituitary gland, which stimulates the adrenals to produce and release stress hormones. This is the essence of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis (HPA axis).
This system has enabled us to effectively respond to stress throughout human history by engaging the ‘fight or flight’ response. But today’s high-stress modern environment, full of traffic, work, financial stress, stress from chronic health issues, and even consuming a lot of caffeine, keeps the HPA axis constantly engaged.
HPA Axis Dysfunction Gives Rise to Adrenal Fatigue
Adrenal burnout is caused by stress-induced HPA axis dysfunction. When your brain constantly stimulates your adrenal glands to produce stress hormones, it is incredibly unhealthy for your whole body.
Not only are your mood, sleep, libido, immune system, blood sugar, appetite, and thyroid affected, but it is also extremely taxing on your adrenal glands and micronutrient reserves. Your adrenal glands must work very hard to keep up with the ongoing demands of engagement, which eventually causes them to work less effectively.
It is also harmful to micronutrient reserves since Vitamin C, trace minerals, magnesium, B vitamins, antioxidants, and other nutrients are all needed to produce stress hormones. To make things worse, many adults already don’t have enough of these micronutrients needed to produce stress hormones, aiding in stress response dysfunction.
Is Cortisol, the Stress Hormone, a Friend or Foe?
Cortisol is one of the primary hormones released by the adrenal glands in response to stress. Although cortisol’s function is to keep you alive in dangerous situations, sustained stress leads to cortisol dysregulation, which may physically damage your health.
Chronically elevated cortisol levels can trigger immune suppression, weight gain and fat storage, blood sugar imbalance, muscle atrophy, sex hormone dysregulation, and various other symptoms.
How Adrenal Support Can Help You
Happy Hormone Cottage’s Adrenal Support treatment uses patented formulations to promote a healthy cortisol curve, which peaks upon waking and is lowest at bedtime.
Recommended for anxiety, insomnia, and fuzzy thinking, Adrenal Calm works best when combined with Adrenal Support 2, which helps with fatigue, energy, and libido. These two products are designed to be used together to simulate a healthy cortisol curve. These supplements are created exclusively for our customers and cannot be obtained elsewhere.
