Omg yes I can’t stand the heat even in winter
Hi Katt, you might find Dr. Neville's blog on salt to be helpful:

Take care,
Suzanne
After having heat exhaustion last July due to heat intolerance I used air conditioning in my car the whole winter. It's crazy but it was the only way to stay cool after completing jobs. When doing strenuous work I would get extremely hot and my body couldn't cool itself down for whatever reason. Now I'm here in the my house waiting for winter to come around again so I can live a little. Sorry your going through this...
It's more of a psychological thing for me. I can't stand sweat and het together and I'm indian. I can't help but get really irritated. Physically my body can tolerate good or even better than most people. I don't swear often, and my tolerance is high, like when my friends are feeling hot and sweaty, I'm feeling ok. So sometimes they ask me if I even feel hot or not. But when I do i am very irritatable.
Recently, I had a middle ear minor infection. Since then I feel hotter than before , comparatively
I definitely feel the effects of heat. Symptoms get worse: fatigue, pain, headaches, pressure in my body.
There is a week of really hot weather on the forecast so I wanted to prepare for how to handle that. Salt always helps to eleviate the symptoms a bit.
As a highly sensitive person I also try to avoid the bright lights and to wear a scarf or a hat. Just do whatever I can to make the heat bearable so that also my adrenals can rest.

Hi Marketa, I'm so glad this video was helpful for you! Dr. Neville also has a lot of additional helpful information on his website if you would like to learn about some more ways to help support your adrenals. 🙂

I have adrenal fatigue. On days where I feel lightheaded, anxious or I have an inner vibration and I remember to go have 1/8 - 1/4 teaspoon Redmond salt it wipes the symptoms away almost immediately.
Hi Alvina, it's so great that you know exactly what your body needs during those times!

Since childhood when I was super healthy, I’ve never tolerated high temps; I’m still healthy, but anything over 80F and I become fatigued trying to do physical things like hiking or golf. I take extra salt, but still get red as I get tired.
Hi Dean, it is interesting how our bodies are all different and have different tolerance levels. If you do try increasing your Celtic sea salt intake, you'll have to check back in with us and let us know if you've found it to be helpful. I know it makes such a positive difference for Dr. Neville's patients.🙂
Take care,
Suzanne
My question is, how can I combat this? I have high blood pressure, so I've been told low salt. I feel so bad and nauseous in the heat I gag and get very dizzy.
The weird thing, though, is that my regular body temperature is ALWAYS low 96° no higher than 97° And I never run a fever, not even when I had covid. Shouldn't I run cool and not hot? TIA
That's a great question for Dr. Neville! He's hosting a Q&A here on TH-cam (Facebook too) on Thursday, May 23rd at 4:00 p.m. ET. I've added your question to his list - I hope you can join us!
Dr. Neville’s symptom assessment tool will help you to determine if you might have an underlying adrenal problem.

YES, HEAT 🔥 intolerance! Extreme fatigue, weakness & sweating! I have hypertension & am concerned about too much salt. I do drink lots of water & low glucose electrolytes " Body Armor Lite". I stay out of the hot weather (as much as possible, living in FL) & no more hot showers. My A/C electric bill is very high. My work environment (office nurse) is usually cool!
When I do have salt I use pink Himalayan. Thank you for sharing your information!
Hi Maggie, celtic sea salt isn't typically a problem in our patients with hypertension, it is more the processed table salt that is an issue. It's still good to be cautious as you're introducing new things. You can read more about Dr. Neville's salt recommendations here:

This is interesting. I do quite a bit better with heat it seems than cold. I do eat Celtic salt when I season food or put a tiny bit in my drinking water and I have also done electrolyte supplements and also take a really good supplement that way. I do sometimes have a hard time sleeping at night in a hot room and I sometimes don’t sleep for other reasons which is one of the reasons I suspect adrenal fatigue plus I tend to get anxious or stressed out about things more than it seems I should. The weird thing when I’m hot at night though, I often have a hard time just throwing off the blankets for very long before I want them back again. A hot car is harder for me too sometimes.
Occasional heat will just get to me and very occasionally I’ll feel very sleepy in bright sunlight and sensitive to it.
I am more sensitive to being cold most of the time and I will layer like crazy sometimes and I don’t like to go anywhere in the evening during these warmer months w/o a sweater or something to throw on in case I start to get chilly.
Ive been dealing with anxiety disorder for over a decade. I have heat intolerance and hot but especially in direct sunlight. I suffered heat exhaustion last year and now its even worse. I cant be in the heat at all without getting sick. Im hiding from the sun all day and i hate it. People think im weird and overreacting. I own a business and had shut business down 2 times already. My doctors can't find anything. I hope salt helps me.
That all sounds very stressful, but also quite common for people with an underlying adrenal problem. I hope the salt offers you some relief with the heat intolerance!

@DrAndrewNeville thank you Dr Andrew!
omg , sounds like me , i also had heat exhaustion last year and i cant go out and tolerate the heat from the car in the parking lot to the store, coconut was helps me i take it everywhere.
@@12hunter100 same here... I carry a spray bottle everywhere now that it's summer. It gets above 110 degrees where I live in the summer. I hope you get better.
My veins are throbbing through these super hot days. I had to sit in the kiddie pool and take showers. Idk why? I have ehlers danlos and many other things, disautonomia and pots like symptoms on a good day. The heat i cannot handle the last 5 years?
I'm so sorry you're struggling with so many challenging symptoms associated with Adrenal Fatigue -which is much more than just a problem with sluggish adrenal glands -it affects our entire physiology: nervous system, hormones and brain!

Try b1 and half your body weight in oz of water with roughly 1/4 tsp of sea salt per 33 oz of water.
You definitely described my symptoms, I think I burnt my adrenals out for a variety of reasons. I experienced a lot of trauma as a child and then I was forced to get out on my own as a teenager so that was extra stress and then I got addicted to coffee and I think that was the last straw. Every supplement I take gives me brain fog, it seems like nothing works.

@@DrAndrewNeville thanks
I have a very similar history, I get you. I also had to move like 11 times during a few years. I wish you well on the recovery ☺️
@@marketa4074 yes I had to change high schools four times in one year, I think if I didn’t go through so much as a child that I’d be able to handle regular stress and thanks 🤗 I wish you well also.
What about for POTS? I’m miserable above 70 degrees. I take in lots of salt
I feel like I pee out exactly what I drink within 10 mins

i have no diagnosis of this but im sure i have extreme heat intolerance, im not overweight, im not suffering from anything health wise besides anxiety, i cannot go outside in anything more than 25 degrees celcius , 5 minutes outside in anything more than that i sweat like ive been running a marathon, my head is literally looking like i dipped it in a bucket of water, this makes me suffer and during the summer i never go outside, i stay indoors with A/C and maybe only go out a little bit after the sun is down but this also makes me suffer if its too hot, besides sweating too much i also feel dizzy and that i want to vomit if i step outside in summer
I hope the recommendations in this video are helpful for the symptoms you are experiencing. If you're needing extra help in healing from Adrenal Fatigue, please don't hesitate to schedule a complimentary call with one of our Patient Coordinators and she'll be happy to help you get started.

I feel like a prisoner in my house because everybody thinks I'm crazy. I have adrenal insuffiency I been on prednisone over 2 yrs & there is no dr or Endocrine Dr around Gadsden, AL that ever said heat or cold was related to my AI. I have to do most things at night. There's something's you just can't do at night. I hate this stuff and nobody understands it. I have just about stopped all my dr visits and just get my medication called in. I'm going thru joint issues now and it's affected my mood. I can't do things I want to do or need to because of this condition. Glad to see something that links heat/cold to adrenals. Thank you

Can you heal after being on prednisone for this long? I have no stress response I have such fatigue and side effects from just the medicine. It's summer time and I have to do most everything at night. I know if I start getting infection because I fall asleep any moment I sit down. I can't do anything I use to do and I had to get my granny to come live with me. She is 75 it's like blind leading blind. I take supplements that are proven to help avoid things that are proven to make worst but my life has become so unfunctional due to this and I can't imagine being on this to live rest of my life. I have been very fortunate to avoid crisis because I have seen the symtoms b4 they got to critical but needless to say if I was in accident etc I could not do anything about it. I take therapy to help with my emotions but I just can't seem to function. My granny is chosen my parents are not alive others live far away. There is no dr here I go to uab in Birmingham AL but getting appts are so hard my last appt was changed 3x im waiting again till 6/17 for just a tele health. I think I have gone to another level or im needing something my blood pressure stays too low and I take 10 mg pred a day

Mmy doctor didn't know why I was having heat problems ALL the time, so I asked if there was such a thing as a 24/7 hot flash and he assured me there was. My last doctor kept telling my husband to keep me off salt completely, telling him salt is bad... How do I find a doctor who understands what I am going through?

Is it hyperhidrosis a symptom?
Sweating is a function of the Autonomic Nervous System and the ANS is one part of the Stress Response System. When the SRS is not working properly some people sweat excessively, others not at all.

Thank you so much Dr. Neville for discussing this issue. For me, it was both extremes. I would overheat just doing the barest minimum of exercise like walking and then get really cold just by remaining still. I used to wear layers of clothing just to help regulate my body temperature depending on whatever activity I was doing. All the doctors ever told me was that it was probably hormone mediated and likely as a result of autoinflammatory condition I was later diagnosed with.
You're very welcome! Unfortunately, most doctors, although well meaning, don't have a comprehensive understanding about how involved the adrenal glands are in helping with temperature regulation and a long list of other important functions.
Thankfully, as your body heals, temperature regulation should balance itself out. If you'd like to join our community group, it's a great place to learn more!

I had for 2 years and recovered from adrenal insufficiency with CFS /PVS 20 years ago. But cv19 retriggered symptoms and noticeable heat intolerance (no hot showers, no time in the sun, no exercise above gentle walking or isometrics in 70° or less). Fortunately addressing long covid thru Histsmine Intolerance mostly resolved this, since I live in central CA (108° currently). I can feel a bit of air hunger and weakness if I stay out too long, but mostly function normally. I drink Dr Berg's electrolyte supplement and amply salt my food.
Glad you're feeling better! ~Kim, Community Coordinator

What about Potassium? I keep reading that an adrenal cocktail is salt and potassium, so I was taking salt and potassium. I think it was making me worse. Later I read that I should not be taking potassium if I have adrenal issues and in fact that it should be avoided. I am so confused on this part. Thanks!

Be Well,

I’ve seen other videos that say you shouldn’t have salt because it’s bad for your kidneys but your adrenals sit on top of your kidneys, so now I’m confused.
Hello 8181red, the quality of salt matters. Dr. Neville recommends unrefined, unprocessed Celtic sea salt. You can read more about why salt is so helpful for Adrenal Fatigue patients in his blog:
drandrewneville.com/sea-salt-and-adrenal-fatigue/
Be Well,
Suzanne
@@DrAndrewNeville what about the salt called real salt, I think it’s made by Redmonds and they sell it at Whole Foods.
How do you take the salt???
