What is Adrenal Support?

"Adrenal Support" is a term given to a variety of alternative treatments including nutraceuticals, massage oils, and homeopathic remedies. They often have a rationale of decreasing the effects of stress by modulating adrenal function, though there is no orthodox scientific evidence to support this.
