Episode #24: Breaking Adrenal Fatigue Food Myths with a Nutritionist

Breaking Adrenal Recovery Food Myths

with Holistic Nutritionist, Danielle Zies


With the influx of info on the internet, it can be so easy to get overwhelmed by how to approach food when you’re burnt out and struggling with your hormones. 

So much information, so many totally opposing points of view can make it hard enough for the average person to figure out how to eat-- add exhaustion, stress, and inability to make decisions to the mix (a common symptom of adrenal fatigue) and it becomes all the more difficult.  It’s enough to make people incredibly anxious when it comes to making food decisions and it can stop us from making any decisions or dietary changes period, which can keep us stuck in a variety of ways.

In this episode, our Co-founder of The Adrenal Recovery Collective and certified holistic nutritionist, Danielle Zies, helps to clear the air around some really common adrenal recovery dietary tips.

We discussed:

  • When it comes to eating for burnout, what should someone’s top focus be?

  • Is there any “diet” that you recommend specifically for adrenal fatigue that tends to do better than others? 

    • What about keto? 

    • What about cleanses and fasting? 

    • Elimination style diets-- when do they fit in?

  • How important is it to take out foods like gluten and dairy and is it important for everyone?

  • What dietary tips Danielle used when overcoming stage 3 adrenal fatigue.

We really hope you enjoy this episode!
