Tired adrenals can cause many symptoms, including fatigue, poor sleep and weight gain. Chronically high cortisol levels are an indicator of excessive stress, which can contribute to heart disease, diabetes and breast cancer. Low DHEA can be a marker of aging and a cause of foggy thinking and low energy.
