Adrenal Function and the Skin
by Elizabeth Bright | Sep 26, 2023 | Adrenal Library
Chronic stress is physiologically dangerous, but it’s particularly damaging to the skin. The skin is the largest organ of the body, protecting us from and interacting with our environment. It doesn’t just shield, it also interacts. Not only is the skin a component of the peripheral HPA axis that communicates with the HPA axis, but it is also a neuroendocrine system that responds to environmental stressors and maintains homeostasis.

As part of the adrenal stress response, it also controls how we metabolize protein and fat. The energy to run has to come from everywhere.
