At the end, some of it is in our heads?

Hmm I don´t quite understand. I thought stress caused adrenal fatigue, be it psycholoical, oxidative, whatever... Does stress increase inflammation? (After reading medical literature and coming back)... Of course it does!
Needless to say, I am going to read all his Brain-Gut articles and I encourage anyone with adrenal/HPA issues to do the same.
My melatonin is defficient, my IGF-1 is too high.
I actually don´t buy much this guy but he proposes some interesting things. I just hope he is wrong and curing HPA dysregulation is easier than all of that

Inflammation causes the blood brain barrier to become permeable due to cytokines. The CSF becomes dramatically altered in composition because when the blood brain barrier is permeable it allows the ions to get into the brain to disrupt signaling of the PVN. This is the true source of adrenal fatigue. It is brain signaling problem not an adrenal gland issue. If the signaling is off the output of the gland becomes altered, and as such the labs look bad. Often this is done with a adrenal stress index, but that does not go far enough. If you look at IGF-1 and melatonin levels you will see further evidence of altered signaling at the brain level.
