People who accept adrenal fatigue as a condition believe that it is caused when the adrenal glands are unable to keep up with the demands of the body. Frequent illness or infection, physical stress brought on by poor nutrition or an injury, emotional or mental stress, and environmental factors like exposure to chemicals or pollutants can all cause these symptoms. Practitioners believe that, though the adrenal glands continue to function during these experiences, they are unable to do so at the level required to maintain optimal body function.
