Should you get an adrenal test?

In general, if you feel happy and well, have steady energy and emotions, sleep soundly seven to nine hours a night, wake up feeling rested, recover well from stress, and maintain a healthy weight without dieting, then your adrenals are probably doing well.
On the other hand, if your energy lags during the day, you feel emotionally unbalanced much of the time, you sleep poorly or less than seven hours a night, can’t lose excess weight even while dieting, use caffeine or carbohydrates as “pick-me-ups” — these are all red flags indicating adrenal insufficiency.

Turmeric -- the spice that gives curry and other Far Eastern fare its strong, distinctive flavor -- may lower your risk of pancreatic cancer. So find that takeout number.

(Find out why Indian food after a workout may make you feel a whole lot better.)
