Adrenal Body Type Diet
Meals - Breakfast is best light, even with just a piece of fruit or a vegetable juice, but don't skip it. If you are in the process of rebuilding your adrenal glands, add protein like fish or fowl. Limit beef to once a month or less. Your largest meal may be at lunch or dinner.
Exercise - Best later in the day to release excess cortisol that has built up from the stress of daily activities and to prevent weight gain. Stationary activities build up energy in the body, while movement activities like running or swimming have a calming effect.
Diet - Include more raw than cooked vegetables, salads, and fruit, beans, rice, avocados, cheese, cottage cheese, almonds, sesame seeds and soups are good menu choices.

Adrenal Body Type Personality Profile
Adrenal body types are distinguished by their high energy and are, by nature, outgoing and charismatic
I have a quick, powerful energy, and approach life with a see-and-touch attitude. I can easily control and lead a crowd. I am highly competitive. My investigative mind likes to examine situations from alternative perspectives. I can survey facts to find practical, down-to-earth solutions. I can easily become bored – I have a short attention span, and like to move on when something becomes routine. I prefer to see what needs to be done, delegate the tasks, then oversee the work. I am action-oriented and like to be in total control of a project so I can determine the outcome. I often dive into something even when I’m not sure how to do it.
I am often unaware of my emotions until I have some form of an outburst. I am verbally uninhibited and often asks questions that other people wouldn’t. I tend to be a “people pleaser”, and I have difficulty saying “no” because I don’t like to feel left out. Sometimes this leads to over commitment on my part. I like to make a good impression, and I care deeply about my image and the approval of others.
My nature is fairly outgoing and charismatic. I can easily be charming to others. I usually have high energy, physical strength and endurance. I can come across as powerful and dynamic, and I generally make my presence known – my presence can be very commanding.
There is no sweeter pleasure than success – in every aspect of life. For it to be real, success has to have a physical expression, like cars, money, recognition, or acceptance – the bigger the better. My emotions are secondary to what I think. It is easy to ignore or suppress my emotions, until there is a sudden emotional explosion. Emotional outbursts are usually triggered by unrelated incidents. After a tirade, the air is clear – I don’t generally hold grudges, residuals or regrets.
