To emphasize how important this gland is, consider that the gonads (testicles or ovaries) of a man or woman could be removed and without any further medication that person would live. Without critical medical care, a patient would die shortly after the removal of the adrenal glands.
Eating foods that trigger an immune reaction can tax adrenal function. One of the more common food intolerances is gluten, a protein found in wheat, rye, barley, and oats (unless they are gluten-free oats). Dairy, eggs, soy, corn, and yeast are other foods that can cause inflammation and fatigue the adrenal glands.
