When we talk about immunity and overall wellness in our pets, we often think of vaccinations, nutrition, or regular exercise. But one often-overlooked part of the body that plays a vital role in maintaining your pet’s health and immunity is the adrenal glands. These small but powerful organs are crucial in regulating your pet’s response to stress, energy levels, and immune function.
In this blog, we will explore the fascinating world of adrenal glands and pet immunity and discuss how to support your pet’s adrenal health naturally.
Your pet has two adrenal glands, one located on top of each kidney. Though tiny in size, they are responsible for producing essential hormones that influence many of the body’s systems. These hormones include:
These hormones are crucial for your pet’s ability to respond to stress, maintain immune balance, regulate metabolism, and stay energized.
The adrenal glands don’t work in isolation, they’re part of a broader system known as the HPA axis (Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal axis), which controls your pet’s hormonal and stress responses.
Let’s look at three major areas impacted by adrenal function:
Cortisol, one of the main hormones produced by the adrenal cortex, plays a direct role in converting fats, proteins, and carbohydrates into usable energy. When adrenal function is disrupted, it can result in symptoms like fatigue, weight gain or loss, muscle weakness, or digestive issues.
One of cortisol’s key roles is to keep the immune system in check. While a healthy amount of cortisol helps modulate inflammation and immune responses, too much or too little can suppress the immune system, making pets more vulnerable to infections, allergies, and chronic illnesses.
Whether it’s environmental stress, separation anxiety, illness, or pain, the adrenal glands help your pet cope. Chronic stress can cause adrenal fatigue, which affects your pet’s resilience and recovery. In turn, this can disrupt sleep, digestion, and immune function.
Adrenal disorders are not uncommon in dogs and cats, and they can significantly compromise the immune system. Two of the most recognized conditions are Cushing’s disease and Addison’s disease.
Cushing’s disease occurs when the adrenal glands produce too much cortisol. Common signs include:
Excess cortisol suppresses immune responses, leaving pets more prone to bacterial, viral, or fungal infections. It also slows wound healing and increases inflammation throughout the body.
Addison’s disease, on the other hand, results from underactive adrenal glands, leading to a deficiency of cortisol and aldosterone. This can cause:
Because cortisol helps regulate immune responses, a lack of it can cause immune dysfunction, poor stress tolerance, and frequent illness. In severe cases, an Addisonian crisis can be life-threatening without prompt veterinary care.
Whether your pet has a diagnosed adrenal condition or you simply want to keep their endocrine and immune systems strong, there are several natural ways to support adrenal gland health.
Chronic stress is a leading contributor to adrenal imbalance. Consider the following tips:
A nutrient-dense, species-appropriate diet is essential for adrenal support. Focus on:
For pets with adrenal disorders, feeding smaller, more frequent meals can help stabilize blood sugar levels and reduce the workload on the adrenal glands, which are involved in regulating metabolism and stress responses.
At NHV, we’re passionate about using plant-based remedies to support wellness. For adrenal and immune health, here are a few standout products:
The adrenal glands and pet immune system are closely linked
The adrenal glands and pet immune system are closely linked. When the adrenal glands are functioning well, your pet is better able to handle stress, fight off infections, and maintain vitality. However, when they’re overworked or underperforming, it can lead to immune compromise, hormonal imbalances, and a host of health challenges.
If you suspect your pet may be experiencing adrenal dysfunction or if you want to explore natural ways to support their health, reach out to your veterinarian and explore NHV’s wide range of herbal support supplements designed to work alongside conventional care.

Symptoms of overactive or underactive adrenal glands can often be mistaken for normal signs of aging. If your furkiddo is looking a little dull, doesn’t want to play or their appetite is all over the place, they may be suffering from an adrenal imbalance and malnutrition. Our pet adrenal support is formulated to support and balance the adrenal glands, aid effective detoxification, and deliver vital nutrients to support metabolism and other important body processes.

Our pet adrenal support is formulated to support and balance the adrenal glands, aid effective detoxification, and deliver vital nutrients to support metabolism and other important body processes.
They are two small glands located next to the kidneys that work alongside the pituitary and hypothalamus glands to help regulate digestion, the immune system, and most importantly, the body’s response to stress.
When your furkiddo is stressed, their adrenal glands produce the hormones that stimulate a fight or flight response. This primal reaction can be a real lifesaver in many dangerous situations, but problems may develop when your dog or cat's adrenal system releases too much or too little of these glucocorticoid hormones. Stress can be triggered by many factors such as surgery, trauma, a change in routine, illness or even extreme weather.
Two of the most common adrenal gland disorders are Cushing’s disease (too much cortisol in the bloodstream) and Addison’s disease (too little cortisol and aldosterone).
Cushing's Disease or hyperadrenocorticism is caused by the overproduction of the hormone ACTH which is then released into the bloodstream and stimulates the adrenal glands to produce increased levels of cortisol. The adrenal glands can be pushed into overdrive from a few different causes, but most commonly, Cushing’s is caused by a tumor on the pituitary gland, known as an adenoma. As scary as this sounds, it may not be life-threatening, and if caught early, your pet may be able to maintain a good quality of life and minimize symptoms. If left untreated, this type of tumor may become metastatic and develop into cancer. The telltale signs of Cushing's disease often resemble normal aging due to symptoms like lethargy, weight gain, and a dull and dry coat. Also, age is most likely a factor as Cushing's does not usually develop in dogs until the age of ten. Although less common, Cushing’s (too much cortisol) can affect our feline friends too.
Certain breeds of dogs are more prone to Cushing’s, partly because certain breeds are more prone to stress. Poodles, Jack Russell Terriers, Beagles, and Dachshunds are a few dog breeds that are more likely to develop this kind of glandular disorder.
Addison’s Disease or hypoadrenocorticism occurs when the adrenal glands fail to produce enough hormones. Standard Poodles, Great Danes, Bearded Collies, Portuguese Water Dogs and West Highland White Terriers are some of the breeds that may be more susceptible to this glandular disorder. Addison’s Disease (too little hormone) is more common in young to middle-aged dogs and in some purebred cats.
There are two types of Addison’s Disease, primary and secondary. The primary type of Addison’s is essentially a rare autoimmune disorder where the immune system attacks the adrenal glands and damages the adrenal cortex. If your furry friend is battling tumors, other diseases or is taking vet-prescribed medications to treat Cushing's, these may be contributing factors to an underactive adrenal cortex, which leads to secondary Addison’s Disease caused by a pituitary gland tumor, long-term exposure to steroids or a side effect of suddenly pausing a medication.
The symptoms of adrenal disorders can be similar to various other health conditions in pets so your vet may recommend some in-depth diagnostic tests like a CBC, a chemistry panel, electrolyte tests and ACTH-stimulation tests to investigate your furkiddo’s symptoms.
For adrenal disease in cats or dogs with possible malnutrition (from diarrhea and excessive urination), we'd suggest adding NHV’s Adrenal Super Support and Nutritional Balance Kit to their daily meals. This bundle of natural remedies contains Supraglan, Milk thistle and Multi Essentials which have been specifically formulated for pets to gently re-balance the adrenal glands, reduce inflammation, and eliminate toxins.
An adrenal gland disorder impacts so many areas of the body. We would recommend a holistic pet adrenal support that connects and aids each of the affected areas while minimizing side effects to help your little one get their health back on track. Suplaglan is an all-natural blend of herbs specially formulated to focus on all areas affected by glandular disorders like Cushing’s or Addison's Disease. Wild yam helps restore hormone balance, licorice encourages hormone production, and borage naturally stimulates the endocrine system to rebalance adrenal cortex function and support a calmer body and mind. In addition to helping the adrenal and endocrine system, Suplaglan also contains herbs that support the kidneys, liver, and immune system, which we know are vital to maintaining a healthy body. Milk Thistle provides additional support to the liver, kidneys, and is known to encourage cell regeneration. And Multi Essentials help replenish vital nutrients that your pet may have lost from increased urination, diarrhea and a fluctuating metabolism (from unstable hormone levels).
Your pet’s health means everything to us. For our pet adrenal support kits, we have worked with a holistic veterinarian and a master herbalist to formulate gentle yet effective remedies to focus on the areas of the body most affected by Cushing’s and Addison’s disease. For any questions or concerns about your little one’s stress levels or adrenal health, don’t hesitate to reach out to an NHV Pet Expert - we are here to help!

Addison’s disease affects many areas of the body and can be mistaken for normal signs of aging. If your furkiddo isn’t keeping their meals down, is feeling lethargic and is losing weight, they may be suffering from Addison’s disease. Our adrenal supplement kits are specifically formulated to fight the symptoms of Addison's disease in dogs and cats and support all areas affected by underactive adrenal glands.

Our adrenal supplement kits are specifically formulated to fight the symptoms of Addison's disease in dogs and cats and support all areas affected by underactive adrenal glands.
Addison’s Disease or hypoadrenocorticism occurs when the adrenal glands do not produce enough hormones. The adrenal glands are located just in front of the kidneys and have two parts – the cortex and the medulla. Your little one’s adrenal cortex produces mineralocorticoids (e.g. Aldosterone), which helps to control the balance of sodium and potassium salts, and glucocorticoids, which are involved in metabolizing nutrients, reducing inflammation and releasing hormones like estrogen and progesterone. The adrenal medulla plays a vital role in managing the body’s response to stress and low blood sugar levels. It releases epinephrine (adrenaline) and norepinephrine, which increase heart rate, blood pressure, blood glucose levels and slowing down digestion.
Addison’s Disease (underactive adrenal glands) occurs more frequently in young to middle-aged pups and in some purebred kitties. Dog breeds that may be more likely to develop Addison’s disease are: Standard Poodles, Great Danes, Bearded Collies, Portuguese Water Dogs and West Highland White Terriers. Although the cause is unknown, in many cases, it develops as an autoimmune disease. Other causes include destruction of the adrenal gland by a tumor, hemorrhage or infarction. It can also be caused by vet-prescribed medications for treating overactive adrenal glands (Cushing's disease).
Symptoms include regular vomiting, decreased appetite, weight loss, and sometimes dark diarrhea. Lethargy, depression, and muscle weakness are also common signs. Sometimes fur loss, and increased urination are present as well. For canines and felines Addison’s Disease in , we'd suggest adding NHV’s Addison’s Disease Essential Support Kit to their daily meal plan. This bundle of natural remedies contains Supraglan, and Milk thistle which have been formulated to work together to re-balance the adrenal glands, reduce inflammation, and encourage gentle detoxification and tissue regeneration.
An adrenal gland disorder impacts many areas of the body and can be easily mistaken for natural signs of aging. We would recommend a holistic aid specifically for Addison’s disease in dogs and cats that provides multiple organ support as well as gently stimulate the endocrine system. Suplaglan is a blend of natural ingredients specially formulated to support dogs and cats with Addison's Disease. Wild Yam and Licorice stimulate adrenal gland function, while Borage contains natural precursors of adrenal gland hormones to help trigger the endocrine system. Suplaglan also contains many ingredients with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties that support healthy liver, kidney and immune response. Milk Thistle provides additional support to the liver and kidneys and is especially helpful for pets with a compromised immune system or exposure to harmful chemicals.
Your pet’s health means everything to us. For our Addison’s Disease pet support kit, we believe in taking an integrative approach that connects and aids each of the affected areas while minimizing side effects. Our all-natural liquid formulation makes it easy to hide in food or a favorite treat. For any questions or concerns about your little one’s adrenal health, we are always happy to help.

Dog breeds that may be more likely to develop Addison’s disease are: Standard Poodles, Great Danes, Bearded Collies, Portuguese Water Dogs and West Highland White Terriers. Although the cause is unknown, in many cases, it develops as an autoimmune disease. Other causes include destruction of the adrenal gland by a tumor, hemorrhage or infarction. It can also be caused by vet-prescribed medications for treating overactive adrenal glands (Cushing's disease).
Symptoms include regular vomiting, decreased appetite, weight loss, and sometimes dark diarrhea. Lethargy, depression, and muscle weakness are also common signs. Sometimes fur loss, and increased urination are present as well. For canines and felines Addison’s Disease in , we'd suggest adding NHV’s Addison’s Disease Essential Support Kit to their daily meal plan. This bundle of natural remedies contains Supraglan, and Milk thistle which have been formulated to work together to re-balance the adrenal glands, reduce inflammation, and encourage gentle detoxification and tissue regeneration.
An adrenal gland disorder impacts many areas of the body and can be easily mistaken for natural signs of aging. We would recommend a holistic aid specifically for Addison’s disease in dogs and cats that provides multiple organ support as well as gently stimulate the endocrine system. Suplaglan is a blend of natural ingredients specially formulated to support dogs and cats with Addison's Disease. Wild Yam and Licorice stimulate adrenal gland function, while Borage contains natural precursors of adrenal gland hormones to help trigger the endocrine system. Suplaglan also contains many ingredients with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties that support healthy liver, kidney and immune response. Milk Thistle provides additional support to the liver and kidneys and is especially helpful for pets with a compromised immune system or exposure to harmful chemicals.
