That being said, here is a home remedy with a mixture of herbs that may help support those with Addison’s disease:
Ingredients:
- Ashwagandha root powder (1 teaspoon)
- Licorice root powder (1 teaspoon)
- Ginger root powder (1 teaspoon)
- Holy basil leaves (Tulsi) (1 teaspoon)
- Cinnamon powder (1/2 teaspoon)
- Honey (1 teaspoon)
- Water (1 cup)

These herbs have been traditionally used in Ayurvedic medicine to support adrenal function and the immune system, which may be helpful in managing the symptoms of Addison’s disease. However, it is important to consult with a qualified healthcare practitioner before using this or any other herbal remedy.
