Hi and welcome to Healthcaremagic. Thank you for your query. I am Dr. Rommstein and I will try to help you as much as I can.

It will not destroy your adrenal gland but it may causes certain changes in hormonal levels. You should check your cortisol andaldosteron levels if you plan to take it frequently.

I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us.
Kindly regards. Wish you a good health.
