Re: Adrenal question

January 26, 2004

I take Raw Adrenal (Enzymatic Therapy) and if I take two on an empty stomach it

really hurts my stomach for a least an hour. What I do is this, I take my

Armour sublingually and when it is all dissolved, I wait maybe an hour and have

a piece of toast with my Raw Adrenal.

Who is the maker of your Raw Adrenal? Is it Enzymatic Therapy out of Green Bay

Wisconsin? That is the Raw Adrenal I take.

I am thinking that if you take more than recommended you may be asking for

trouble. I would take the desired/recommended amount that the company says to

take....then start you armour again, see what happens. It sure sounds like your

adrenals are totally shot. I found that my raw adrenal really really helped me

and I feel so much better.

Adrenal question

Saturday the only Adrenal I could find was Raw Adrenal 11,

hope this is will work until I can order the some isocort.

Since I can take this Raw Adrenal 11 with Armour then it

should be taken without food. The bottle says to take 2

capsules, would it be safe to take more for a few days? Is

my thinging in this right to assume that by taking medicine

for the Adrenal that its making things slow down. I still

feel anixous,jittery and nervous. Did not take any ARmour

yesterday and not sure about today.

Saturday I tried taking half dosage which was 45 mg and it

started everything racing again. Sure wished I knew how long

to skip the armour, dont want to start feeling worse. If you

have any coments on this I would sure appreciate it.

thanks

Hi ....does the bottle on that say to take with food? If not,

you're probably okay - otherwise, take it when you eat...it doesn't

have to be in the morning with your Armour. what it should do is

help you feel stronger, more endurance, less jittery as your adrenals

get stronger. If you do take more than the bottle says, spit the

dxose into 2 or three times a day. When my son was put on Cortef by

the doctor, he told him to stop Armour for at least a week, take the

Cortef, and then add in 1 grain Armour per day...but Cortef is

different ...it may work faster. and he had been on 90 mg. Armour

when he started with the Cortef....you can stop the Armour for a

couple of days and then reintroduce it at a smaller dose I would say

for a few days, and then work back up...give your adrenals time to

start recharging. when you have adrenal symptoms as your Armour dose

is increased, you do need to give them a little head start on the

Armour before you can expect your body to act differently from the

effects the Armour has had. They take time to get stronger. Good

luck!

Patti Sue,

Thanks, Yes, I do take the Raw Adrenal 11 from Enzymatic

Therapy. Also do you take both capsules at the same time or

one in the morning and one later in the day just like you do

the Armour? How long did it take you to start feeling

better, well like these feelings I have to go away. Dont

know how long to wait until I start with the ARmour again.

Hi , I take both pills at one time. It seems that, that is the best way

to take them for me. You may want to try it that way at first...if it doesn't

work for you ... try splitting them. But I believe that is when our bodies need

the most help is in the AM.

I hope that your jittery, nervous feelings go away quickly. You may also need

additional cortef...that was a God send for me when I needed it. I know of many

ladies on both adrenal support and cortisol/cortef. Cortisol is what calms the

body down in times of nervousness etc.

Let us all know when you have decided to re-sume your Armour. I know that you

will be feeling better soon. The Adrenal support is a wonderful feeling.

Hugs...PattiSue

I am assuming i will have the same issues as you and that is why i have

not ordered any tests. I recall other posts saying that time is of

importance regarding these tests. I am in Gemrany and doubt the tests

would return in time.

The blood pressure test of lieing down and then standing was normal for me. I

just thought it was odd that I failed the test because the light in eyes showed

adrenal fatigue and the saliva test showed adrenal fatigue. www.drrrind.com has

a checklist for adrenal fatigue symptoms.

wrote:

I have no way at this point to get my adrenals tested. I have done the

light test in the eyes on STTM and my eyes will constrict but then

flutter the whole time the light shines in them. The BP one i don't

have access w/o going to the doctor and having them take it and then i

am quite sure they will not do the lie down bit etc... The have the

machines and only chairs in the preliminary type room. >il docs here

are pretty anal about protocol - so no cortisol tests and i am sure

they will not do this blood pressure reading. We do not live some

where one can just go to a local market and check at the pharmacy

etc... Doc is the only way i know to get this reading. So is laying

down a necessity for this test? If i can get them to check the

readings from sitting to standing would this be acceptable or do i need

to lay down that long first? There is no way they will accomodate me

sitting or laying down somewhere that long first. If i were to lay

down i would then have to go to another wing for the actual room with

the BP machine.

I think i have been hypo for yrs - i have ant b's so the appearance of

Hashis is there. I am not on any medications at all never have been,

no surgeries etc... I am wondering how else i can test for Adrenal as

i am worried about starting Armour after reading some articles posted

by Durrant-Peatfield etc... that Adrenals should be taken care of

first.

Wondering if what to do.

Thanks.
