Guest guest Posted November 3, 2003 Report Share Posted November 3, 2003 Only use relora if your son is producing too MUCH cortisol. It is likely he is actually producing too little. For adrenal cortex extract give two each morning for several months. Also consider using pantethine, sea salt and licorice extract. After about five or six weeks you should quite clearly see some results, but it could three to five months before you are on top of this problem, and even then you will want to keep supplementing at lower doses for several more months. I believe our son's adrenal problems were largely due to mercury and viral damage. Several rounds of ALA chelation has made a big difference and produced very satisfying synergies with his other supplements. Supplementation on its own helps manage but not defeat the problem - you need chelation and/or anti-virals to beat it for once and for all. Good luck.

Guest guest Posted November 4, 2003 Report Share Posted November 4, 2003 I don't know how to measure cortisol, but if his adrenals are underactive he will have too little cortisol. If they are overactive, he will have too much. I suspect his adrenals aree exhausted and underactive.

Guest guest Posted November 5, 2003 Report Share Posted November 5, 2003 I think in some kids the shock to their systems at an early age sets up a chronic high stress biofeedback loop that can only be broken by something liker relora. Mike's cortisol level recently tested throught the roof. A test done 10 plus years ago showed extremely elevated norepinephrine, the " fight or flight " hormone. relora has been of great benefit to him, partially I believe by breaking the loop that was set up by his extreme reaction to his first DPT shot.
