The worst anxiety I hav seen was from low cortiosl with low thyroid. Couplr that

with highish DHEA adn you can have a nightmare existence. SOME people get

anxiety form high cortilsl others do not.

Hi Dan

Ashwaganda regulates hypothalamus/pituitary/adrenal axis..This means it

normalizes HPA axis function. Some adaptogens tend to give some hyperactivity

while others are calmer.some are more immune modulator some work more on stress

system.Some of them may help with libido problems.an adaptogen may work fine for

some while it may not fit so well to some other.

I also tried it. I found it to be little hot(giving hyperactivity) for me. I am

fine with Relora which gives me calming effect.But it might be fine at small

dosages in a formula.Needs to be tried.

best wishes.

Cortisol high or low-- anxiety/insomnia

I'm confused... does high or low cortisol cause anxiety? My doctor

says I have anxiety because my cortisol is HIGH.

Also, does ashwaghanda raise or lower cortisol?

Thanks,

Dan

It can happen at all stages. I had it in my early stages of higher cortisol,

I had it worst at stage 7 with low cortisol and low DHEA. I think it is more

adrenaline related from cortisol being off than DHEA related.

And a person can have panic attacks with both high and low

cortisol...anytime the adrenals are not balanced.
