Nutri Adrenal & Betain

[scorpiojo]

well these both came today so I hope I can use and start feeling different and better... I don't feel any energy getting out of bed but gain energy towards the end of the day.. I read that's adrenal fatigue for you! I didn't have the time to test and get the results for Endo appt Aug 2nd.. Plus I can give the nutri Adrenal a go if it doesn't help it doesn't... Anyone had any success with the Adrenal stuff I have bought? The betaine will be helpful 😊 I take t3 at around 7AM

scorpio,

Go easy on the NA. Many find it extremely helpful but some members have complained of spaciness and weird head feelings.

Maybe just start with half a pill a day and see how you go for a week, and then increase slowly.

Take Betaine & Pepsin with your meals .. particularly meaty dinners.

T4 doesn't matter so much but T3 is too low. TSH is too high . Many members function best with a TSH of around 1.0 and T3 in upper third of range.

No thyroid antibodies. CRP shows inflammation in the body.

Keep supplementing as all nutrients are still low.

ok will do that... What's the GPs treatment for Adrenals? Do you know please? I will start low... Is it too late to take Geneva test at some point if the NA helps? Thanks x😊

scorpio,

I don't know what you mean.

Doctors don't consider overworked adrenals... only Addisons or Cushings Disease. In their eyes there is no middle ground.

Supplementing NA will skew a Genova Saliva Stress Test but you must have a base line from a previous test result ? ? .....

It is not advisable to supplement adrenal supports without knowing cortisol levels ? Your doctor will (most likely) never have heard of glandulars.

No I haven't tested for them before... I just feel that the sluggishness first thing fits in... I don't have masses of energy the rest of the day but do feel the best before bed... Other stuff too... I have taken half a tablet and would like to take the test, so should I not take NA until I do the test? Thanks 😊

scorpio,

Supplementing NA will skew your saliva test results.

If you are testing to get a base line (a true picture of your cortisol output) you shouldn't take NA until after the test.

[scorpiojo in reply to radd]

will it be ok after just the one? I took it this morning... I can order test today and take it next week, or have I messed it up by taking one tablet today... Thanks 😊

[radd in reply to scorpiojo]

Taking one tablet will be fine scorpio.

Can't say it's done a lot apart from a little light headed maybe... No more energy... So I will get the test today.. Thank you for taking the time 😊 x
