High Cortisol

[Cleo2467]

Does anyone have any advice on how to heal my adrenal glands? I've done the genova saliva test which has come back with elevated levels of cortisol throughout the day.

I have been using holy basil with good results.

how do you dose with this?how can you tell it is helping?

It depends on how high your cortisol levels were & if high then you need to find out why they are so high. Have you been on long term steroids? Another cause is a benign tumour on either your adrenal glands or in your pituitary gland.

A steroid nasal spray for a few weeks thats it and i hadn't used it for a couple of weeks prior to the test.
