Question about adrenal supplements

I started taking 100mg of adrenal cortex. After a few weeks I increased the dose to 300mg. At 300mg I started to improve and get better, however a few weeks later I was unable to sleep. I was awake for a whole week so I stopped taking the adrenal cortex. When I stopped taking the adrenal cortex my body temperature dropped from 37c to 36c during the week that I was unable to sleep.

Does anyone have any ideas why I got insomnia or why my body temperature dropped, it's confusing. I start to get better but then I get insomnia and have to come off the adrenal cortex, I'm going round in circles. Thanks

Jc72,

Perhaps 300mg was too much and you should go back to taking 100mg.

Thanks. I spent 3 mths on 100mg and barely made any progress, my blood pressure results were up and down.

jc72,

There's scope to increase between 100mg and 300mg.
