Guest guest Posted February 15, 2012 Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 Hi , my experience wih Nax has been positive. Like you it did have an instant effect for me (though later on I also needed HC - but did that under supervision - Dr P). I think it's a good idea to build it up slowly. If you do have adrenal problems, it's important to go very slowly and carefully and even if you do feel much better, just to do a bit at a time. I've learnt the hard way unfortunately and have crashed my adrenals on several occassions. The other thing I've found helpful is to keep a diary - it was recommended by the m.e. specialists and it's just a simple way of showing how much activity/rest/sleep you have - you use a different colour for each thing but keep it simple otherwise you can't manage to keep it up. It gives you a benchmark. Back to NAX, I would increase by half every 4 days. I take 3 a day aswell as HC - but see how you feel. Don't take it later than 1pm. Really glad to hear you're making some progress.

Guest guest Posted February 15, 2012 Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 , if you are going to do the 24 hour salivary test - THEN DO NOT TAKE ANY NUTRIA ADRENAL EXTRA. This will make the saliva test results completely flawed and will be a waste of your time and money. Please wait until AFTER the test has been done. You should stop NAE for at least two weeks before doing the test. Luv - Sheila Hello all, I started on Nutri adrenal extra today, I decided to start on only half a tablet with breakfast to bed myself in slowly. I was apprehensive at first as I am always worried about taking anything after my horrible reaction to thyroxine. So I can't believe the effect it had on me, I had energy! cleaned the house and even went for a walk! unfortunatly this didn't last too long.

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 Would you normally be able to clean the house and go for a walk? I would beware of doing too much when you get a bit more energy. Energy is like money in the bank. You can leave it there to accrue interest (ie let it do some healing in the body), or you can spend it all and go broke, or even get an overdraft and crash.
