did rhodiola throw me off?

[Guest guest]

Prior to starting T3 I'd tested for cortisol, among other tests. Val, you'd

mentioned these saliva results looked ok.

I was, however, taking rhodiola at the time. Could rhodiola have affected these

results?

I got them through ZRT and disclosed on the info sheet I was taking rhodiola and

the instructions did not say rhodiola was something that needed to be stopped

prior...I just wanted to be sure...

Cortisol levels:

AM 8.1 (3.7 - 9.5)

Noon 1.6 (1.2 - 3.0)

Evening 0.8 (0.6 - 1.9)

Before Bed 0.4 (0.4 - 1.0)

Thanks,
