Guest guest Posted January 29, 2008 Report Share Posted January 29, 2008 That is the one I was on, . Only problem is he doesn't say how much cortisol you are getting, how much thyroid T3 and T4 (or anything else for that matter). " Ingredients: A proprietary blend containing porcine adrenal, gonad, hypothalamus, pituitary and thyroid concentrates processed to remove hormones. " It isn't cheap either. I needed two of the 180 tablet bottles per month to follow his protocol and just that cost me $120 a month. I used to buy half a year's worth when they went on sale. Cheri -----Original Message----- This one looks to be good: http://www.futureformulations.com/store/adrenal-rebuilder-tm-p6.html With high cortiosl it might be helpful to star t the Armour ad low thyroid can be one of the causes of HIGH cortiosl. -- .

Guest guest Posted January 29, 2008 Report Share Posted January 29, 2008 Isn't that interesting. He told me they are organic pigs so that they don't have hormones in their feed, but when I asked about thyroid he said it could have thyroid hormones but never gave amounts. Hmm. Unless he misunderstood me because there were other people there and he was kind of rushed. That is how I interpreted not processed with hormones but you are correct that it does say he removes the hormones. Then if they don't contain cortisol that explains why I needed to add it but I wonder what they did do to help that first year? I am going to write to him. I am really curious now. Cheri -----Original Message----- It states HORMONE FREE so the hormones have either been removed or killed in the processing. They cannto wtate that unless it is true. -- .
