Possible adrenal stress and supplementation

[Guest guest]

I am using the body temperature test to see if I have adrenal issues.

If I do (and so far the temps indicate I do have adrenal problems) can

I just go ahead and start taking Adrenal Cortex Extract? Any other

supplements like Pregnenolone or Ginseng according to Andy's list in

the book? Or do I need to follow up with some other blood tests etc.?

My temp reading for 24 hours from one afternoon to the next afternoon,

has been: 97.7, 97.3, 97.52, 98.6, 97.7.

This is what I found from one of the web sites - sorry don't know from

where, just jotted it down:

1) Temp fluctuating - adrenal issues

2) Temp fluctuating but overall low - adrenal and thyroid issues

3) Temp averaging 98.6 - adrenal issues

4) Temp steady but low - more thyroids needed, adrenals ok

BTW, not chelating yet, though amalgams are out (not sure if any

traces left in mouth).

Thanks

You need your DAILY AVERAGE to know what is going on.

Your temperature does fluctuate during a day, that is normal. But it the

AVERAGE should not fluctuate day to day.

If it does that indicates adrenal problems.

Take 3 temperatures a day - 3, 6 and 9 hours after waking - add them

together and get an average.

> 3) Temp averaging 98.6 - adrenal issues

This is incorrect. If they averafe 98.6 then all is well. That is perfect.

It is a clever idea to get your temperatures stabile and 98.6 before

removing amalgams and chelating.

I wish I had. It would have saved my body a lot of stress.

Hi

I think you should take an average of temps each day, rather than one

temp each day.

You have to take them 3 times first after 3 hours after waking, then

after another 3 hours, then after another 3 hours and average the

three readings

This is from Dr Rinds website www.drrind.com where you would of founf

the information.

Thermal graph for adrenal fatigue and correction Diagram Key and

Explanation:

Temperatures are measured orally. Make sure the thermometer is placed

deep under the tongue. Take three temperatures approximately three

hours apart, starting approximately three hours after waking up. For

example, if one wakes up at 6 AM, measure temperatures around 9AM, 12

Noon, and 3 PM. Try to avoid taking temperatures after activity or

eating and drinking for at least 20 minutes. Even climbing a flight of

stairs can raise one's temperature for short period of time. Taking

one's temperature several times in a row will yield temperatures that

rise each time. This is usually due to the muscular activity of the

tongue and mouth. So, take only one reading. I have found digital oral

thermometers most appropriate for monitoring metabolism. There are

many good models available. I have found the Lumiscope Digital

Thermometer to be one of the most accurate for the price and use these

with my patients. I do not recommend mercury thermometers because:

they expose you and the environment to toxic mercury when they break;

they are too slow; and, the accuracy depends on leaving them in your

mouth the same length of time each time you measure. I do not

recommend axillary temperatures because the axillae are relatively

cooler and more variable in people with stressed adrenals. Ear

thermometers are the least accurate of all.

Thanks for the corrections. I wish I had also been cleverer I have

had all my amalgams out (not sure if any trace left, especially under

a permanent bridge of metal free zirconium and porcelain), I'm pretty

worried about this one for it is a major reason I have put chelation

on hold, till I find a dentist who can check this out for me. Wonder

what dentists do - yank out the permanent bridge, check under it and

then glue it all back together again?? And then does one end up paying

big bucks again? Sigh!
