I currently use " Nutricology, adrenal cortex, organic glandular "

adrenal cortex tissue (bovine) 250mg, 100 capsules. I get it from

iherb.com

To start with I used the Thorne Research brand because I had to start

at a low dose and build up the dose. 50mg ACE in the Thorne caps.

Here are some posts I made about taking ACE dosage. (two at the top

and then another closer to the bottom of the page, written by me)

You are thinking if HC (Hydrocortisone) which is frequently dished

out by ignorant doctors at too high a dose and this causes the

frequently discussed " crashes " , and the weaning off/dependency

problems. If Adrenal supports are in place before thyroid supports

problems should be minimised. Most normal Doc's don't consider

adrenals to be a problem and don't treat them. If they did a little

research they could discover numerous books, articles about adrenal

problems and how to solve them. It is very well researched.

Don't forget there are many other supplements that need considering

too to support the adrenals: Vit C, Vit E, pantothenic acid, niacin,

Vit B12, B complex, magnesium, calcium, zinc, manganese, selenium,

molybdenum, chromium, iodine, liquorice, ashwagandha, ginseng,

ginger, and the list goes on…..taken from s book " Adrenal

Fatigue The 21st century stress syndrome " page 193 onwards. High salt

intake also makes a big difference and is very good for adrenals.

In fact, looking at that list, I take them all. Notice anything

familiar with that list of supps? If you cross check them with Cutler

in AI you will find he recommends them all too.

(obviously each should be introduced one at a time, starting low dose

and gradually increasing the dose)

Take care
