Chest tightness is often reported by mercury poisoned people. There

are different possibilities. People with asthma, MS, heart problems

all report chest tightness, and there are probably other possibilities

as well.

If this symptom is serious (you need to be the judge from how you

feel), then the dose of ALA needs to be reduced.

I haven't heard of that, and adrenal fatigue is my biggest symptom

(not saying it isn't related, just that I don't remember hearing that).

I don't think that drinking tea will worsen it no matter what the

cause is. jmo

People with adrenal fatigue are usually advised to avoid coffee, the

quantity of caffeine in tea is much lower. If you think that you are

hypersensitive to caffeine you could use herb teas.

Dear Finkle -I also have chestiness and have had for years. I do

sometimes take an anti histamine but I think the real problem is

mercury. I also have problems after a cup of tea or coffee - its a

pain -

" A question: assuming that my chest tightness symptom is related to

adrenal issues, would drinking tea worsen it? "

Green tea, after using it several times daily for a few days, gave me

angina. Repeating the experiment reproduced this effect. I have to

question if this was due to adrenal fatigue, because 1)for people as

caffeine sensitive as myself, chronic exposure to even small doses

exacerbate adrenal fatigue, and 2)the increase in synaptic

catecholamines, adenosine antagonism, etc. (an alternative

explanation) are partially compensated for by the presence of

theanine. Additionally, I had just begun a short course of

alprazolam which antagonizes caffeine's stimulatory effects.

Could you have a fast phase one liver? I can't do caffeine of any type

in any way and I have fast phase 1 liver.

Chest tightness could also be reflux or indigestion.

A few thoughts. Good luck

I've, unfortunately, had plenty experience with reflux and indigestion,

though what I experienced was discernably different. Has niacinamide

proven helpful for your fast phase 1? How much have you gone up to in

a 24hr period?

Thanks for your thoughtfulness,
