----------I consider it to be more like HC, and supposedly contains 2.5mg of

cortisol per pellet. But the label says " Freeze Dried Adrenal Cortex " and some

other stuff. So it probably does contain ACE, but it says only 5mg per pellet,

so would still be a very small amount. And most of us who use ACE use much

larger doses, so use other brands/products that are pure ACE.

Hi Jackie-

How much ACE do people usually take? I have Allergy Research ACE and the

label says one cap per day. Is that usually enough?

Thanks,

Dana

thanks, Jackie. I just bought a new bottle so I'll use it up before

I switch. I guess that's ok - to switch from Isocort to ACE? Plus

I'm taking pregnenolone which is supporting something (adrenals?).

----------You could certainly try switching to ACE and see what you think.

And I don't see why you couldn't take both, if Isocort does *something* for you.

I take both HC and ACE, so I don't see why you couldn't take Isocort and ACE at

the same time. But if the ACE alone works, then just use that. I actually keep

a bottle of Isocort on hand as an emergency backup, in case I run out of HC for

some reason (like I don't reorder soon enough!).

And it's ok to take other adrenal support too. I take HC, ACE, DHEA, and

pregnenolone everyday. My adrenals need alot of help --------Jackie
