Andy says here that " adrenal cortex " is the same as " adrenal CORTEX

glandular " .

The word " glandular " here is a bit misused by the Nutricology company to

mean " naturally extracted from the gland " as opposed to synthetic.

As well, when talking about Nutricology products: Adrenal Cortex

Glandular is NOT the same as Adrenal Natural Glandular, which includes

the adrenal medulla as well (whole adrenal).

All this being said, Andy has not pronounced one way or the other as to

whether taking the whole Adrenal gland extract is acceptable. He has

recommended ACE in the past.

Their whole glandular product is still available.

75-capsules

Their discontinuation of their extract product is what prompted my question. My

next order will definitely be for the whole gland.

Nutricology Adrenal Glandular several months ago. Since I couldn't return the

product, I tried it.

calming effect on them both and they are less susceptible to melt downs. I don't

know why the whole is better for my kids than the ACE.
