[QUOTE="Anonymon, post: 225482, member: 42608"] Tried out that Adrenal supplement for 4 days. My doc also apparently sells it. Did work amazingly well compared to other things I’ve tried, including hydrocortisone, and is probably the best I have ever tried by a wide margin. Just took the normal dose of two caps in the morning. The fact that I react very differently to the whole glandular than to just the cortex and hydrocortisone does suggest that it’s probably not the cortisol in there, if any, that’s helping. It’s more likely some of the other things in there like dopamine and norepinephrine and epinephrine and such. Glycogen retention shot way up and was only limited by the T3 I’m taking, I could sweat progressively well as time went on, and various other things that happen to me when things are going better for me. Not being able to sweat really sucks. Retaining water like a mofo, which in my case is more normal to who I am. I also have a theory that adrenal cortex extracts contain something that converts cortisone to cortisol, which is why people adapt to them so quickly, whereas I never really adapt to things like hydrocortisone at lower doses (5mg). In line with that theory, ordered some Selegiline to try in micro dose since it’s an MAO-B inhibitor that’d help with some of that. It’s possible that people like me that have documented low cortisol have low cortisol mechanistically from other things, which is why many have trouble when trying to dose with hydrocortisone, whereas getting it through other means like cortisone acetate and pregnenolone help more because the ‘release’ of cortisol and activation of it probably triggers the body to release and do other things alongside of it to support it. If I just take hydrocortisone I feel very dopamine depleted and generally it’s not as helpful as other things and is mostly negative sides I don’t like. [/QUOTE]
