Well i've been on the DMSA for a couple of weeks and its been hell on my adrenals. ALA makes me feel dead and not up to using it.I know i've got to fix my adrenals. I was tested and they have crashed(i also have very low T4/T3 levels) so has anyone used adrenal glandulars in an attempt to get their endocrine system going? Obviously chelating is going to help but has anyone used them?
Love and light
Stuart

T3/T4 are produced by your thyroid, not your adrenals. You will probably have to support both. Cortisol is produced by your adrenals.
I personally have benefitted a lot from taking a thyroid glandular but I don't tolerate adrenal glandulars, which make me feel worse.

thats interesting. I tried armour thyroid and couldnt tolerate it. My cortisol levels are messed up. Low in the morning high at night hence me feeling better in the evening.
How did the glandulars make you feel..anxious?

I tried a raw thyroid glandular By a company called Natural Sources that contained 50mg bovine thyroid. It really helped my body temperature rise (which was too low most of the time) and helped give me more stable energy and feel overall better. It didn't give me any anxiety...which can be a sign of too much thyroid hormone. Maybe you took too high of a dose of Armour? It comes in a very wide range of doses.
Adrenal Glandular made me feel worse, the main symptom being sore tense muscles, which I didn't understand why but tried again a week later and the same thing happened.
Licorice tea can be helpful for some, but I don't think its as effective as Adrenal Cortex extract if you need real adrenal support.
