Hi Everyone,
Can anyone recommend any herbs / supplements that help adrenal fatigue but don't lower or mess with blood glucose/insulin?
In the past when I didn't know that I was hypoglycemic I tried many herbs/supplements to combat adrenal fatigue and although those herbs got rid of the fatigue within a few hours or days of use (depending on the herbs/supplement) I would get violent headaches and agitation and insomnia that now I know it's because they would lower blood sugar. Furthermore, I also have high Lactic acid and Uric acid, so I am hoping to find something that does not contribute to those either.
The good news is ever since I started using cornstarch my blood sugar is stabilizing and I have less headaches and I am able to tolerate a little bit of supplements.
So I would really appreciate it if anyone can recommend a natural herb/supplement for combating adrenal fatigue that does not mess with insulin or glucose, does that even exist?
Thanks so much,
Here are some of the supplements that I remember I tried in the last 15 years that worked for adrenal fatigue but the side effects that I mentioned above were so sever I had to stop them:
Siberian Ginseng, Ginko Biloba , St. John's worth, ALA, Taurine, Glutathione, NAC, Rodiola, Ashwaghanda, Licoric, phosphatidylserine, Panax Ginseng, Schisandra berry, Chromium, Iinositol, just to name a few!
