Re: Chemical Sensitivity, there IS help!

 Capsules, as follows;
Nature's Way Ashwagandha, 500 mg. each
Solary Schandra, 580mg. each
Amla by Pure Planet, 54.4 mg vit c/ 2 tablets
Now brand Bee Pollen, 3000 mg/tsp

I've been taking the Ashwagandha and Schizandra for a couple of days and have been feeling very anxious. I started the Amla and bee pollen yesterday. Although I seem to have more energy, I feel tired and unable to focus and concentrate at the same time, along with feeling anxious...not calm at all...also takng about 100 billion probiotics 3 times a day.

I would start with 2 capsules each three times daily at least 20 minutes before meals on the schisandra and ashwagandha.

Pure Planet combines their amla with spirulina, so I am not sure how much amla you would be getting.

The pollen I would go with 1/4 teaspoon 3 times daily with the other herbs.

Anxiety can have a couple of causes. It could your adrenals trying to kick in causing a rise in epinephrine release. If there is not enough acetylcholine to balance it this could cause anxiety. Otherwise, the most common cause is a rise in lactate. Try deep breathing exercises throughout the day to help reduce any lactate build up.
