Re: Woohoo! 2 Things that have really helped me with adrenal fatigue.

I have a very limited, rather strange diet - by American standards anyway.

In the morning first thing I have a glass of milk with a raw egg & cinammon for protein. I add some primrose oil for fat and eat a purne for carbohydrates.

Then I have dog food. Yep. Not kidding. Well, I went searching on the net for organic freeze dried liver as liver is great for those who have any liver problems & I did have to expell 2000 Gallstones over several months. The only place they sold organic freeze dried liver was where they have dog treats. I found something called Bellyrubs. Ok it's got a dog on the bag. Do I care? lol.

From my research real butter is great for thyroid & adrenals so I have the liver with 2 tbsp butter & Seasalt . Heck, just about anything tastes good with butter & salt. Those dog treats aren't bad at all, tho, I don't think. Kinda melt in your mouth - & I don't like liver, never did.

Then I eat an organic apple, maybe 1/2 orange, tons of supplements including Norweigian cod liver oil & liquiKelp - including those Dr. Lam recommends - some acidophilus yogurt, then meat, beans, veggies, some string cheese & raspberrires & blueberries. I might add some olive oil to the bean & sardine dish I make in a crock pot.

I take enzymes, too, with every meal, even a snack.

It seems to me that one glass of coconut water every day is also a boost to my energy. You can find it on Vitacost (where I buy most everything personally) if you are curious & want to try it.

I have already done big time parasite & gall bladder cleanses, which were very, what they call "productive." They did not do that much for increasing my actual productivity level, though (it was like classic CFS) due to the adrenal issues being unresolved.

I have no good things to say about soy. It can definitely mess with your hormones. When I was going thru meonpause I took soy. It brought back my periods! I worry about guys using that stuff & there is a ton of literature out there suggesting it ain't the healthy food people think it is. It is a menace to the thyroid too.

I also do 2 oil pulls a day but really after all these things, what helped me turn around was, again, spacing out the meds more & taking liponano C.

Everything but the (low fat) string cheese is organic. For some reason I crave that, maybe because of the thyroid meds which cause an increased need for calcium - & I can't find organic string cheese.

Remember, you asked! ;-)
