Re: Copper, cortisol, bile etc.

Yeah, but what if Bryan Walsh's idea that the adrenals are just an end organ and do their job based on the rest of the axis is true?

My adrenals have been probably high cortisol for 5 years now, what with my stupid experiments. My symptoms really kicked in one year ago with the collagen loss, but my adrenals certainly do not tire after that.

My adrenals are not showing signs of any kind of let up - they are relentless mad men every single day.

Like you, I've been hitting the B5 the last few days along with other stuff like adaptogens and with the B5 and B6 along with my brewer's yeast, I've felt hyper and have the sensation that my body is needing more carbs and losing more collagen.

What if I'm just further feeding my mad man adrenals Coenzyme A and causing more damage through even more elevated cortisol?

What if the soil organism infection and copper damage is keeping my cortisol ramped up to the max and I'm merely feeding the process by facilitating more Coenzyme A etc.

It could be a dangerous game for me, feeding the adrenal pathway beyond just food.

What if instead of tired adrenals (if there is such a concept), I have madman psychopathic adrenals.

I mean, do you ever hear of heart, lung, brain, kidney, stomach, colon etc. fatigue? This idea of fatigue almost seems like a misnomer...

If the adrenals are merely a hormone factory, what is keeping the orders going into the factory? Is it just upregulated, damaged cortisol receptors both downstream and upstream (in the cortisol feedback loop).

So, if the cortisol recepters in the body are upregulated due to damage or wear and tear, feeding the adrenals may further cause problems of upregulation and the vicious cycle escalates.

I just don't want my collagen destruction to escalate out of some stupid practice of further feeding the madness.

I can't really afford adrenal stress index tests on days where I'm feeding my adrenals and not.

Maybe I should be taking anti-cortisol nutrients instead of feeding CoA? Tweet
