Re: Currently Experiencing a VERY Rapid Recovery (Regimen Included)
Of course I have time to respond! =)
Concerning the hypogylcemia: Yes, at times I find it very hard to eat because I've always eaten very little... but I will do anything to avoid feeling bad, so I go ahead. I don't have an exact list, sorry... but I will tell you that all I *currently* eat is fresh meat (I'm sensitive to the packaged meat that is already cooked), vegetables, and eggs. That's about it. It really sucks, obviously... but if that's the only way to get better and live a normal, happy life, then so be it. Besides, after your Adrenal Fatigue goes away, you don't have to worry so much about what you eat. I will of course be more cautious and eat healthier than before, but I sure as hell will be partying alot and eating Italian food weekly. Ha!
Concerning the supplements: Yes, I know what you mean about the Korean Ginseng giving you a wired feeling.. but sadly, I'd prefer to feel wired than tired. So I use it anyway. But definately Rhodiola and Ashwagandha are the best, especially Rhodiola. I read on a website that I can no longer find that many people cured their Adrenal Fatigue within weeks by using Rhodiola & high doses of Vitamin C, so I bought some myself and I'm pretty sure they were right. The only reason I take Ashwagandha really is because it has a sedative effect, which is why I take it at night, so I can fall asleep while still helping my adrenal glands out. I feel amazing lately, although I still have bad times sometimes. Licorice is very important in my opinion as well... it helps level out your cortisol levels. Taking licorice is basically like providing yourself with artificial cortisol that HEALS your adrenal glands unlike Cortef or whatever that prescription stuff is. So the two supplements I would recommend most would be Rhodiola & Licorice. =)
I hope I answered your questions thoroughly! If you have anymore, just post them here! or if you want to talk to me personally, e-mail me at crystallinehoney@hotmail.com
Good luck =)
