Both these doctors are knowledgeable in the condition, but they do approach it differently. My understanding from taking patients that have previously dealt with them is that Dr Lam is very adverse to the use of hydro-cortisone, adrenal extracts and herbs, whereas Dr Wilson is a staunch advocate of using extracts. In any case, this only comes from the limited information I get from dealing with former patients of theirs and reading some of their articles - no doubt this does not provide a full picture of their treatment protocol, as would just a sample of my own articles. I would s ...

The two posters before me make a very good point. When you feel awful, it is normally because your body feels awful - assuming that every bad reaction is a ’detox’ is a major mistake and harms the recovery from adrenal fatigue... eating rotten chicken causes diarrhoea, but this is not a ’detox’! Despite what many juicing extremists might tell you, consumption of veg/fruit sugar without any fibre/fat/protein to slow down it’s release will destabilize most people’s blood sugar levels, especially so in adrenal fatigue.

Reactive hypoglycaemia often occurs with adrenal fatigue, as a direct result of adrenal dysfunction. One of the adrenal gland’s jobs is to release adrenaline/cortisol whenever blood sugar levels fall, but when they stop working properly, this does not happen. I would suggest getting an adrenal stress index test. Also I have more recommendations in my article on adrenal fatigue here. Regards, Marek - Basingstoke Nutritionist / Personal Trainer   [End]

What you have decribed to me sounds a lot like adrenal fatigue. I have seen a lot of clients in your person, most of which have already been tested for thyroid and hypoglycemia. However, adrenal function is at the very core of your being and adnreal fatigue is more common than most people think. I would recommend getting an Adrenal Stress Index (from Genova Diagnostics or similar) - it will provide you with a lot of information.

Looks like a very well put-together formula to me. There are a number of adaptogenic herbs included so it would be interesting to see what the response you get from taking it (this adaptogenic herbs like eleuthero are effective in some people but not in others). I’d definitely like to here what you response you have. Regards, Marek Personal Trainer / Nutritionist Basingstoke   [End]

This sounds very much like Stage One Adrenal Fatigue. Normally this is only considered once thyroid issues are ruled out, even though it is many times more common. This is my article on adrenal fatigue - does that describe you? Regards, Marek - Blueprint Fitness   [End]
