Seriphos - 100 Capsules

I have been sick for years and years, and finally decided I was done with that. I switched to amino acids, and a serious, all-out program to help me get rid of the adrenal fatigue that was ruining my life. It is slow going, but every day I feel better.I have a bunch of products that I love and use, including Dr Lam's breathing exercises, rosea rhodiola (spelling?), GABA, licorice and ashwaganda tea, l-tryptophan, l-theanine, vitamin c, 5000 vitamin D, methyl B12, and do-phenylalanine for occasional pain. oh, and I am also on the GAPS diet.With all this I was really feeling almost like my old self, but just couldn't quite get past that point of really feeling good. So I added this Seriphos a couple weeks ago. At first I didn't know when to take it, but then I got it figured out, and it has put me over the top. I now sleep, and wake up feeling pretty good. But, I also don't feel all wound up and stressed out before bed, and I can handle almost anything now without completely crashing. I used to be down more days than up, and now I only have one or 2 down days a month, and have energy, and stamina.So, this is how I use the Seriphos: I take one around dinner time, just before I eat. I then take 2 at bedtime. They don't really make me sleepy, they just make me not want o get up and fix everything wrong with my life right at bedtime, or in the middle of the night, of I wake up. Instead, I now actually handle things during the day.If anyone would like more specific info about all I am doing, feel free to contact me. I did all this work it should help others. Oh, and don't fall for any of those things that offer you the world for just 39.99, or whatever price. All this info out there is free, or reasonable. The only things I paid for we're the actual supplements and the Dr. Lam breathing exercises, which have retrained me how to breathe, and weren't too much.14 May, 2014Well, I have been asked to write about what has happened to me since I last wrote this. My health has taken off. It was pretty slow at first, but now I have energy, and I am getting out there in the world, and doing things. I am actually starting a business now, walking and caring for dogs, which I never could have done without this and all the products I wrote about. The things I found most helpful were the adrenal yoga, and all the advice on Dr. Lam's web site, this product, which I am still taking, and a wonderful product that I can only find at my local health food store, called adrenal balance.I am also taking a whole lot of amino acids. I am also drinking salt, yes salt, several times a day. I put in in lemonade, so I don't taste it. My body adrenals love it! I am also really pushing the animal fats and protein. I have a shake each morning that is probably 1000 calories, and I have energy throughout the day. I eat bacon and eggs. I basically do all those things that we have been warned about by the main stream medical community, but which are literally saving my life.If anyone wants specific information on all the things I have taken and have done, just respond to this. I do get the messages, and now that I am feeling better, I can actually answer them!Thank youAs of March 2015: I am off and running, I have started my own dog walking business and it is thriving.

I have been taking Enerphos and Seriphos for 4-5 years for adrenal fatigue, which I have been battling with for about 15 years. I have taken many different supplements with very little success for this MOTN (Middle of the Night) insomnia problem. These two are the only things that I have found to keep me asleep through the night (aside from cancer-causing sleeping pills). I have taken as many as 18 at night and I am now regularly taking 8. I adjust my dosage to try and take just enough to keep me asleep through the night. I also take 2, 4 or 6 if I wake in the MOTN (I tend to take more the earlier I wake). My insomnia intensity sways back and forth over long enough periods that allows me enough time to make adjustments to my dosage. I manage it by adding 2 pills at a time when it gets worse until I get to where I can sleep without waking in the middle of the night. And, after I am sleeping comfortably for about a week at that dosage, I begin backing off the pills 2 at a time and monitor if I continue to sleep without waking. I have gone through periods not long ago of not taking any, and I do that until I start waking up in the MOTN again. Then, I start taking 2 and increase it (2 at a time) until I can sleep through the night regularly. That strategy seems to be working for me pretty well right now, but it took me a long time to develop and improve that strategy as well as I have it down now. And, it is still very far from perfect. It seems like a life-long struggle for me. I have not learned enough yet to be able to manage my adrenal fatigue ongoing. I am finding the Adrenal Reset diet seems to have more of an impact than any pills for resolving this problem long-term (I just haven't mastered it yet). I have never been a breakfast person, and I find it very difficult to force food down in the morning. I believe that is the real cause of my problems. Anyway, my naturopath first recommended Seriphos and told me they are very safe so I can take as many as I need. When I reported to him how many I was taking, he told me to try Enerphos and with that I should be able to get away with taking half as many. However, I do not notice any difference in the effectiveness of these two products.
