Hi Jessi, In addition to the information you've already gotten from Sherry and Nancy, I would like to add one more thing. Since you first joined back in June 2003, we have a new and improved website

Hi lj Yes PPID could definitely be a factor. Adaptogens can help even when you don't have the veil. The good news is, you know right away if it is what they needed. Besides APF, you can try jherb or

I found this study extremely interesting, but it doesn't match "seasonal rise" as I understand it. Blood samples from March, June, September and December were compared for a Cushings group and a

Hi, I don't mean to take over your question. I am using J-Herb and AlCaR for about 2 weeks. Could someone advise what is the difference between Mov-Ease, and PhytoQuench, and J-Herb? Do they
