Dear Dr lopez..

Today i have just got my Neuroadrenal profile back from neuroscience...

My results are showing im very low in serotonin,norepinephrine and epinprine.. not sure what the last two means..aLSO MY CORTISOL IS LOW

epineprine: 6.6 low optimal range-8-11
norephineprime: 25.3 low optimal range-35-45
serotonin:48.2 very low optimal range-125-175

adrenal cortisol: morning- 4.1
midday - 2.3
evening- 1.9
night - 0.8

my DHEA was in the optimal range of 301.2
optimal range-250-450


The main symptoms im suffering from which is greatly effecting my life is, anxiety,shyness,nervousness, i had to leave my job because of this has i have trouble being around people..

could my results be causing these problems,
I did your test,and my digestion and blood sugar seems to be fine..I believe the main cause could be a longterm relationship break up about a year ago...

Do you think your product could help me, is there anything else that i should add to help raise my cortisol?

Neuroscience did recommend me take two of there products
Called Adrecor

Rhodiola rosea extract (standardized to 16% rosavins), in low concentrations, stimulates norepinephrine
and epinephrine release
· N-acetyltyrosine enhances norepinephrine production
· L-methionine supports methylation pathways, which facilitate the conversion of norepinephrine to
epinephrine
· Vitamins B and C support adrenal gland function including cortisol production

And Endoplus-

Ingredients_

5-HTP crosses the blood-brain barrier and is a direct precursor to serotonin
· L-theanine is a glutamate receptor antagonist

Not sure what you think of the ingredients in these products..

your products seems more superior,and also cheaper..
So i may try yours if you think it would be better,..

With there product they want me to balance my neurotransmitters first before starting there adrenal product..

Phase 1: Weeks 1-2
Phase 1 is the first step in balancing the Neuro-Endocrine-Immune (NEI) Connection© and may not target all
neurotransmitters. Products recommended in Phase 1 are generally calming and commonly provide support for
the serotonergic and GABAergic systems. The addition of catecholamine support too early may result in overstimulation
and therefore is only suggested during Phase 1 when symptoms of fatigue are present. During phase
1, improvements in anxiousness, mood, over-stimulation, behavior, and sleep may be observed. Extending Phase 1
may be necessary if the individual is still experiencing over-stimulation.
• Phase 2: Week 3 on
Phase 2 introduces complete catecholamine support to promote energy, elevate mood, and improve
concentration and focus. Phase 2 generally continues until neurotransmitter levels have been optimized and
symptoms are improved. During this phase, doses may be adjusted, and a retest is recommended to achieve
optimal results. The duration of Phase 2 is variable, with a minimum length of 3 months, and is dependent upon
individual responses. Some individuals may require long-term maintenance dosing, which can be determined
upon retesting.

Thankyou

BEST WISHES CHRIS

Chris,

The one thing I learned years ago is that you can never help someone solely based on their test results...because I have no idea as to what you are doing that could be causing your problem. You said your digestion and blood sugar are fine, but those are only the first two basic questions I would look at to help.

You mentioned shyness and inability to be around other people....how much of that is chemical imbalances and how much is also mental programming or outlook? That being said, I am not sure how to help you. Yes your body, your adrenal glands are in need of support...but remember you have to also quit doing things that make you worse, which so often many of my patients don't realize they are doing things that are working against them.

Adrenal Fuel and Neuro Calm are great products, but you also have to dose them properly and regularly use them,

Dr. Len
