Pituitary Overactive
Working with an M.D. who wants to know what will calm down an over active pituitary gland. I told him licorice root, but he seems to feel that will further stimulate it. Anyone have any experience dealing with Cushing's Syndrome? -Sandra

I understand that in general alfalfa supports the health of the pituitary. Now, Cushing's Syndrome, isn't this caused more by Adrenal Stress? Some symptoms can be: Thinning hair, muscle waste, high blood pressure, abdominal fat, excess cortisol...the herbs indicated for this are: Nutri-Calm or Stress-J (be careful if tend to have allergies to weeds/grass), or Kava Kava. Best wishes. -Lourdes Martinez |
