Hi Glenn.
> i noticed a couple of posts re cortisol and as i have over twice the "normal " max i have researched it a bit so some of you may find this interestingThe NIMH is currently preparing to study cortisol, CRH, and all of that good stuff in-house as it pertains to affective illness (personal communication).
> norman rosental head of the nimh
Norman Rosenthal is not the head of the NIMH.
He is: Senior Researcher, Section on Biological Rhythms, National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH).
> norman rosental head of the nimh in his book on st johns wort maintains that it blocks up endorphin receptors , hence perhaps anhedonia
What does Hypericum have to do with cortisol?
> dr dharma singh khalsa in a book focusing on alzheimers says that it inhibits utilisation of blood sugar by the brain(fatigue!?)
What are you trying to say? Are you putting forth a theory of some sort?
> interferes with the function of the brains neurotransmitters
> kills brain cells
> hmmm lovely stuff!!
I see that you have a personal agenda.
> the drug i am awaiting to try and get it down is anticort made by steroidgenesis inhibitors ltd,
What is anticort? Is it a receptor antagonist?
> if anyone knows how to purchase or obtain any please let me know
Have you tried ketoconazole?
