Before I get into my Dr. Berg’s Adrenal & Cortisol Support review, I have to say that I’m not a huge fan of nutritional supplements at all. I have always – since a young age – steered clear of pills to get my nutrition and focused on getting it through my actual nutrition: the food I put in my body.
So, while I never say never, this Dr. Berg’s Adrenal & Cortisol Support Review may be the only time I recommend supplements.
A little background: when I first got interested in the Keto lifestyle and Ketosis – I have said this a lot – I poured myself into the science and research behind it. When I do anything, I first have to be completely informed and a diet that touted eating bacon all day seemed questionable, but I was intrigued. So I spent literally days reading, watching YouTube videos and reading medical journals to REALLY understand it. One of the main people who got me 100% invested in Ketosis is Dr. Eric Berg. His videos are thorough, break down why our bodies fail us and how a Ketogenic lifestyle can get us back on track. In the Keto world, he’s a legend. And he does have a line of supplements and products – which normally would turn me off but this guy is so smart and comes across as genuinely passionate about health and changing our lives – so I decided to try two of his products, after MUCH research, a try and I love them. I’l post about his Trace Minerals soon and why I believe they are important, but first up are Dr. Berg’s Adrenal & Cortisol Support dietary supplement.
Dr. Berg’s Adrenal & Cortisol Support
As I’ve said, I clearly suffered from Insulin Resistance (as I believe many women my age do) and my adrenals were clearly stressed. While living a Ketogenic lifestyle has helped me tremendously and I do focus on getting the most of what’s in this formula through my food, there are a couple of specific needs I can’t really get from my diet…like Ashwagandha Root or Holy Basil Leaf Root. While the ingredients my seem unnecessary, I gave these a try and I truly have felt a difference. I started them about mid-way through my Keto journey thus far and I’ve seen improvement in my sleeping, overall stress levels and I’ve seen greater improvement as far as weight loss. I hit a plateau after I lost around 25 pounds and while that’s normal, I think adding this along with the Trace Minerals got my weight loss back on track.
