Suri wrote: The pituitary typically contains other hormones as well. One example is ACTH which will in turn stimulate the adrenal glands to produce cortisol and other corticosteroids. While this might be good if you're suffering from adrenal fatigue, it might be bad if you already have stress hormone levels that are quite high. And again we don't know in what quantities and ratios these hormones occur.

I know this post was written a while ago but I wanted to get some clarification, if anyone knows the answer. I already know that the amount of pituitary substance in BB is not given. I cannot find it anywhere on this forum or on the BB website. I have emailed the company but they have yet to email me back.
I am basically sold on BB except for the fact that it contains pituitary glandular. This makes me nervous because I recently had my hormones tested and found out I have high levels of stress hormones. Not cortisol ironically but other glucocorticoids. This didn't come as a shock to me because I am a very high strung person with a lot of adrenaline rushing through my veins. I have always been this way. I already have heart palpitations from stress. Taking magnesium has been a huge help, but I don't want to put something into my body that is going to give me those symptoms again or make them worse.:s
I guess my question is in your post were you referring to taking pituitary glandular separately like in addition to generic BO or any pituitary substance in general?
Thank you for any answers or advice.
