Yes, you're right, it is a chicken or egg thing. I've also tested low with regards to adrenal function, but did it cause neurotransmitter depletion or was it the other way around?
I do know that adrenal insufficiency does cause digestion problems and that potentially can lead to poor...
I had a similar test done which showed I had low dopamine, serotonin, glutathione and over all poor amino acid assimilation. I'm currently taking a 20 amino blend, NAC, theanine, tryptophan and tyrosine. Two things I have noticed most are better sleep and far less depression. You can read more...
