Well I had the adrenal issue (hpa axis dysfunction is really what it is) pre fin for 3 years. It ended up being preg/t3 with testosterone cream to fix it ultimately- only got 6 months out of it before I freaked out about the hair loss and highly elevated DHT (t cream) leading to 15 days of freaking fin.
Lets say I was 20-40% with adrenal fatigue, 70-90% before fin, and -1000% now literally -1000% the adrenal fatigue is that bad.
That being said, I know the ins and out of the problem- body running on adrenaline rather than cortisol doesn't just feel bad it is VERY toxic for the body.
It is just far too often this is the case since fin syndrome began to throw 5k and know the body is going to run on adrenaline for a couple weeks while fasting. Cortisol is needed for a fast. Knowing my body here, I think juice is the wise choice.
I've decided to kick the coffee and possibly do coffee enemas every other day or so to help clean liver during feast. Right now I think my only shot is cleaning and I'd rather it be the water fast (quicker, more efficient), but in my case I really have to believe juice is the wiser choice.
Today is day 1 and I just finished my first quart of juice- (made them all after work last night). I'm considering letting this go for quite some time up to 30 days will see how I feel.
I realize my life is ultimately over if I don't fix this or at least take major steps forward. Choosing the right path for my respective body is the only way to getting there and although fasting seems far preferred for the average PFS folk, I realize I am a bit different.
