Adrenal Cortex Natural Glandular
Allergy Research Group
Overview
The effectiveness of Adrenal Cortex Natural Glandular is poorly supported by scientific research. While it contains adrenal cortex tissue which theoretically provides hormone precursors, there is no high-quality clinical evidence (like RCTs or meta-analyses) to demonstrate its efficacy in humans for improving adrenal function, reducing stress, or alleviating fatigue. The closest related evidence, on DHEA supplementation for adrenal insufficiency, shows only minimal and clinically trivial benefits.
The Good
Sourced from bovine free of Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE).
Hypoallergenic formulation, reducing common allergen risks.
Capsule format with common excipients is generally well-tolerated.
The Bad
Lack of high-quality scientific evidence to support efficacy for adrenal support.
The mechanism of action and bioavailability of intact steroid precursors from the glandular extract is not well-understood.
Potential for gastrointestinal distress as noted on the label.
