ADR Formula ®
What Is ADR Formula ®?
ADR Formula® combines whole adrenal and adrenal cortex
with a combination of herbs and nutrients that
nutritionally support the adrenal glands. Naturally
occurring adrenal hormones in these extracts
(epinephrine, norepinephrine, corticosteroids) can help
promote healthy adrenal function. Both Eleutherococcus
senticosus and Panax ginseng have adaptogenic
properties to help balance physiological functions in the
body, including adrenal gland function. Licorice extract
helps to maintain healthy cortisol metabolism while
calcium pantothenate promotes healthy adrenal gland
activity.*
Uses For ADR Formula®
Adrenal Gland Support:
This formulation of adrenal
extracts and botanical and nutritional cofactors
nutritionally supports the proper functioning of the
adrenal glands. This combination contains ingredients
that provide complementary support for reducing fatigue,
moderating stress, and enhancing resistance.*
The Source of ADR Formula®
ADR Formula® contains:
whole adrenal and adrenal cortex
derived from pasture-fed, pesticide-free bovine herds.

Eleutherococcus senticosus
extract (root) (standardized to contain 0.8% eleutheroside
E & B);
licorice extract (root) (standardized to contain
12% glycyrrhizic acid);
