Hi. I have had some strength gains from using E-Bol by Thermolife for a couple of months. Seems I respond well to Ecdy, but I understand that many others have mixed results to this substance.

What I am having an issue with seems to be a common "side" that many users have reported. Lethargy, drowsiness, grogginess etc. is the culprit.

I have been searching for what is making me extremely drowsy, mainly in the afternoons. I cut down on my post-workout dosage of Taurine (from 8 to 4 gms), since I understand that Taurine can cause something like this.

I have been supplementing my reduced E-Bol dosage with Ecdysten by Thermolife. I have cut back to 1/3 on the dosage of E-Bol.

Does anyone here have any information regarding E-Bol and it's side of grogginess?

Thanks in advance.

i believe it comes from lowered cortisol.

Thanks. Interesting. Can you think of a way in which to reduce this side? Some folks have resorted to taking stims, but I would rather not. I would like to go back to the full dose of E-Bol if possible.

Is this its primary mechanism of action? Or just a "side effect"?

Well, if in fact that you do have lowered cortisol due to E-Bol, then that is a great thing.

Depends. Would be good if your cortisol levels are high, but not if your cortisol levels are normal or already low. You don't want to eradicate cortisol, you just want to control it.

grogginess is a side effect of the ashwaganda.
