Does Sepia also have action on Insulin Resistance?
shwet last decade
particularly not.
but its going to re-align your vital forces and thus you would have an indirect benifit in this area from sepia.

Hi Rishimba,
I wanted to find out about what medicines are effective against adrenal fatigue..I was told by my acupuncturist that its quite possible I have that...I read about it and most symptoms match except thta I think I get good sleep 6-7 hrs. but still tired.
Also, I got premature graying of hair starting from age 27 years and has been constantly increasing. Do you suggest any other medication too?
Sepia 200 has been ordered and will arrive in 2-3 days..

sepia will cover all these.
if you feel good after taking sepia 200c, it means that sooner or later, all of your problems will get cured.
