Here is something from a list I have, developed by some medical and nutritional professionals. It is suggested nutritional support (not cure) for many conditions, and this is the list for Fibromyalgia.
These are be some things that can be brought up discussion with others on any forums you are on, or with Ptrs or whoever.
List first, then explanation:
Fibromyalgia - CN plus Total Control, Herbal Concentrate,
Herbalifeline, Dong Quai, (Nutri 9 & Brazilian Tea may also Help –
Eliminate Aspartame from your diet.)
The above items are Herbalife products, but I will detail them a bit below so you can find something from another source.
CN = Cellular Nutrition - one protein shake a day; soy isolate powder(flavoured) plus whey isolate powder to make it about 30g protein.
Multivitamin with some minerals that you take 3 times a day (body runs 24-7)
2. Total Control - used as a snack control and metabolism booster - contains caffeine-type ingredients(again, non-crash)
3. Herbal Concentrate - called "tea" it contains a green-tea type caffeine that doesn't do the caffeine 'crash
4. Herbalifeline - Deep sea (sardine) fish oil in gel caps - Omega 3. 2 caps 3 x day to start.
5. Dong Quai - A good version of this Chinese herb in tablet form; the "woman's" supplement.
6. Nutri - 9 - Calcium tab with 9 other minerals(make magnesium or Vit D one of them for better absorption)
7. Brazilian Tea - like #3, but contains guarana, a stimulant herb from South America.
8. This one is just from me - is your hemoglobin/iron level good? A pharmacist showed me several types of iron....Ferrous Fumarate is the best absorbed type, he said. Taken with a Vit C tablet (500mg or so) helps even more.
Just for information...check it out with doctor, others, etc.
I HOPE you all feel better soon! HUGS!
