"Fibromyalgia affects approximately 10,000,000 people in the
United States and Canada. There are some estimates that would place that
number even higher. The incidence of fibromyalgia is greater the farther
North you go. The average age at onset is between 35 and 55 years old,
but fibromyalgia can affect any age. Approximately 90% of those affected
are female. The average time between the onset of symptoms
and
the establishment of a diagnosis is 5 years." Rob
Robertson, M.D.
Fibromyalgia is a painful disorder for which mainstream medicine has
no solution other than heavy, and often ineffective, use of painkillers,
along with lifestyle changes. It affects 20 million Americans, with high
rates of occurrence in women. Related to rheumatoid arthritis, it too is
an autoimmune disorder involving muscular pain, fatigue, insomnia, headaches,
depression, chest pain, low-grade fever, swollen lymph nodes, insomnia,
frequent abdominal pain, irritable bowel syndrome, and depression, may
accompany the muscle pain. Now you don't have to "Just learn to live with
it"
Dr. Rob Robertson and Dr. William Hennen present: The
Fibromyalgia Recovery Program
Dr. Rob Robertson has produced a video to help educate all of us about
the challenges associated with Fibromyalgia (FM), and what you can do for
yourself to begin your road to recovery. If you have been diagnosed
with FM, you know very well the variety of symptoms that that can challenge
you every day.
Perhaps
you have been told by a well-meaning but uniformed doctor that you will
"just have to learn to live with it." Well guess what... you
do have options. The good news is, your symptoms can be diminished
or reduced by using natural, nutritional products that address these symptoms.
Dr. William Hennen M.D. has created two natural products that are FM
specific. They are FibroAMJ, a day-time formula, and a night-time
formula for those of you who suffer from unrefreshing sleep. Dr.
Hennen also brings us transfer
factors, the ultimate immune boosting natural product.
Rita is a 52-year-old with a history of chronic bone and muscle pain
that affected her on a daily, literally moment-to-moment basis. She was
given multiple diagnoses, until finally the diagnosis of Fibromyalgia was
made in mid 1999. She visited us in July of 1999 and we shared the Fibro
regimen of (transfer factors, Fibro Day and
Night, and EFA's) with her. She tried it for a month, with "astounding"
results within the first four weeks of supplementation. Now a full 6 months
into supplementation, she rarely requires any pain medication (an occasional
Advil or aspirin) and now lives a full life with little, if any discomfort.
Most importantly, her spirit has returned to the Rita we once knew. And
all we did was share what we have learned from 4LR! Sharing is a powerful
thing! This is our second success story with people with Fibromyalgia,
the first being a 63-year-old grandmother of 5, who now "can hug her grandchildren
the way a grandmother should be able to." She too has a "full life" with
an estimated 80% reduction in pain and nearly full function, with much
improved sleeping at night.
Duane
Townsend M.D. - "I have seen transfer factors
knock out colds, sore throats, etc., but it also has helped
Fibromyalgia,
neurological problems, chronic yeast infections. All of our cancer
patients are using transfer factors."
"I was actually confined to a wheel-chair. The pain was so excruciating
that I feared I'd never walk normally again. I thought that after
struggling with Fibromyalgia for years, it had finally won.
Then I was introduced to the Fibromyalgia Recovery Program.
I now lead a totally normal life and am determined to tell everyone I can
reach that, despite what I'd been told, "You don't have to learn
to live with it." - Linda Baker
"I've had chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia since August 1991.
I've also had shingles five times in that period. This winter I had shingles
very bad from the end of September until the end of February and still
have them somewhat. I'm able to get up and get dressed at this time. I
started on Transfer Factor and the FibroAMJ system about six weeks ago,
and I am now sleeping through the night with no sluggishness the next day.
I have energy, and every morning I am able to get up at 7:30. My husband
will verify that it has been many years since I've done that. I've been
packing to move for 12 days straight and I have energy every single day.
I was not able to cook a meal and do the dishes in the same evening; I
would cook a meal and do the dishes the next day, or possibly even the
next, because I could not stand on my feet. So I'm extremely excited about
transfer
factors and I want to tell everybody that has fibromyalgia to please
take this and get yourself well. " B.F. Oregon

Immunity: The body's defense department
Most modern maladies are caused by prolonged exposure to a combination
of negative lifestyles and toxic environmental factors, including junk
food and malnutrition, pesticides, antibiotics, microwaves, chemical pollution
of food, water and air, lack of exercise and chronic stress. (more
info)
These factors are further aggravated by the failure of modern medicine
to recognize them as agents of dis-"ease" and death and the consequent
failure to take preventative measures against them. By rebuilding immunity,
health is naturally restored and disease disappears. If health and immunity
are thereafter conscientiously maintained, the individual is no longer
vulnerable to disease.
The sort of health care required to restore immunity and prevent disease
begins at home, not in the clinic, by eliminating factors which impair
immunity and cultivating habits which boost it. Though it requires individual
effort, self-discipline and personal responsibility, preventative health
care is always a good investment, in time as well as money, because once
you fall ill, it takes a lot more time and costs a lot more money to acquire
vibrant health again. Furthermore, every time you lose your health, the
road to recovery gets longer and rougher, demanding a growing investment
for diminishing returns. By investing in your immunity now, you insure
your future health and guard your life at minimum cost. more
Chronic
Fatigue Syndrome (CFS), Myalgic Encephalopathy (M.E) and Environmental
Toxins
There is a large proportion of ME/CFS patients who complain of everyday
amounts of volatile chemicals triggering or worsening symptoms, i.e. multiple
chemical sensitivity (MCS). This has led some researchers to look down
this path for answers to the CFS puzzle. One study quotes the rate of severe
chemical sensitivity amongst ME/CFS patients at 20%-47% (13). The same
study provides compelling evidence that the limbic system (the emotional
centre of the brain) of susceptible individuals can become sensitized by
chemical, biological and psychological mechanisms and that subsequent exposure
to stimuli can cause disregulation of multiple body systems including behavioral,
autonomic, endocrine, and immune system functions. Animal models have shown
that sensitization can occur as a result of chronic exposure to everyday
amounts of volatile organic chemicals (VOC's). In addition to these findings
there is also strong evidence of abnormalities of detoxification in ME/CFS.
Glutathione, the body's most powerful antioxidant, is consistently found
to be low (14, 15). Glutathione may become depleted
due to chronic exposure to high levels of toxins. This could potentially
be as a result of exposure to toxins in the air or from chemicals of gut
origin in the presence of gut dysbiosis. Overactivation of the immune system
also depletes glutathione so this may come as a knock on effect from immune
system abnormalities. What is certain is that low glutathione leads to
fatigue and muscle weakness and pain due to its role in energy metabolism.
Low
glutathione also results in oxidative stress, meaning that highly reactive
oxygen molecules are not neutralized and are thus free to roam the body
damaging cells and interfering with potentially any body system. more...

Fibromyalgia and Raw Food Research Study
Donaldson and his staff conducted an
intervention study looking at how the raw foods diet affected people with
fibromyalgia,
a nerve and muscle pain disorder. Over a course of six weeks, 30 people
were put on a program that included two to three glasses of carrot juice,
barley greens, raw fruits and vegetables, flaxseed oil, and some cooked
food at dinner (mostly whole grains). At the end of the trial, two thirds
showed remarkable improvement: two participants overcame their severe depression;
one woman went back to work after being out on disability. "Generally the
raw food diet works because it is a synergy," says Donaldson. "Vitamins,
enzymes, a healthy bowel, balanced emotions, positive outlook -- all of
these components come together in a living way. People overcome arthritis,
allergies, cancer, you name it. I am still amazed by the testimonials that
come back to us from people who have adopted a raw foods diet." Rose Lee
Calabro knows what Donaldson is talking about. Before turning raw she was
an HMO nightmare: she suffered from
high
cholesterol, high blood pressure, allergies, candida,
chronic fatigue, joint pain, depression, mood
swings, gallstones, hair loss, hearing loss, hypoglycemia, hypothyroidism,
difficulty concentrating, chronic sinusitis, insomnia, gout, and early
signs of cancer in breasts and lungs. Although
her transition to a raw foods diet was gradual (first a vegetarian, then
a cooked food vegan), she truly began to notice changes after going raw.

Shelly - "My nightmare
began at the end of 1996. At 25 I was what society would consider healthy.
I ate what I thought was a well balanced diet and I was fit and very active.
I felt good, had a great boyfriend, now husband, and life was good.. How
drastically everything would change. I started to fall ill. Terribly ill.
It began with a migraine that came one day and never left. Accompanying
the migraine was a pain at the base of my skull and severe muscle tightness,
and pain. My muscles in my neck and shoulders became as hard as rocks and
nothing would relax them. Over the next six years I would bounce from various
types of doctors and specialists in the allopathic medical community (conventional
medicine). No doctor could help me and my list of symptoms kept getting
longer. Added to the debilitating migraines and muscle tightness, fatigue
and pain was.. 50lb weight gain, extreme excitability/nervousness, panic
attacks, shortness of breath, great loss of libido, painful intercourse,
fibrocystic breasts, irregular heart beat, chronic sinus infections and
yeast infections, lowered immune system and more. My body was falling apart.

Green
juice and Herbal Tonics Are My Lifeline
Most people who have explored the wondrously wide avenues of self-healing
have heard about wheatgrass. Wheatgrass juice has been proven over many
years to benefit people in numerous ways: cleansing the lymph system,
building the blood, restoring balance in the body, removing
toxic
metals from the cells, nourishing the liver and kidneys and restoring vitality.
One ounce of wheatgrass juice has the vitamin and mineral equivalent of
2.2 pounds of fresh vegetables. It contains most of the vitamins and minerals
needed for human maintenance, including the elusive B12. Many of the benefits
of wheatgrass juice stem from the fact that it is a living food, which
is a complete protein with about 30 enzymes and is approximately 70% crude
chlorophyll.
To
detoxify my blood and to maintain my excellent
health and vitality I drink daily 6 to 8 ounces of freshly pressed mixture
of wheatgrass, parsley,
cilantro,
bitter-melon-vine/leaf,dandelion,
and other green leafy veggies. I mix in one tablespoon of bee
pollen. one ounce of fulvic minerals
, one ounce of marine phytoplankton, 2
ounces of Goji juice (rich
in glyconutrients)
and 1/4 teaspoon of shilajit. I
also drink Dr. Miller's Detox Tea.
I grow my own wheatgrass in flats by my windows (view
instructions).
Wheatgrass played
a major role in my health recovery of severe lifelong illnesses. I use

F. Batmanghelidj, M.D.
- "Every function inside the body is regulated by and depends on water.
Water must be available to carry vital elements, oxygen, hormones, and
chemical messengers to all parts of the body. Without sufficient water
to wet all parts equally, some more remote parts of the body will not receive
the vital elements that water supplies. Water is also needed to carry toxic
waste away from the cells. In fact, there are at least 50 reasons why the
body needs sufficient water on a regular, everyday basis. Without sufficient
water to constantly wet all parts, your body's drought-management system
kicks into action. The histamine-directed chemical messenger systems are
activated to arrange a new, lower quota of water for the drought-stricken
areas. When histamine and its subordinate "drought managers" come across
pain-sensing nerves, they cause pain. This is what I discovered in my research
that I mentioned earlier." more

Why elimination of the symptom
is NOT the same as elimination of the
disease
Physicians and surgeons palliate symptoms instead of removing causes.
"Modern medicine feels, in most cases, that the elimination of the symptom
is the same as elimination of the disease. In allopathic medicine a symptom
is usually thought of as the patient's real disease and the goal is to
hold back, decrease or eliminate this symptom. This is often done without
addressing the underlying cause. If your tooth hurts and we inject a local
anesthetic, the pain goes away but that does not mean the problem is gone!
If we use medications to suppress these symptoms then the vital force tries
to create new symptoms to compensate for the imbalance that is
still
there. If the vital force is strong then the original symptom may return.
Otherwise, it may be unable to express on the same level and create a symptom
that is more interior and could be much worse per Herring's
Law.
One example is a skin rash that is treated with cortisone. The
rash and itching will probably go away quickly. Later the patient begins
to exhibit liver problems that "were caused by the cortisone". The liver
symptoms are actually an expression of this suppressed imbalance on a deeper
more interior level. Many things can be suppressive. Vaccines and allopathic
medications are a major source of suppression where homeopathy is concerned,
but herbs, acupuncture and incorrect homeopathic remedies can also be suppressive."
When there is enough wrong with people to produce discomfort of mind
or body, they seek relief instead of seeking for and removing cause...Physicians
and surgeons palliate symptoms instead of removing causes. "Whenever possible,
suppression of symptoms is avoided, as this may interfere with the healing
process. Tolle Causam (Identify and Treat the Cause). Illness does not
occur without cause and symptoms (nausea, rash, headache) are not the cause.
Symptoms are signals that the body is out of balance. They are an expression
of the body's attempt to heal itself. Causes originate on many levels,
but are more often found in the patient's lifestyle, diet, habits, or emotional
state. When
only
the symptoms are treated, the underlying causes remain and the patient
may develop a more serious, chronic condition. Prevention Is the Best Cure.
Health is a reflection of how we choose to live." Dr. Peter A. Martin,
N.D.
Why "Cures" Sometimes
Fail by Dr. Leo Roy, M.D., N.D.
There are obstacles, barriers and impediments to healing. Failing to
consider obstacles to healing is possibly the most under-considered and
neglected aspect to getting well. Not considering these obstacles sets
us up to have potential cures fail, even those that are the most perfect
and effective treatments, those that are most perfectly programmed to all
our healing needs. Healing isn't always simple, easy, painless or automatic.
Problems arise from many factors of which you are likely not aware. Learn
about The Nature and Types of Obstacles to Healing.
You
may feel worse before you begin to feel better...
Ginger Chalford, Ph.D
- "The body has an inherent desire for
perfect health. We have the ability to earn our way back to that state,
no matter how "normal" or bad our health is now. But in the meantime, the
body must go through an elimination process to achieve good health. The
elimination process is often referred to as the "healing crisis." Once
the healing crisis starts, reactions may be mild or severe. Expect ups
and downs as it takes awhile to get good health back. In a healing crisis,
every body system works together to eliminate waste products and set the
stage for regeneration. Old tissues are replaced with new."
The Road To Better Health may begin
with a Healing Crisis
As you move toward better health with natural healing programs and
better nutrition, healing begins to occur. As part of the healing process
the body will begin to discard toxic residues which have built up in your
body over the years. The healing process usually does not occur without
repercussions. During the initial phase of healing, as your body begins
to clean house, (detoxify) and your vital energy begins to repair and rebuild
internal organs, you may experience headache, uneasiness, flu like symptoms
and fatigue. It is important that you adequately rest during this time.
These symptoms will pass as your body begins to normalize to a new level
of health. As you continue to improve, you may begin a process called retracing.
You
may feel worse before you feel better. For example, if you used to
get skin rashes, the rashes may reappear or get worse for a period of time
as your body eliminates toxins through the skin. You may also experience
an initial increase in urination, or you may feel more nervous. In actuality,
you are not getting worse, you are actually getting better. Eventually
you will reach a plateau of better health. During the healing crisis, it
is important to not suppress these temporary symptoms with drugs or the
healing process may become interrupted.

Profound Life-Giving Properties
of Marine Phytoplankton
Dr. Jerry Tennant, MD, from the Tennant Institute of Integrative
Medicine, explains that the micronutrients and electrolytes in marine
phytoplankton (microscopic plants/organism that live in the ocean)
are exactly what human cell membranes need to carry out their metabolism.
Not
surprisingly, the composition of human plasma, or fluid surrounding cell
membranes, is similar to that of sea water. Relying solely on land-based
food sources may lead to deficiencies in these micronutrients and electrolytes.
While transient sub-optimal nutrition may be forgiven, a constant diet
lacking in these micronutrients will adversely affect every function, structure,
and detoxification functions of the human cell. Good nutrition will enhance
the structure and function of all organs in our bodies. Our brains, muscles,
hearts, arteries, joints, bones, skin, hair, hormones, immune system, vision,
digestion, kidneys, liver will carry out their jobs much better. Metabolically,
our lipids, and sugars can be optimized, thus providing more overall energy,
minimize weight problems, and improve sleep. These nutrients improve mental
function, and memory. They reduce depression, harmful effects of stress,
and mood swings.
"I had back surgery in 1979 and 1982. I spent a year in bed trying to
get rid of the inflammation, which didn't work so I have spent the last
25 years on painkillers and anti inflammatories. I also have high blood
pressure, GERD, Fibromyalgia, Pan Sinusitis
(operated on in 2005) and heel spurs, and of course a weight problem. I
am a walking talking piece of art. I started taking Marine Phytoplankton
two weeks before Easter. I started with a bang! 1 oz. in the morning and
1 oz. at night, with the idea that if it works - great! (I really didn't
expect that it would). I would give it a valiant effort and take one case.
If there were no changes, then I wasn't buying anymore. This Easter I had
16 people over for dinner. We left on that Wed. for Fairmont for 4 days
and on the next Friday I drove to Red Deer for a three-day convention.
I usually do the family gatherings here at home as I am always on painkillers
and anti inflammatories. Surprise, I didn't need any and my leg didn't
burn! While I was in Fairmont we sat around and ate and ate, and then went
to the convention and sat for hours and hours and ate way too much the
rest of the time. Normally I don' t sit well, I'm usually the one in the
back pacing back and forth, but not this time. After all this eating for
two weeks, I thought if I only put on 5-7 pounds that I would be laughing.
I actually lost weight! That is unbelievable for me! have lost weight
every single week since I started taking Marine
Phytoplankton (now affectionately know as Mom's "joy juice"). I have
more energy, the Fibromyalgia is almost non-existent,
and my blood pressure pills and my Losec for the GERD have been cut in
half. My feet don't bother me, and my specialist who did my surgery for
the pan sinusitis said to keep taking my steroids or I will be back in
for another surgery, guaranteed - but it all looks great! Little does he
know that I haven't taken the steroids at all. My family doctor wants me
to take the Marine Phytoplankton at the 2 oz. per day for three months
and then see her. She had noticed that I had lost weight, moved better,
and looked better (lack of pain will do that for you). She is very interested
in Marine Phytoplankton. My only pain now is sore cheeks from smiling,
and I am constantly saying I can't believe that I don't have any pain -
it's awesome!" D. K.
Hugo Rodier M.D. - "There are very few products that provide
all, or even most, of the raw materials to make new cells and sustain the
existing ones. The problem is that we need ALL of them at the same time
for things to work. One of those rare products that contains almost everything
you need for life (and the rebuilding of a healthy life) is
marine
phytoplankton. It contains the nine amino acids that the body cannot
make...The essential fatty acids are also present (Omega 3 and Omega 6).
Vitamins A, B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B12, C, D and major and trace minerals
are all present in phtyoplankton.Marine phytoplankton can reduce depression,
harmful effects of stress, and mood swings. more
Dr. Robert Rowe Ph.D - "My 81 year old mother had been telling
me how much energy she had been having since taking the phytoplankton.
However she had misunderstood the amount she should be taking – she was
consuming mere drops, rather than the proper ounces. Having been a student
of homeopathy, it suddenly dawned on me there
must be a major energy component activated, even though her dosage was
so small. The work of Fritz Popp came to mind: Dr. Popp, a world renowned
physicist, found that living things emit small packets of light called
photons. We can see the phosphorescence produced in the ocean when the
water is stirred at night; we are able to see the sparkling photon light
produced. Dr. Popp was able to show that the effects of a compound could
be duplicated just by bombarding water with the electromagnetic frequency
of the compound, which is how homeopathy works. Other
amazing testimonials: Healing with Marine PhytoPlankton
Dr. Jerry Tennant, M.D. says that marine
phytoplankton contains almost everything one needs to sustain life
and to restore health by providing the raw materials to make new cells
that function normally. Marine phytoplankton has been called "the most
nutritionally dense foods on the planet". Containing a wide range of trace
elements, amino acids, vitamins, minerals, chlorophyll, enzymes and cellular
materials, marine phytoplankton promotes and maintains optimum health by
boosting and supporting all systems within the body. Its antioxidants and
unique polysaccharides can halt the genetic mutations that can lead to
cancer. Both high levels of saccharides and adaptogens increase energy
and stamina by improving our ability to consume and use oxygen. Adaptogens
also improve cardiovascular health by strengthening the heart and circulation.

Neurotoxin: MSG and How it is
Hidden in our Food and Vaccines
Monosodium Glutamate (MSG) has been used for many years as a flavor
enhancer for a variety of foods prepared at home, in restaurants, and by
food processors. FDA has studied adverse reaction reports and other data
concerning MSG's safety for many years. Ingestion of monosodium glutamate
(MSG) is known to produce a variety of adverse reactions. These reactions,
although seemingly dissimilar, are no more diverse than the reactions found
as side effects of certain neurological drugs. Jerry Smith, a clinical
pharmacist from the University of Florida found our web site and contacted
us for more information. He has written a case report on four
fibromyalgia patients whose symptoms markedly improved after decreasing
the MSG in their diets. With the help of their physicians, he will submit
the report to the JAMA for publication. We can only hope that more doctors
will become alerted to the real dangers of MSG, aspartame, and other excitotoxins
as a result. More scientific studies and cold hard facts will eventually
make a difference in this uphill battle. more
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and
the Yeast Connection
By William G. Crook, M.D.
Because of my interest in CFS, about a year ago I began working on a
new illustrated book titled
Chronic
Fatigue Syndrome and the Yeast Connection -- a "get well" guide
for people with this often misunderstood disorder -- and those who care
for them. (Publication date: July 24, 1992.)
This book will discuss the many factors which play a part in causing
the illness known as Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. These include viral infections,
food sensitivities, chemical pollutants, nutritional deficiencies, parasites
and psychological stress.
In some individuals with CFS, the illness develops suddenly following
an acute epidemic viral infection similar to the one that occurred in Incline
Village, Nevada in 1984 or the Los Angeles Hospital in 1930. Yet the observations
of Carol Jessop, a leading CFS clinician and researcher, show that this
disorder often develops insidiously -- especially in individuals who give
a history of:
* Repeated courses of antibiotic drugs in childhood,
adolescence or adult years
* Recurrent vaginal yeast infections
* Diets loaded with sugar and alcohol more
Magnesium Deficiency's Role in
Fibroyalgia/Chronic Fatigue
Results of a preliminary study including 24 people with fibromyalgia
suggest that a proprietary tablet containing both malic acid and magnesium
may improve pain and tenderness associated with this health condition when
taken for at least 2 months. Others suggest that the combination of calcium
and magnesium may be helpful for some people with fibromyalgia. Magnesium
chloride is nothing short of a miracle mineral in its healing effect on
a wide range of diseases as well as in its ability to rejuvenate the aging
body. We know that it is essential for many enzyme reactions, especially
in regard to cellular energy production, for the health of the brain and
nervous system and also for healthy teeth and bones.
Some early signs of magnesium deficiency are loss of appetite,
nausea, vomiting, fatigue, and weakness. Increased deficiency may show
as numbness, tingling, muscle contractions and cramps, seizures, personality
changes, abnormal heart rhythms, and coronary spasms. Severe deficiency
results in low levels of calcium in the blood (hypocalcemia), and is also

"I personally started taking magnesium for spasms and facial tics, only
doing so on my own after neurologists simply told me to either get better
sleep or take a prescription drug. The magnesium helped almost immediately,
and I then slowly increased the dose to about 225% the RDA (balanced with
100% calcium RDA) At that point, all spasms and tics stopped completely,
and they have not returned since starting that dose several years ago.
I doubt any traditional doctor would have been willing to prescribe that
much magnesium. The RDA is 400mg, but many people believe this is too low.
Traditionally, it's been recommended to take calcium and magnesium in a
ratio of 2/1, because that is the ratio that these minerals are found in
bone." (more on healthy bone program)
---- The Role of
Magnesium in Fibromyalgia
Most
popular products...
Magnesium
deficiency is very common in the general US population. Not only
is our daily intake low, but we eat a diet which increases the demand for
magnesium. And unfortunately, urinary magnesium loss can be increased
by many factors, both physical and emotional. Magnesium loss increases
in the presence of certain hormones. Stress can greatly increase
magnesium loss. Even loud noises can extra magnesium loss. One article
on the web goes so far as to say that that almost everyone is the United
States is at least marginally deficient in magnesium. So there is
an excellent chance that a person with fibromyalgia has a magnesium
deficiency. But since people with fibromyalgia often have high
levels of stress, and a disrupted hormonal system, they are more likely
to be candidates for magnesium deficiency. Magnesium utilization
is also increased by the presence of estrogen, and this might explain why
many women are diagnosed
with fibromyalgia after menopause, when estrogen levels would decrease.
Additionally, the sleep disruption which occurs in fibromyalgia might also
affect magnesium utilization, as sleep deprivation has been shown to cause
lower magnesium levels.
Magnesium is extremely important to many functions in the body, which
is why a deficiency can cause many different symptoms. It is most
widely known for being needed for proper bone formation. With a deficiency,
bones will be soft, and it can play a role in osteoporosis
However, magnesium is also the activating mineral for at least 350 different
enzymes in the body, more than any other mineral, so it is crucial for
many of the metabolic functions in the body. Magnesium is necessary
for almost all the enzymes that allow the glycolytic and Krebs cycles to
turn the sugar and fat we eat into ATP. Low levels of ATP have commonly
been found in people with fibromyalgia, and it is believed that this plays
an important role in many of the fibromyalgia symptoms. Thus, a magnesium
deficiency would definitely be a factor in worsening those symptoms.
Migraine headaches, mitral valve prolapse, and Raynaud's phenomenon,
all problems commonly found in people with fibromyalgia, are also problems
that have been associated with a magnesium deficiency.
Without enough magnesium, nerves fire too easily from even minor stimuli.
Noises will sound excessively loud, lights will seem too bright, emotional
reactions will be exaggerated, and the brain will be too stimulated to
sleep, all symptoms commonly found in fibromyalgia. And if the oversensitivity
to light and noise reminds you of someone suffering from a hangover, they
are one and the same problem, as alcohol is known for decreasing magnesium
levels, and magnesium supplementation has been found to relieve hangover
symptoms.
Another commonly found condition in fibromyalgia which has nervous related
symptoms is reactive hypoglycemia. Anxiety related symptoms occur
after carbohydrate intake, and this is believed to be due to either an
excess release of adrenaline, or a higher sensitivity to adrenaline.
In either case, a deficiency of magnesium could be a factor, as "magnesium
has been found to slow the release of both adrenaline and noradrenaline,
and to partially block adrenergic receptors."
Magnesium
(various types and forms)
Magnesium is a natural tranquilizer
Called the "anti-stress mineral," it aids in relaxing nerves, relieving
tension, assisting digestion, activating enzymes important for protein
and carbohydrate metabolism, and modulating the electrical potential across
all cell membranes. Magnesium is important in the production and transfer
of energy, muscle contraction and relaxation, and nerve conduction. It
also aids regularity, is necessary to keep vertebrae in their proper position,
induces restful sleep, purifies and purges body tissues (combats acids,
toxins, gases, impurities, and neutralizes poisons), and lowers fever.
Magnesium is stored in the bowel, nerves and ligaments. Chlorophyll and
green vegetables contain large amounts of magnesium. more

Identify and Treat the Causes of Disease
Illness does not occur without cause. Causes may originate in many areas.
Underlying causes of illness and disease must be identified and removed
before complete recovery can occur. Symptoms can be expressions of the
body's attempt to defend itself, to adapt and recover, to heal itself,
or may be results of the causes of disease.
CHRONIC FATIGUE SYNDROME:
THE HIDDEN POLIO EPIDEMIC by Dr. William Campbell Douglas
Dr. Richard Bruno, New Jersey Medical School, Department of Physical
Medicine, pointed out, in the New York Academy report, that of more than
a dozen outbreaks of CFS before the introduction of the Salk vaccine, nine
occurred during or immediately after polio outbreaks and several of the
victims of CFS had been taking care of polio patients. As the polio vaccination
program opened the door for these opportunistic relatives of polio, the
CFS epidemic gathered steam and the new polio was upon us. One of the forerunners
in this research is Dr. Elizabeth Dowsett, a microbiologist
from
Britain. Dr. Dowsett states unequivocally what you don't hear in this country:
True CFS (as differentiated from other fatigue states) "strikes one clinically
as being polio-like and it has often been diagnosed as 'nonparalytic polio.'

(Aspartame is the technical name for the brand names, NutraSweet, Equal,
Spoonful, and Equal-Measure.)
According to researchers and physicians studying the adverse effects
of aspartame, the following chronic illnesses can be triggered or worsened
by ingesting of aspartame: Brain tumors, multiple sclerosis, epilepsy,
chronic fatigue syndrome, Parkinson's
disease, alzheimer's, mental retardation, lymphoma, birth defects, fibromyalgia,
and diabetes.
"I have observed severe intellectual deterioration associated with the
use of aspartame products (NutraSweet/Equal/Spoonful/Canderal/Benevia,

Relationship to Fibromyalgia
Syndrome, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/M.E. and the Possible Role of
Vaccines
by Prof. Garth L. Nicolson
Complex Role of Toxic Exposures in Chronic Illnesses Fibromyalgia
Syndrome (FMS), Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/Myalgic Encepthalomyelitis (CFS/ME)
and Gulf War Illnesses (GWI) are characterized by similar chronic signs
and symptoms. This is why we proposed that GWI is a CFS/ME illness.
Other chronic illnesses, such as Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA), Inflammatory
Bowel Disease, among others, also show many of these same signs and symptoms,
suggesting that there may be some overlap in the underlying causes of these
conditions or at least in the factors that may result in sickness (morbidity)
or illness progression. The treatments of chronic illnesses that are due
to toxic exposures from chemical or radiological agents are quite different
from the treatment of chronic infections [2]. The treatment of chemically
exposed patients usually involves removal of offending chemicals from the
patient's environment, depletion of chemicals from the patient's system
and treatment of the signs and symptoms caused by chemical exposure(s).
Chemically exposed patients are often extremely sensitive to a variety
of commonly encountered chemicals, including perfumes and air fresheners,
petrochemical fumes, chlorine, cleaning solutions and solvents, among others.
They are also very sensitive to certain foods, and special diets are often
necessary, and in some cases direct skin contact with certain substances
can cause strong cutaneous reactions. Therefore, an important part
of treatment for chemical exposures requires limiting exposures to a variety
of common chemicals and gradual removal of the toxic chemical.
Autoimmune
or Viral Disease? Consider Vaccine Contamination
by Dr. Joseph Mercola
"...Dr. John Martin, currently at the University of Southern California
School of Medicine, detected a herpesvirus-related DNA sequence in several
people suffering from Chronic Fatigue syndrome. Martin points the finger
at contaminated vaccine lots found in early years of the Polio vaccination
programs and suggest that animal viruses may have been inadvertently introduced
into humans. “If a vaccine program were to be initiated today,” says Dr.
Martin “One surely would not import wild monkeys from Africa, create
short term primary kidney cultures, add a human virus and administer the
crude batch derived from virally infected cells to virtually every child
in the country.” Monkey kidney cells are used for Polio and Adeno vaccines,
while dog and duck kidney cells have been used for rubella vaccines and
chicken cells used for measles and mumps vaccines. Martin and Tommisc both
suspect these animals viruses, possibly now co-mingled with human herpes-virus,
to be the cause of many of the diseases they are seeing today..." more

Nutritional Influence On Health
Malnutrition is the basis of all disease: "Man's body is a living
organism, made of living cells, which require living food in order to be
properly nourished and function well. When we put cooked food into our
body, loaded with contaminants, the body starts to break down. It begins
in the very young with colic, rashes, colds, earaches, upset stomachs,
swollen glands and tonsils. As the child grows older, their may be tooth
decay, pimples, the need for eye glasses, etc. Then as we enter adult life
there is arthritis, hypoglycemia, heart attacks, strokes, diabetes and
cancers. All this and a multitude of other diseases are unnecessary and
are nothing but the result of improper diet and lifestyle! Today,
most people accept cooked food as the normal means of supplying the body
with nutrients, not realizing that the living cells of our bodies do not
take nourishment from the dead and artificial ingredients found in cooked
food. And so, after a typical meal of cooked meat, cooked potatoes, a cooked
vegetable and a piece of cooked
bread,
followed by a cooked sugar desert, their stomach is full and they think
they have satisfied the nutritional needs of their body. In reality, they
have given their body practically no nourishment. And thus with a full
stomach, they are slowly starving their body's cells." Learn about The
Incredible Healing Powers of Raw (Living) Foods and Juices
Most human illnesses and diseases are due to a deficiency of vital nutrients.
When you supply your body with the proper nutrients, in a form that your
body can use, it knows how to repair itself. "The body has the inherent
ability -the vitality -not only to heal itself and restore health, but
also to ward off disease. Illness is not caused simply by an invasion
of external agents or germs, but is a manifestation of the organism's attempt
to defend and heal itself. Prevention Is the Best Cure. Health is a reflection
of how we choose to live." TC Fry

Miracle
OF MSM
"In a double-blind study of MSMs impact ondegenerative arthritis,
he found that patients who ingested 2,250mg of MSM a day for six weeks
felt an improvement in their pain reduction by 82%, on average.
Ronald M. Lawrence MD - "I've been practicing medicine
for 50 years, and in all those years I've never seen a substance like this"
Lawrence says in The Journal of Anti-Aging Medicine a peer-reviewed scientific
journal, published Lawrence's preliminary study results last July. Arthritic
cartilage has only one-third the level of sulfur concentration of normal
cartilage - perhaps that is why MSM has been so effective in treating arthritis.
But researchers don't know for sure if MSM is beneficial for arthritis
because of its sulfur content or because of its antiinflammatory and analgesic
properties. Unlike aspirin, which offers immediate pain relief "MSM takes
three to four weeks before you have noticable changes Lawrence says, "except
in rheumatioid patients - they have felt differences in just one day, and
certainly bythree or four days." According to Jacob, Lawrence and Zucker's
forthcoming book, MSM can be a natural remedy for: osteoarthritis,rheumatoid
arthritis,
fibromyalgia,
tendonitis and bursitis,
muscular
soreness and athletic injuries,
carpal tunnel syndrome,
post - traumatic inflammation and pain,
heartburn and hyperacidity,
headaches
and back pain, allergies."
MSM,
a natural form of organic sulphur found in all living organisms, is
present in body fluids and tissues. It is part of the amino acid chain.
Without the presence of the proper amount of MSM in the body, the amino
acids will continue to build the glands but fail to produce the correct
enzymes, so animals and people are then prone to unnecessary illnesses.
MSM is an important dietary supplement for people and animals.
MSM (Methyl-Sulfonyl-Methane) is a pure, organic, non-toxic, non-metallic
element that occurs widely in nature. MSM has been shown to be completely
non-toxic in study after study, even in high dosages. Storehouses of MSM,
in mammals, decreases with age, which may be caused by changing diet or
body metabolism. This should not be allowed to occur. Your body uses MSM
to continually create new healthy cells to replace old ones. If your body
is not receiving the proper nutrition including MSM, the body may produce
weak dysfunctional cells.
MSM detoxifies the body and increases blood circulation. It is also
a free radical scavenger, prevents overreaction to other medicines, controls
acidity, coats the intestinal tract so parasites lose the ability to hang
on, helps to utilize vitamins and minerals, thereby providing the means
to derive the maximum benefit from what we and our animals eat. learn

Toxemia and Internal Cleansing (Fasting)
"Autogenous self-generated poisoning is what we call Toxaemia."
Natural Hygiene holds that the one cause of all disease is the toxic
saturation at the cellular level of the bodily tissues, bloodstream, and
fluids brought on by the depletion of Nerve Energy reserves through wrong
living habits. This state of self-poisioning is alternately termed "Auto-Intoxication,"
"Toxicosis," and "Toxemia." There is really only one disease of the body.
It is called Toxemia. Many doctors of natural hygiene have proven this
in their work, but common knowledge of the way the body works, along with
common sense, will also support this statement. In his book "Toxemia Explained"
Dr. John Tilden explains the definition of Toxemia as natures effort to
eliminate toxins from the blood.
Evart Loomis M.D. -"Fasting is the world's most ancient and natural
healing mechanism. Fasting triggers a truly wondrous cleansing process
that reaches right down to each and every cell and tissue in the body.
Within 24 hours of curtailing food intake, enzymes stop entering the stomach
and travel instead into the intestines and into the bloodstream, where
they circulate and gobble up all sorts of waste matter, including dead
and damaged cells, unwelcome microbes, metabolic wastes, and pollutants.
All organs and glands get a much-needed and well-deserved rest, during
which their tissues are purified and rejuvenated and their functions balanced
and regulated. The entire alimentary canal is swept clean. By rebuilding
immunity, health is naturally restored and disease disappears. If health
and immunity are thereafter conscientiously maintained, the individual
is no longer vulnerable to disease and dieting become unnecessary. Surely
one of the most overlooked and yet most valuable modes of healing that
will be rediscovered in the future of the new medicine is the fast. This
is because of the increasing interest in looking to oneself for healing
powers. For the fast is an inward process and cannot be entered upon only
from an outer approach with any expectation of a lasting benefit. The person
must invariably be involved with the overall results. This therapeutic
encounter is in direct contrast to the usual non-involvement in the physician-directed,
disease-oriented medical practice of today." more

Other Conditions Which Are Extremely Common with Fibromyalgia Include:
Allergies, chronic rhinitis (almost constant runny nose), easy bruising,
night cramps, restless leg syndrome, dizziness (sometimes caused by the
widely prescribed anti-depressant medication given to help the sleep problems
in FMS), sleep apnoea (breathing seems to stop while asleep), dry eyes
and mouth, bruxism (teeth grinding), extreme sensitivity to light (photophobia),
premenstrual syndrome, digestive disturbances, viral infections, Lyme disease
(resulting from tick-bite), itchy skin - with or without a rash, loss of
hair, sensitive bladder, mouth ulcers, generalised muscular stiffness,
‘foggy’ brain (difficulty in concentrating and poor short term memory),
dyslexia (wrong words come out or what is read is not understood), panic
attacks, phobias, mood swings, irritability, a feeling of hands and feet
being swollen without evidence of fluid retention.
