Supplements for Fibromyalgia

 Multiple tender points, fatigue and pain in the muscles and tendons, anxiety, depression, sleep disorders and irritable bowel syndrome tend to co-exist with fibromyalgia. Certain supplements can help reduce inflammation, pain and other fibromyalgia symptoms, but some supplements are toxic in high doses, check with your healthcare professional before adding any of the following suggestions.

It's funny how in the beginning throes of fibromyalgia you become obsessed with medical testing.  Tests upon tests blanketed with co-pay after copay, forces one into the self realization that this chronic illness is best approached through personalized symptom reduction.  Pharmaceutical medications work in some areas of distress; but overall, the more pills you take, the more disillusioned you become, and the less zest for life you have.   

The best defense is a good offense to reducing painful flare-ups.  The following supplements have been known to reduce symptoms in fibromyalgia patients.

Vitamin B Complex

Vitamin B Complex is a group of vitamins that re found in a wide variety of meats, fish, dairy products, vegetables, and whole grains.  If you are a vegan or under a lot of stress, you may be short on this vitamin.Research suggests that many fibromyalgia sufferers are low in vitamin B1 (thiamine),

B Complex vitamins are needed for normal muscle function, energy release, a healthy nervous system and for the production of serotonin.  Fibromyalgia symptoms have been linked with high levels of homocysteine, an amino acid produced in the body.  Supplementing with vitamin B complex has been shown to lower homocysteine levels.  

I personally use the Ultra Woman 50 Plus from Puritan Pride.  There are other Ultra Woman vitamins available depending on your age.  Their vitamins are reasonably priced and they offer free shipping and buy one get two days.

Capsaicin Gel

Capsaicin gel is extracted from chillis.   It eases tenderness associated with fibromyalgia.  The tenderness is due to high levels of a protein called substance P, which is involved in the transmission of pain signals from the nerve endings of the brain and inflammation in the joints.  Capsaicin gel reduces these protein levels.

5-Hydorxytryptophan (5-HTP)

The body uses 5-HTP to make serontonin.  5-HTP supplements are usually made from the seeds of the Griffonia plant from west Africa.  These seeds ease pain, clear 'fibro-fog', boosts mood, and promotes sleep.  Serotonin helps to regulate mood, pain, and sleep.  Research suggests that people with fibromyalgia have low levels of serotonin.  In a study published in Alternative Medicine Review, research concluded that supplementation with 5-HTP may help relieve fibromyalgia-related pain, stiffness, fatigue, depression, anxiety, and insomnia.

Magnesium

Magnesium is a mineral that is deficient in many who suffer from fibromyalgia.  It is speculated that chronic fatigue affects levels of a growth hormone, which in turn affects magnesium levels.  A shortage of this nutrient is thought to contribute to muscle pain and fatigue.  Magnesium boosts mood and energy levels, relaxes the muscles, and eases muscle pain.  Magnesium is involved in the production of energy and mood-boosting serotonin which is needed for healthy muscle and nerve function.  Magnesium malate, found in apples and oranges, reduces lactic acid in the muscles which is linked to muscle pain and tenderness.

I use Cal-Mag from Puritan Pride.  This supplement gives me my daily quota of Calcium, magnesium, and zinc in a simple to take tablet.  A coupon is provided below for Puritan Pride.  Sign up today for great incentives that will be sent via email.  All their products are made at the facility and  closely monitored for peak freshness.

My mother have been suffering from fibromyalgia disease for the last 3 years and had constant pain, especially in her neck,During the first year,she had faith in God that she will be healed someday by the Almighty. This disease started circulate all over my moms body and she have been taking treatment from her doctor, few weeks ago i came on search on the internet if i could get any information concerning the prevention of this disease, on my search i saw a testimony of someone who has been healed from (fibromyalgia) by this man DR Abumere and she also gave the email address of this man and advise we should contact him for any sickness that he would be of help, so i wrote to DR Abumere telling him about my mothers fibromyalgia disease he told me not to worry that my mom is gonna be okay with his herbal remedies!! actually i never believed it,, well after all the procedures and remedy given to me by this man i went to discuss it with my mom and explain everything to her on what she is about to take in,because Dr Abumere told me my mother must stop other medication just to make sure his own work properly,she agreed because this great doctor gave me assurance about his good work.
Weeks later after my mother start using this herbal medicine she started experiencing changes all over her as the DR assured me that she will cured,after some time i went to her doctor to confirmed if she has finally healed behold it was TRUE, So dear viewers my advise is if you have such sickness or any other at all you can email DR Abumere on: abumereherbalcentre@gmail.com or visit his website: www.abumereherbalcentre.simplesite.com

I was haven herpes 2 on my private part. I have had them for about 2 and a bit years. I am so scared what my mates are going to says if there should fined out i have herpes on my private part and due to the virus my girlfriend broke up with me. I have been to the Doctors 9 times to get it treated. They all come back. I have been using Tee Tree Oil and Wartner (You freeze them at home) and they seem to be keeping the smaller herpes small but they can't seem to treat the larger ones. They don't get any bigger, but then they can't shrink as much. They get smaller a little part at a time. At least they are getting smaller! As soon as I see a new herpes appearing, then I treat it. At the moment I have been using Tee Tree twice a week and then using Wartner every 2 weeks. I was wondering if there was any other information about how to get rid of it. I am only a teenager and I hate it most when it get pi-chins me to scratch it, it get sweets when scratching it most times! I want to get rid of it so bad! DR.ONOKUN website has been a huge help and has helped me realize a lot more about me and my family of genital herpes! so that was when i switch for natural remedy to see if there could be any help by herbal remedy, i search and i saw a great posts by Sarah devise adebayo ehijactor and shanttel Merritt on about the great herbal doctor that get them rid of there disease infection. and this great herbal doctor was called DR.ONOKUN so that was when i contacted him for my own treatment and he prepared me some herbs which i takes for some couples of days, and i take it as he says before i am to no me and my family was perfectly cure for it and never experience it again. please friends if you have herpes virus and you really wants to get rid of it, please contact this great DR.ONOKUN for herbal treatment and you will get rid of it.
