Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and ME
Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) can be a debilitating condition. Stopping you being the full and complete person you could be – whether this be socialising, sporting achievements, academia, or climbing the career ladder.
CFS is often a multifaceted condition. The Nutritional Medicine CFS programme focuses on ENERGY from all aspects:
• the production of energy by the mitochondria,
• the storage of glucose by the liver,
• the retrieval of glucose by the adrenals,
• the balancing of blood and cellular glucose,
• the energy usage by the immune system (allergies and pathogens),
• the regulating of energy production by the thyroid,
• the status of energy nutrients, and
• those factors that are known to inhibit energy.
All these factors are vital for the effective production, storage and usage of ENERGY.
The key to these processes functioning well and effectively are building blocks. For example - cofactors such as Vitamin B3, magnesium and manganese for the Citric Acid Cycle, Vitamins A, B6 and C for the immune system, and antioxidants like Vitamin E, selenium and Carotene to help protect the mitochondria from oxidative damage.
