FIBROMYALGIA
(From HealthQuarters Monthly, Dave Fraam N.D., author)

Have you ever seen the commercial on TV these days hawking some drug for relieving the pain of Fibromyalgia? Here’s this art teacher writing in her journal about the pain in her body that day, and singing the praises of “such and such” medication that allowed her to do her day pain-free.....and I want to scream at her “don’t just mask the symptoms with pain relievers and keep living with the label, address the cause and get rid of it.”
Over the years I’ve tested a number of folks who’ve come to my office bringing with them a medical diagnosis of “fibromyalgia” (fibro meaning muscles, and myalgia means sore). The typical medical agenda is to give pain relievers and anti-depressants.... and folks walk away thinking they’ll have this condition for the rest of their lives. No, not if you address the underlying compromises in the system that is the cause of the symptoms.

* Yeast overgrowth
* Exhausted adrenals
* Insufficient stomach acid production
* Weak Thyroid
* Sluggish liver
* Sluggish colon
* Unbalanced estrogen (lack of progesterone production)
* Depleted serotonin (pain threshold drops...feel pain more intensely)
* Depleted magnesium (key mineral for muscle health and relaxation).

Folks with this pattern feel far worse than any clients we see, even those with cancer. It’s not life-threatening, but I’ll tell ya what, folks feel like death warmed over. Pain all over, depression, fatigue, etc, etc, etc. It’s hard to convince such people that there is light at the end of the tunnel, and that they’ll feel much improved within 30-60 days. Those that take our input seriously and do aim at the right targets with the right ammunition...well, they come back feeling like life is worth the living again.
Hey, if you know anyone who’s been handed the label of “ fibromyalgia”, please encourage them that it’s just a condition of yeast overgrowth and exhausted adrenals, made more complicated by some additional factors, and that it makes complete sense. The cause is not a mystery. It can be eliminated if they’re willing. They don’t need to just live with it, masking the symptoms, for months and years like so many do that I hear about.

Herbs ‘n’ Whey Input

We have found that those who use the Foundation Program for total body support and add just one or two direct aids to address specific energy building needs feel better faster with fewer products to take.

Foundation Program
Enzymes (NSP offers Food Enzymes or Proactazyme.)
Probiotics (NSP offers L-reuteri, Bifidophilus and Probiotic 11. Health experts recommend rotating these. When one bottle is gone, switch to the next one, then the next, then start with the first again.)
Super Trio (contains Super Supplemental, Super Orac and Super Omega 3)
Fiber (NSP offers LoClo, Nature’s Three, or Psyllium Hulls Combination)

We are hearing great things about the Fibralgia Formula. It is being reported from customers that when they take 4-5 capsules morning and night, the muscle pain is much less. This formula provides valuable nutrients often missing in people who have muscle pain. These nutrients help get energy to the muscles.

Success!

Valerie Sobotka writes:
“I had chronic heartburn so bad to the point of almost crying, it bothered me so bad. Within 24 hours of taking Food Enzymes the heartburn was gone and I have had none since. I have no heavyness in my stomach anymore. I had chronic edema and this is considerably better. Also:
--Cold hands and feet are far better
--Sleeping better
--Cravings for sugar are better”

Valerie started taking Super Trio, Psyllium Hulls capsules, Bifidophilus, Food Enzymes, and Mineral Chi Tonic in June 2008.
