The
most promising treatments for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and related health problems
such as Fibromyalgia seem to be achieved by sufferers who decided to take matters
into their own hands.
And in most cases, the success stories often stem from changes in lifestyle or
eating habits. Notably, many CFS sufferers have found relief by changing to a
lower carb style diet.
The
success of a low carb diet in treating Chronic fatigue might be contributed to
a number of things.
Lower
carb diets tend to control yeast bacteria in the bowel better because there is
not enough sugars and starches for the yeast to feed on.
Lower
carb diets also tend to balance out blood sugar levels, and in some cases they
balance blood pressure too.
There
are a variety of other benefits often achieved such as:
better nutrition,
vitamins,
minerals
and
fiber intake too.
These
promising results could be a simple matter of better personal knowledge about
nutrition, wellness, taking care of yourself and understanding how your body works.
Most
people who go on a low carb diet quickly find there are certain specific foods
that their body responds badly to.
You
don't have to start a low carb diet in order to help treat your chronic fatigue
naturally though. Simply improving your overall nutrition and eating habits can
often be all that's needed.
Adding
more fiber, fresh vegetables and fruits to your everyday eating routines is an
excellent first step.
The
additional fiber will help your body start moving old built up wastes, toxins
and chemicals out of your system, while the fruits and vegetables will help add
more nutrition and essential vitamins you may have been missing previously.
Some
people who suffer from chronic fatigue have found that by simply eliminating certain
foods from their diet they'll show marked improvements in their overall health.
Common
foods to eliminate which could be causing problems include:
milk products
and
gluten products such as wheat, rye and barley.
Taking
vitamin supplements can sometimes help too, but the kind you take will make a
difference.
Using
hard pill-form multivitamins may not work well, because these tend to not be absorbed
easily by your body.
Herbal
based vitamin supplements are much easier to absorb into your body and are
often much higher in trace nutritional elements.
Kelp,
for instance, is quite high in natural iodine, potassium, magnesium and numerous
other vitamins and minerals. This herb also helps regulate your thyroid, which
can help with some of the problems often found in chronic fatigue sufferers, such
as low blood pressure and low body temperatures.
Chlorophyll
is another natural source of rich vitamins and minerals which can make a world
of difference in improving your overall energy levels and health.
Herbs
which are high in chlorophyll include alfalfa and parsley.
