Opis

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (also known as "Myalgic Encephalitis") and Fibromyalgia affect millions of Americans and many millions more worldwide. The Debilitating fatigue and joint/muscle pain these syndromes cause can seriously reduce the quality-of-life for those who experience them. Aspects of these illnesses can include the following. * Viral, fungal and bacterial components * hormonal and nutritional deficiencies * adrenal fatigue (low cortisol and/or DHEA levels) Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Fibromyalgia are real illnesses recognized by the U.S. National Institutes of Health and other World Health Organizations. While they are separately recognized illnesses, they have 75% crossover similarities. It is my hope that this book will provide an informative general educational resource for readers wishing to learn more about these very real, life-changing illnesses. This book is not intended to be an extensive manual but is intended to contain information most often sought by laypersons on the subject.
