Hi everyone,

My gran has Fibromyalgia and both my mum and I suffer from MS. I think it is really important to focus on diet!

Since I got diagnosed with MS and was told there was nothing that could be done I turned to natural and alternative ways. I real;ised there is so much that CAN be done, not to CURE but to live without any of the symtoms or relapses.

Since all this happened to me, i decided to go back to the UK and study both nutrition and herbal medicine.

My lecturers are master herbalists and more than 1 have told us stories of their success rates with Fibromyalgia patients.

So maybe those who want to investigate this side of things try a herbalist.

I also want to tell you a few things I've learned. Magnesium is very important in Fibro, so check for deficiencies. You should also treat for a leaky gut as most people suffering from Fibro have a leaky gut.

Things that aggravate: STRESS, TRAUMA, EXPOSURE TO DAMP OR COLD and POOR SLEEP

Also poor sleep causes lower levels of Magnesium. Maybe look for some nice herbal teas to induce sleep? Passiflora, chamomile .... etc

Fish oil supplementation is also important, (natural anti-inflammatory).

Also try a good safe, gentle detox to get your mitochondria working efficiently again. Toxins in your body can cause them to not work well and they are the energy producing organelle in the body.

Right, I think that is enough info, I might be boring everyone now. But I do hope it helps! If anyone wants anymore info please let me know
