Fibromyalgia: Education and Research

Part of my holistic/multi-faceted treatment plan for Fibromyalgia and other chronic conditions includes taking magnesium citrate supplements. They help with pain levels, but I didn't know the full extent the impact of a magnesium deficiency could have.

An article I recently read talked about the significance of magnesium in our bodies. The article stated (the items in read are symptoms or issues I have): Dr. Dean has studied and written about magnesium for more than 15 years. The latest addition of her book, The Magnesium Miracle, came out in 2014 and in it you can learn about 22 medical areas that magnesium deficiency triggers or causes, all of which have all been scientifically proven. This includes:4

Anxiety and panic attacks Asthma Blood clots
Bowel diseases Cystitis Depression
Detoxification Diabetes Fatigue
Heart disease Hypertension Hypoglycemia
Insomnia Kidney disease Liver disease
Migraine Musculoskeletal conditions (fibromyalgia, cramps, chronic back pain, etc.) Nerve problems
Obstetrics and gynecology (PMS, infertility, and preeclampsia) Osteoporosis Raynaud’s syndrome
Tooth decay    

Early signs of magnesium deficiency include loss of appetite, headache, nausea, fatigue, and weakness. An ongoing magnesium deficiency can lead to more serious symptoms, including:

Numbness and tingling Muscle contractions and cramps Seizures
Personality changes Abnormal heart rhythms Coronary spasms

Read the full article for details and information on the importance and significance of magnesium.

Fibromyalgia: Education and Research

In my efforts at managing my Fibromyalgia and other chronic condition symptoms, I have discovered the impact different foods have on how I feel. This article lays out 10 non-fibro friendly foods that I thought was interesting and that others may find interesting and educational as well. Enjoy! :)

Article Excerpt: This list is assembled specifically for the fibromyalgia community in the interest of providing healing nutritional information.

You see, we all want to feel better.
We want less inflammation and pain.
We want more vitality and energy.

To understand the link between inflammation and our increased symptoms, we need look no further than what’s on our plates. What we eat relates directly to how we feel.

To clear away some of the nutritional information clutter, here’s a list of 10 foods you probably THINK are fibro-friendly – but they’re not:

  1. Whole wheat
  2. Whole grains
  3. Peanut butter
  4. Agave
  5. Dairy
  6. Cereal and breakfast foods
  7. Gluten free foods
  8. Fat free foods
  9. Soy/tofu
  10. Corn

"Don't let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God, and trust also in me. There is more than enough room in my Father's home. If this were not so, would I have told you that I am going to prepare a place for you? When everything is ready, I will come and get you, so that you will always be with me where I am. And you know the way to where I am going." - John 14:1-4
