Herbs and Nutrition

Many people today feel comforted by the “natural” approach, preferring treatment with herbs and nutrition to standard medications. Just remember that “natural” doesn’t mean 100% safe – even homegrown organic herbs can interact with other drugs and/or cause side effects. Helpful nutritional supplements include calcium/magnesium tablets, malic acid, and B-complex. Commonly used herbs include St. John’s Wort for depression, Valerian for sleep disorders, and Evening Primrose Oil, whose fatty acids benefit the body in many ways without causing adverse side effects.


Fibromyalgia Information

Reliable and timely Fibromyalgia information is often hard to find. What is Fibromyalgia? Who gets Fibromyalgia? How does one arrive at a Fibromyalgia diagnosis? Sometimes your doctor won’t be able to answer your questions for you. There are no specialists in this disorder, so doctors don’t always have access to the latest research. Furthermore, many Fibromyalgia information sources confuse the disorder with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, a disease associated with similar symptoms.
