How To Deal With Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Health And Fitness : Top Health Tips

This Fatigue Is Known As The Epstein Barr Virus.

Doc Says:

This virus is what causes chronic fatigue syndrome. A condition that has become widespread in the U. S. This virus is also the cause of mononucleosis. EBV is a member of the herpes family, and is related to the viruses that cause genital herpes and shingles.

The symptoms of chronic fatigue also called the Yuppie disease are fever, sore throat, swollen glands, extreme fatigue, appetite loss, recurrent upper respiratory tract infections, intestinal problems, jaundice, anxiety depression, irritability and mood swings, sleep disturbances, sensitivity to light and heat, temporary memory loss, difficulty in concentrating, headache, spasms, aching muscles and joints. The symptoms of this syndrome resemble flu and other viral symptoms, so it is not always diagnosed correctly.
It is often misdiagnosed as hypochondria, psychosomatic illness, or depression, because the tests that are routinely ordered by docs give negative results.

A cure or vaccine for this virus, has not yet been developed. It is difficult for docs to identify, and the symptoms vary widely.
This syndrome is three times more prevalent in women, than men.

The center for disease control center estimates, that tens of thousands of people, are infected with this virus. Many are only carriers of the virus, and are unaware that they have it, because they have no symptoms. Once EBV is contracted it remains in the body , but most people develp antibodies to EBV.

The Epstein virus is highly contagious.
It can be passed from one person to another by close contact, kissing, sharing food, and coughing, and it can be sexually transmitted. A person cannot become immune to EBV, and antibiotics will not help, because it is a viral disease. The virus causes overreaction of the immune system, which results in a type of immunity ? burnout?

Chronic fatigue can also be caused by the fungus Candida albicans, chronic mercury poisoning from dental amalgam fillings, anemia, hypoglycemia, hypothyroidism, and sleep problems.

If a person has elevated antibodies and if several of the symptoms mentioned above persist for two to three months EBV is suspected, especially if all other symptom ? producing illnesses have been ruled out. Your doc must rule out endocrine disease, aids, infections, anemia, parasites, and other diseases that have similar symptoms as well.

Even though EBV is not life threatening, it is still incurable and can do serious damage to the immune system. It is important that family members fully understand this disorder and realize that the person suffering from the virus is not exaggerating or faking the symptoms.

Recommendations:
Make sure the bowels move daily.
Add fiber to your diet.
Consume 8 glasses of water a day.
Eat soured products such as yogurt.
Occasionally cleaning enemas should be used.
A well balanced diet of 50 % raw foods, and fresh live juices is beneficial.
The diet should consist mostly of vegetables, fruits, whole grains, seeds, raw nuts, skinless turkey, and deep water fish. These quality foods simply supply nutrients that ultimately renew energy and build immunity

DO NOT EAT SHELLFISH

ABSOLUTELY NO ASPIRIN.

Eliminate fried foods, junk foods, processed foods, stimulants including coffee, tea, soft drinks, sugar, white flour products such as bread and spaghetti.

PLENTY OF REST AND PROPER DIET ARE VERY IMPORTANT.
