9 Key Vitamins Needed To Help You Overcome Fibromyalgia Naturally
In this article, I'm going to detail some of the most common and most effective key vitamins that can be used to help relieve and manage the horrible symptoms of Fibromyalgia. Below is a list of those vitamins:
Phosphatidyl choline and phosphatidyl serine (300 mg per day) may help depression and improve memory.
B vitamins help reduce the effects of stress: B-complex (50 to 100 mg per day), B6 (100 mg per day) and niacinamide (100 mg per day) and assist in adrenal function to assist with muscle weakness, pain and sleep disorders and immune function.
Chromium picolinate (200 mcg with meals) may reduce reactive hypoglycemia which may make your symptoms worse.
Vitamin C (250 to 500 mg twice per day) reduces swelling and helps your immune system function better.
Magnesium (200 mg two to three times per day) with malic acid (1,200 mg one to two times per day) relieves pain and fatigue.
Melatonin (0.5 to 3 mg one time before bed) may help you to get a good nights sleep.
5-Hydroxytryptophan (100 mg three times per day) may help with depression and insomnia, both secondary disorders of fibromyalgia syndrome.
Coenzyme Q10 (50 to 100 mg one to two times per day) helps improves oxygen delivery to cells and tissues. It also has antioxidant activity.
Zinc (30 mg per day) is an essential mineral needed for proper immune system function.
Depending on what symptoms you may have, you can use the list above as a guideline for vitamins to discuss adding to your fibromyalgia diet with your physician.
Not all people with Fibromyalgia have the same symptoms, for instance you may not have difficulty sleeping or may not have trouble with your immune system, but you may have issues with chronic fatigue syndrome. That is why you need to consider carefully the symptoms you have and then make a list of vitamins you would like to add to your diet.
The vitamins listed above should be used in conjunction with medication and exercise recommended by your physician. Over time you may find that certain medications can be reduced and, possibly stopped altogether. However this is a decision that should be made under the doctors care. The best Fibromyalgia treatment is an approach that treats your whole body, inside and out with proper diet, exercise and when needed, medication.
