Unraveling the mystery of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

The mystery behind Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS), which affects some one in 100 Australians and millions of people worldwide, may finally be on the verge of being solved. Australian scientists believe the syndrome may actually be infection driven.

Complementary and alternative therapies may play an important role in the management of CFS, by helping to alleviate symptoms, and strengthen overall vitality. The most consistent finding with patients of CFS is decreased activity and number of natural killer cells6, immune cells that are involved in fight glandular fever and other viral infections.

Other immune cells can also be low in numbers.4,7 The natural approach to the treatment of chronic fatigue syndrome involves a gentle process to help re-build the immune system. Herbs like Siberian and Korean ginseng, Green Oats, Gotu Kola and Damiana have a long history of use for low energy and debility.

They have a tonifying effect and can help restore energy levels and improve mental alertness. Korean Ginseng is particularly useful for enhancing stamina, endurance and assists in convalescence after illness.

Fish oil for a Tired Brain

A recent study showed improvement in cerebral and clinical symptoms on supplementation of omega-3 essential fatty acids over a 12-week period in patients with chronic fatigue syndrome.

Studies involving essential fatty acids in patients with post-viral fatigue syndrome also showed great improvement in symptoms. Essential fatty acids help the body resist viral infections and have been shown as immune modulators in chronic fatigue syndrome.
