Hey Guys,
Just wanted to say hello (have posted in the right forum) and let people know my background as it may help them!
I used to be very active (natural bodybuilding/powerlifting) and a gym supervisor by trade, yet CFS hit over a year ago and have not been able to work out properly since. I also studied nutrition at university before I got ill so I am hugely into the diet/supps side of things.
I am working with the OHC and am on the mitochondria package...but to be honest can say it hasnt really done much atm. I had a mito test done and it was textbook results-low atp/recycling, low carnitine (i never ate read meat just white....) and low glutathione.
I have OCD and have suffered from depression in the past and at the time I got ill was under a lot of stress from various angles!
Things that have worked for me are:
-Getting enough sleep-usually 9 hours at least and also going to be at the same time every night (9.30pm....party animal I know).
-Meditation to calm my racing mind.
-Green juicing and probiotics. Actually made me sleep better it would seem.....possibly the magnesium, I am not sure.
Anyway will keep you posted. Hope I can help maybe and I wlecome ANY advice!
Ben
