I have been suffering with CFS since I was 14 (I am 27 now) and it just keeps getting worse. I bought the book The Medical Medium by Anthony William and thought it was very interesting. It discusses the "cause" for CFS/ME and natural ways to go about healing yourself. The author focuses a lot on plant based foods, in particular just raw fruits and vegetables, as well as supplements you can take.

Has anyone tried the 28 day diet as described in this book? If not, I am still extremely interested in your thoughts on if you believe these herbs and supplements can help as much as the author says it will?

- Red marine algae: powerful antiviral that removes heavy metals such as mercury and reduces viral load.
- L-lysine: lowers EBV load and acts as a central nervous system anti-inflammatory.
- Spirulina (preferably from Hawaii): rebuilds the central nervous system and eliminates heavy metals.
- Ester-C: strengthens the immune system and flushes EBV toxins from the liver.
- Nettle leaf: provides vital micronutrients to the brain, blood, and central nervous system.
