Guest guest Posted February 15, 2007 Report Share Posted February 15, 2007 http://www.drweil.com/drw/u/id/WBL02023 Botanicals Fight Chronic Fatigue Chronic fatigue is a common complaint in examination rooms worldwide. Causes are tough to tease apart: stress, depression, lack of exercise, poor diet and existing medical conditions such as Parkinson’s disease, cancers, multiple sclerosis and more can all contribute to it. But while causes can remain mysterious, several treatments do offer hope. An article in the February, 2006 issue of Phytother Res. reviews laboratory, animal and human studies of several energizing botanicals. Some highlights: Eleuthero (Eleutherococcus senticosus) showed moderate benefit in people with chronic fatigue syndrome. Hawthorne-berry (Crataegus oxyacantha) extract improved exercise tolerance and quality of life in people with congestive heart failure. Pycnogenol® (a proprietary extract of Pinus pinaster) has been shown to alleviate fatigue, body ache and anxiety. Ashwaganda (Withania somnifera) boosted swimming endurance in mice. For more safe, natural remedies that fight chronic fatigue and boost energy, look here."Get off your ass and take your government back." ~Rocky Ward 8:00? 8:25? 8:40?
