Magnesium Can Be A Missing Element In CFS

http://www.chronicillnet.org/CFS/Ostrom/chp15.html

 

Magnesium is a trace element that is necessary for the activities of many

enzymes; serious deficiency can cause vascular problems, convulsions, tremors,

depression, and psychotic behavior. In 1990, a British research team discovered

that not only did CFS patients have a deficiency of magnesium in their red

blood cells, but that magnesium injections actually helped some symptoms to

improve.

 

In the British study, 35 CFS patients were divided into two groups. One group

received a magnesium injection once a week for six weeks; the other group

received a placebo injection (in this case, sterile water) once a week for six

weeks.

 

At the end of the study, the patients who were treated with magnesium had

much greater improvement in energy, pain, and emotional reactions than the

placebo group did.

 

The British investigators concluded that, while magnesium may not be a cure

for CFS, it could prove to be helpful in treating some symptoms of the

syndrome.

There is no need to take hours off to define terms, unless you have a

super s l o w computer:)I just put in in Google and it was the first

definition: Chronic fatigue syndrome is CFS
