FIBROMYALGIA Natural Cures

Fibromyalgia is a chronic neuropathic pain condition. Below we see natural cures for treating fibromyalgia, its causes and current medical

treatments.

It’s present in 2-8% of the population. It affects more women than men and often coexists with sleep problems and fatigue. In fibromyalgia

ther’s a lowered pain threshold due to a deficit of pain defense systems. There is no poor ability to tolerate pain: in fact, who suffer from it are

sometimes accused of this. Subjects feel that the whole body is sore. When the condition is severe they describe this pain as burning or as bites that

run throughout the body.

Pain can increase in a sitting position, and, since any pressure gets worse, ther’s no position that is truly relieving. There are often diarrhea (ambient

temperature is always unpleasant, in particular cold is feared and sometimes there is shivering). The functions of many viscera are perceived as

unwelcome (feeling of bladder fullness, swollen stomach, colitis, feeling of heart “beating faster”, tingling at night in hands and arms). But

such ailments would gradually disappear with a natural remedy for fibromyalgia.

Neuropeptides, such as substance P, stimulate mast cells to secrete inflammatory cytokines and these cause symptoms of fibromyalgia. There is

also a serotonin deficiency. This alteration occurs in both headache and other pains of primary fibromyalgia. Connection between the

aforementioned pathologies lies in the deficit of defense systems against pain. In fact, there is a perception of not very painful stimuli (hyperalgesia)

or not painful ones, such as stress or climatic variations (allodinìa). Current drug therapy uses anticonvulsant, antidepressants, with poor results

and many side effects.

Therefore, natural treatments for fibromyalgia are possible thanks to action of herbal products such as Rhodiola rosea and Vitis vinifera which

have antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and collagen stabilizing properties. There are also natural substances, such as flavoproteins, NAD and

NADP. They contribute in a natural way to restore production of neural transmitters by mast cells. In addition, all substances and aforesaid products

also cause a natural increase in serotonin level and restore mast cell membranes. Hence, a natural cure for fibromyalgia is a possible and

necessary treatment option.
