Re: Re:Glucose & CORvalen anyone using this ?

The corvalen site prescribes 10 GRAMS per day- so you wouldn't expect 15 mg to

do anything.

Re: CORvalen anyone using this ?

Yeap it is ribose - i find glucose works better for me than ribose -

i put some in the saline recuperat-ion as blasi sometimes says this

works well for some and it does work well for me.

Also found this :- Can a simple sugar provide relief for the millions

of patients afflicted with the diagnosis of fibromyalgia and/or

chronic fatigue?

That's what Teitelbaum, MD, and Valen Labs wanted to determine

with an open label, 41-patient feasibility study, the results of which

are now being released.

The study had two endpoints: assessing the level of relief in symptoms

of fatigue and pain; and determining changes in patient quality of life.

The patients in the study had an average age of 48 years and were

78-percent female, which is in keeping with the general population as

fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome affect twice as many women

as men and typically first appears at middle age.

At the start of the study the patients completed a 10-point quality of

life visual analog scale and then took five grams of CORvalenTM

D-ribose orally, three times a day, for an average of 28 days.

After the 28-day treatment period the QOL questionnaire was repeated,

and 69-percent of the 36 patients who completed the course of

CORvalenTM treatment had significant improvement in their symptoms.

They also averaged a 25-percent improvement in the QOL scale.

" What this did was verify what we already knew about the impact of

ribose on energy recovery in muscles generally, " says

Teitelbaum, MD, Medical Director of the Center for Effective

CFS/Fibromyalgia Therapies in polis, land. " But specifically

we determined the energy building benefit of ribose directly improved

the debilitating symptoms of these conditions. I think this study, and

follow on studies now in development, will make ribose one of the most

important new nutrients studies in the next few years. "

Any bit of good news on the relief front - from ribose or otherwise -

will certainly be welcome by the over two million Americans who suffer

from widespread pain, sleep disturbances, fatigue, reduced exercise

tolerance, irritable bowel syndrome, anxiety, depression, headaches

and other symptoms of fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome.

" Despite the fact chronic pain syndrome with fibromyalgia-like

symptoms have been described in medical literature for over 200 years,

we still don't know the exact cause, " states Clarence , CEO of

Bioenergy and Valen Labs. " We do know however that people with

fibromyalgia have lower levels of the energy molecule called adenosine

triphosphate (ATP) and a reduced capacity to make ATP in their

muscles. We know from previous studies ribose can fuel ATP synthesis

and are gratified to see this latest piece of science showing ribose

supplementation can reduce muscle pain and enhance quality of life for

those suffering with fibromyalgia and/or chronic fatigue. "

I have just re-checked the amount of D-ribose I took daily and it was 15grams

not 15mgs (which I mistakenly put in my last email) but having said that it

still didn't benefit me. Which I hoped it would as I invested quite a bit of

money buying it and hoped that as I had been helped by other supplements

relating to ATP e.g. NADH (ENADA) that I would find further improvements. I am

sure that some patients will. Adam

Thanks for your comments. With recup the balance of salts make all the

difference. If you are still benefiting from this and able to add glucose powder

with further benefits I think this is something worth trying. Thanks again. Adam

Re:Glucose & CORvalen anyone using this ?

I also took a whole box of ribose ( bought from a bodybuilding place) over

some months

as advise by a Dr Myhill it did nothing for me whatsoever no change .

When using the ( alfred blasi protocol )recuperat-ion saline base version in

juice I was

advise for fatigue to add a little glucose the mixture I played around with

the doseage 1/4

teaspoon or sometimes 1/2 teaspoon and somedays I use 3/4 of a teaspoon it

seems to

help me quite a bit ( more energy less pain less fog doing well really just

with the

recuperat-ion and glucose ). Try experimenting with little amounts of glucose

then work up

to more if you don´t feel any change.

for the day?

for me.
