Treating Low Blood Volume and Decreased Heart Function in CFS

Dear Readers,

In this newsletter we will discuss a critical but usually overlooked

part of treating CFS and fibromyalgia effectively. It can be relatively

easy to treat, but is not very glamorous, and is therefore often

forgotten. We will focus on new research by Dr. Barry Hurwitz and a team

of University of Miami researchers, including Dr. Klimas, who is

wonderful and one of my favorite people in the CFS community (though I

sometimes disagree with her, I've always had enormous appreciation and

respect for her).

Their recent study shows that patients with CFS have:

1. A lower blood volume (basically are dehydrated),

2. Fewer red blood cells to carry oxygen and nutrients (basically

anemia, despite normal blood tests).

The study also discusses that although the heart may be smaller in CFS

and beats less efficiently, this is likely caused by the dehydration and

low blood volume, as opposed to primarily being a heart problem.

The good news is that all of these issues can be effectively treated and

optimized naturally -- which can leave you feeling much better!
