FM and mono (was re: Kim)

[Guest guest]

FM/CFS can certainly be triggered by mono, which is the classic Epstein-Barr

virus of chronic fatigue. But dozens of other

infections can trigger it too. Lyme for example.

Anyway, in any infection situation, increasing the immune system is just as

important as treating the symptoms. By eliminating the

cause you lose the symptoms. The best immune system increaser is undenatured

whey isolate plus selenium (200 mcg/day). If

you increase the body's glutathione with the the undenatured whey, infection has

a hard time spreading, and is eventually

reduced. By going to a high-protein diet with the whey you will also lose weight

by gaining muscle, which burns fat. More on

glutathione at:

The other thing is that this may be an orthodox crowd, but Kim asked for

alternatives so... I personally know a few people who

eliminated mono (and Lyme) symptoms by using an effective germicide called

colloidal silver. CS is non-toxic, but kills 650

different micro-organisms, so it's broad-spectrum enough to be effective without

knowing exactly what the infection was.

There's a colloidal silver discussion group at:
