Could a culprit behind fibro pain be a HIDDEN vitamin deficiency?

You wake up stiff as a board… after a night of tossing and turning that makes you feel more tired than when you went to bed.

And for the rest of the day, it’s all downhill from there.

If you OVEREXTEND yourself with physical activity… you’re down for the count for DAYS afterwards.

But if you take it easy and don’t move around very much… the pain STILL sets in…

And it DOESN’T let up!

While no two fibromyalgia patients are EXACTLY the same… this could describe a typical day for many of them.

From head-to-toe discomfort… to hypersensitivity to the slightest touch or pressure… it can feel like your body is a ticking TIME BOMB.

You might think that NOTHING can defuse it…

And you may have tried LOTS of different therapies already…

But today, I’d like to share an UNDERGROUND nutritional remedy that’s been helping some fibro patients see daily life in a new light.

Thiamine is another name for one of the B vitamins – specifically, the FIRST one to be identified, vitamin B1.

You might not think about it much… if your levels of it are already PERFECT…

But a thiamine deficiency could cause some MAJOR problems.

Thiamine is CRUCIAL to the function of your nervous system…

And PLUMMETING levels of it have been associated with neurological problems… like delirium and mood issues.

It’s no surprise, then, that fibromyalgia patients are sometimes found to be DEFICIENT in thiamine…and supplementing with it could help them feel better.

It’s not just when it comes to neuropathic pain (which is what conventional docs will try to treat with Rx “nerve blocking” drugs).

Because fibromyalgia is associated with no less than 7 different types of pain…

As well as LOW mood… which I mentioned earlier is a sign of low thiamine…

And DEVASTATING fatigue.

In one groundbreaking study out of Italy, fibromyalgia patients who supplemented with high doses of thiamine (1500 to 1800 mg daily) experienced RELIEF from the severity of both their pain and fatigue.

At those high doses, the results were almost IMMEDIATE.

In addition to addressing possible nerve-related root causes of fibromyalgia, thiamine also helps BALANCE neurotransmitters involved in both pain management and sleep quality…

And it helps ENERGIZE mitochondria, too.

To convert thiamine into a form your body can actually USE… it needs yet another nutrient that acts as a “co-factor.”

Magnesium!

This miracle mineral has also been shown on its own to help ease fibromyalgia symptoms… especially muscle pain.

And it’s another nutrient that fibro patients might have drawn the short stick on.

However, there’s also a more bioavailable version of thiamine you can look for at your local health food store or online… called benfotiamine.

It’s fat-soluble… meaning it doesn’t dissolve in water… so you’ll need to take it with food.

Check with your doc before consuming mega-doses of ANY nutrient…

But especially because thiamine may lower your blood pressure… so proceed with caution and beware of drug interactions.
