Treatments for Fibromyalgia
Because of the
range of options about fibromyalgia's cause and therapy, a wise approach is two months of natural therapies including sleep, daily walking, and supplements that are naturally in our body, says Dr. Oz. You can try magnesium (400 mg), malic acid (1200 mg), and ribose (one teaspoon or 5gms three times daily); since the ribose is sweet without significant calories, use this in place of sugar to get your daily dose. If this approach is ineffective, a more stringent regimen with drug therapy or alternative approaches should be entertained.
