NT Factor and D-Ribose for Chronic Fatigue , Fibromyalgia , Myalgic Encephaloyelitis , ME

Recent research has shown clearly that CFS causes a breakdown of the mitochondrial system, thereby reducing ATP production. ATP is where all the body's energy is generated. The biochemistry of CFS and it's affect on the cell is a little heady to me, but I get the basics. It can be summed up in one phrase: oxidative molecular stress. My teenyweeny mitochondria are as fatigued as I am! Poor little things.

At this point, I can imagine my tiny mitochondria, the whole millions or billions of them, each with David Hedison's Face (The Fly), crying out in unison: "helllllpppp meeeee" .

Current research on this topic suggests that various therapies can be directed toward improving mitochondrial function and health. One of the most promising is NT Factor - a proprietary blend of Lipid Replacement. Recent studies have shown a reduction of fatigue in CFS patients up to 40%. Some may consider it a 'higher priced' supplement - taken as directed, about $50 bucks a month. But! I've only been taking this supplement for four days and I notice immediate cognitive improvement, lessened body aches, and a degree of diminished fatigue. I'm so Amazed!

Although these studies show that NT Factor can indeed improve mitochondrial function and lessen fatigue, it is not the only answer to CFS. My research continues, but I now have more energy and for the first time in years upon years, I have hope.

Update 12/16/07: I've now been taking both NT Factor and dRibose for about 80 days. I've gone from not being able to stand for more than two minutes, to being able to take walks for fun - yes I said the fun word! If you're anything like I was just 90 days ago, you know this is a miracle. Yes, this is a marketing page, and I'm linking to these products for a nominal commission. BUT! This isn't about money or marketing - I made this page to get the word out that you CAN feel better and then give you sources to find these supplements. Feel free to ask your Health Food Store to supply them, or you can search for them through Google too. But they DO work for me, and I'm not gonna stop shouting about it... I feel better! Yay! I was a zombie, now I"m waking up after 17 years.

Update 3/18/08: I'm feeling better still. The clinicalstudies on these nutritionsupplements state an improvement of 40% or so - for me this is true. I hiked last week for 2.5 miles! me! My diet hasn't been as good and in April I will be back to a complete cleansing regimine. I'll keep you posted, work on my diet and keep exercising! Feel free to contact me above too.

June 2, 2008: I just got back from a vacation in florida! The latest bottles of NTFactorPills say take (9) for SevereFatigue - Wholly Crackamoni! What a difference it made for me! I've been swimming, hiking, standing effortlessly while I talk (well, for 5 minutes anyway) - I truly can't believe it... If this keeps up I'll be able to go back to work! It's a miracle that makes me cry...

January 14, 2009: I fell off the sugar wagon again over christmas. I'm planning a trip to Yellowstone Park in July and I have to get working again on my diet and exercise. I feel good enough to consider joining the YMCA to start swimming again - my favorite activity in the world. Otherwise, I'm holding steady, still calling myself 50% cured.

D-Ribose, a dietary sugar and ATP component, can aid greatly in improvement of your fatigue symptoms. For CFS/Fibromyalgia patients, studies show that there is an average increase in energy of 45%, with a 30% increase in general sense of well-being. While no current studies show a direct correlation to D-Ribose improving ATP production, it seems that might well be the case. What I notice most with this powder, is that it relieves my muscle pain!
