Chronic fatigue…widespread pain…depression…headaches… They’re all symptoms of chronic pain conditions including the most common – fibromyalgia.
If you have these symptoms, be prepared to go through the ringer trying to find relief.
You’ll get misdiagnosed and misunderstood while doctors try to treat various symptoms. In fact, if you say you’re exhausted or have non-specific pain, they’re likely to put you on antidepressants, steroids, or sleeping pills. Sometimes all three!
Not to worry. If you suffer from chronic pain and fatigue, we’ve found a compound that not only treats the core issue but works fast to give you an energy boost and pain relief.
You don’t even have to suffer fibromyalgia or a chronic pain condition to benefit. And it starts working in just 12 days.
| Along with taking ribose you can control pain and get relief with lifestyle changes. Meditation and deep breathing can help ease stress and anxiety. Working out, although painful at first, can help decrease symptoms in the long run. If you don’t use your muscles you’ll lose them. Swimming and water aerobics are great options. Working out in the water is not as hard on your body and you still work all your muscles and reap the benefits. |
This fuel keeps your cells running so you have more energy and less pain…
Ribose is a naturally occurring simple sugar in the body. It’s the fuel that powers ATP (adenosine triphosphate) in your cells. ATP stores and releases energy. The more ATP you have, the more energy reserves you have to function.
But ATP stores can get depleted by exercise, an illness, or if you’re under a lot of stress.
A study out of Texas tested ribose on patients with either fibromyalgia or chronic fatigue. After just 12 days patients had more energy, slept better, and had less pain. At the end of the study 66 percent of patients had significant improvement. Their “brain fog” lifted and they reported a 30 percent improvement in their overall well-being.
Even though the body naturally produces ribose, hardworking tissues such as the heart and muscles often use all the energy created. If your cells don’t have enough ribose, they can’t produce enough ATP to meet energy demands. The lack of energy then worsens chronic conditions like fibromyalgia and fatigue. It can even cause heart failure and artery disease.
There is no such thing as a ribose deficiency. But if your body is constantly dragging then it is using more energy than it has stored.
But here’s where it gets tricky…Ribose isn’t like regular sugars. It isn’t in foods. Your body has to produce it. So if you can’t produce enough to keep you energized, you can supplement.
Ribose supplements come in either capsule or powder form. Because it’s a sugar, it’s absorbed very quickly. You can mix the powder in water, tea, or any liquid. Or just simply sprinkle the powder on your food for energy.
Fibromyalgia and chronic pain conditions can be debilitating. Ribose could be the fuel that helps you get out of the bed in the morning with less pain, more energy, and a better mood.
