The Life Extension Foundation’s approach to fibromyalgia takes into account the many facets of the disease. The following supplements have been shown to reduce oxidative stress and inflammation, support healthy ATP levels in cells, aid in restful sleep and digestion, and support muscle function:
Life Extension Mix—Follow label directions. Life Extension Mix provides a balanced mix of antioxidants and other nutrients.
Magnesium—160 to 500 milligrams (mg) daily
Malic acid—600 mg daily
Vitamin B6—250 mg daily. High doses of vitamin B6 can cause neuropathy (nerve damage).
Vitamin C—1000 to 2000 mg daily
Selenium—200 micrograms (mcg) daily
SODzyme—2000 mg daily. This special supplement enhances the levels of superoxide dismutase, an internal antioxidant.
D-Ribose—3 grams (g) daily
Gamma E—at least 200 mg daily
Omega-3 fatty acids—1400 mg of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and 1000 mg of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)
Blueberry extract—500 mg daily
Melatonin—300 mcg to 6 mg daily
DHEA—Starting dose of 15 to 75 mg daily. Have blood tested in 3 to 6 weeks to make sure optimal levels are maintained.
Below is Life Extension's 'protocol' on fibromyalgia.
Good Luck!!
