Help Chronic Fatigue Syndrome by Improving Cellular Environment

When you have Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS)  your fatigue is more than just fatigue, the lack of energy rules your life.  You still feel exhausted after resting, and minimal physical activity or stress can aggravate the problem, creating a fibro flare. The symptoms of CFS include widespread muscle and joint pain,  mental and physical exhaustion, digestive problems, headaches, recurring sore throat and  swollen lymph nodes. These symptoms are also signs of an imbalance occurring in your body that has created a harsh cellular environment that is damaging your cells and your overall health. You are a cellular being and your health problems occur because the cells in a particular area of your body are being damaged. In CSF the cells that make up your blood, skin, muscles, nerves and brain have become compromised and overly acidic from inadequate circulation.


Chronic fatigue syndrome is known around much of the world as myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME) or Chronic Fatigue Immune Deficiency Syndrome. Myalgic means muscle pain or tenderness, encephalomyelitis means inflammation of the brain and spinal cord. Another current name is Post-Viral Fatigue Syndrome (PVFS), the chronic fatigue arises after having a flu-like illness following a viral infection. Some people experience fatigue and related symptoms for months or years following a severe viral or bacterial infection which can congest their body with excess dead cell material. There are no known causes of CSF but there are numerous theories as to what is contributing to chronic fatigue from stress, toxins, oxidative stress, low cardiac output or inflexible blood cells.


In an article written by Maryann Spurgin, Ph.D., Dr. L.O. Simpson a New Zealand researcher has theorized that myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME), also known as Chronic Fatigue Immune Deficiency Syndrome (CFIDS), results from "insufficient oxygen availability due to impaired capillary blood flow." The impaired blood flow was attributed to smaller than usual capillaries and to the presence of abnormal red blood cells which became inflexible.


A healthy red blood cell is shaped like a round cough drop with a thinner center which helps the cell's flexibility. This ability to bend is necessary for the cell to move through the tiny capillary beds, delivering oxygen and nutrients, as well as removing metabolic waste, such as carbon dioxide and lactic acid. If the lymphatic system were to become congested, the inflexible abnormal red blood cells could fill your tissues creating excess acid waste that can cause pain and constrict capillary vessels, limiting blood flow and the removal of dead cell material.

The biggest contributing factor in CSF that you can gain control over is compromised circulation and the buildup of acidic waste, which leads to inflammation in your body. A more alkaline diet,  and self-activating your lymphatic system, can  help to improve circulation and detoxification of cellular waste from in and around your cells. This ireduction in cellular wast emproves your cellular environment, reduces pain, promotes energy and improves your health.
