I was asked to write a brief news release on RF and fibromyalgia for a magazine for health practitioners. Below is the body of the text. The website referenced is not yet complete. Thought I'd share it on the chance that someone might find it helpful.

New Help For Fibromyalgia Sufferers
Much research has been done on this debilitating condition and nutritional protocols have been developed which have yielded a measure of success. The protocols are designed to address recognized contributors to the syndrome including deficiencies in the syntheses of adenosine triphosphate leading to a slowing of the Krebs cycle and the build-up of lactic acid, changes in manganese-dependent neuroendocrine changes which lead to secondary hypothyroidism, and impaired respiration.
A clue to the missing link in recovery is found in the events and conditions contributing to the onset of fibromyalgia. It has long been recognized that certain events trigger the condition, including viral illness, auto accidents, traumatic emotional experiences, or major stress and depression.
The common result of these triggers is the depression of the immune system and overall immune function. Adding Transfer Factor, a powerful immune system booster and modulator, to the existing protocols has led to increased success in treatment and patient recovery. 4Life Research™, the manufacturer of Transfer Factor, has combined the traditional nutrients used to treat fibromyalgia with Transfer Factors in their three-stage FibroFree™ system.
