Dr Oz, who was seen often on the Oprah Show and is a well known television celebrity in his own right, recommends Dr Jacob Teitelbaum's supplement regimen to relieve fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome.
Dr Jacob Teitelbaum's website has a free FMS Symptom Analysis Program to create a natural remedy treatment plan tailored to your specific symptoms.
Dr Teitelbaum has suffered from these conditions himself and has written books and articles about them. He is the lead author of four studies on the effective treatment for fibromyalgia.
Here is the link to Dr Oz's article on Fibromyalgia.
Dr Oz's Recommendation: Because Western medicine was slow to accept fibromyalgia, it is behind in its work; this is an area where patients will want to take a serious look at alternative approaches. Energy-based medicine could offer some important advances in treatment over the next decade, but since it has yet to be tested by independent research, I think it's premature to base your therapy solely on this approach. I'm more impressed by Teitelbaum's supplement regimen, and not only because he has tested his theories: I've put patients on this program with very good results. I would add counseling, as it should always be a part of fibromyalgia treatment. If after a couple of months you don't see improvement, talk to your doctor about drug therapy.
Do you personally take supplements for your fibromyalgia that you feel really give you some benefit? I would love to hear about your experience with supplements.
