Fibromyalgia

Wellness solutions for those who may experience this symptom,
based on research and personal experiences...

This article contains information on this common ailment and
suggestions, for those who may experience symptoms, based on
research and personal experiences. This information is for
educational purposes only and does not constitute claims made
for any product or a diagnosis for any ailment.
_______________

Cause...
Fibromyalgia is characterized by widespread muscle pain and
fatigue. The cause is unknown, but thought by some to be due to
low levels of serotonin which may produce muscle pain. Others
suggest it may be caused by extremely high levels of substance
P, believed to transmit pain messages from the body to the
brain.

What May Help: Watkins Linimax™
Why
Contains glucosamine, boswellia, curcumin and whole grape
extract(a source of grapeseed extract) and ginger. Many
fibromyalgia sufferers have found Linimax to be very helpful in
relieving pain and have been able to resume normal daily
functions as a result. Boswellia and curcumin help to reduce
the pain associated with inflammation. Glucosamine protects
from further damage and helps to repair damage. Ginger provides
an analgesic effect.

What May Help: Watkins Mood Plus(Balance Plus)
Why...
Contains St. John's Wort which helps to raise serotonin levels,
which, in turn, helps to improve pain tolerance and improve
mood and emotions. This should not be taken along with anti-
depressants. Talk to your physician if you are on anti-
depressants. The doctor may prescribe a lower dose of
antidepressants while starting Mood Plus(Balance Plus) and
keep lowering the dose until you can just take Mood Plus. Also
contains rhodiola rosea root which helps to increase energy in
those who are exhausted and fatigued. Helps to improve sleep.
If having trouble sleeping, take two tablets 30 to 60 minutes
before bedtime.

What May Help: Watkins E+CoQ10
Why...
CoQ10 helps to relieve the symptoms of chronic fatigue syndrome,
which often accompanies fibromyalgia. Vitamin E, selenium and
hawthorn, found in Watkins E+CoQ10 help to improve circulation
and protect from further damage.

What May Help: Watkins Superfood Multiple(Super Multi) and
Female Formula
Why...
Both contain magnesium and vitamin C which are important for
people with fibromyalgia. Many people with fibromyalgia are
deficient in magnesium. Magnesium is important for energy and
muscle relaxation. Vitamin C with bioflavonoids help to protect
muscle cells from damage, which is what leads to pain and other
symptoms. Also increases the immune system.

Antioxidant formula: The antioxidant vitamins C, E, beta
carotene and selenium help fight the damage that leads to
inflammation. Watkins Superfood Multiple, Female Formula and E+
CoQ10 contain optimum levels of these antioxidants.

What May Help: Watkins Inner Cleanse/Restore(Internal Spa),
Rezist Plus and Aloe Vera Juice
Why...
Candida(yeast) infection is common among fibromyalgia
sufferers. Inner Cleanse/Restore(Internal Spa) and Rezist Plus
contain pre and probiotics which help to rid the body of "bad"
bacteria and replace it with "good' bacteria. The "good"
bacteria helps to keep the "bad" bacteria out of the body. Use
Inner Cleanse/Restore(Internal Spa) first to cleanse the body,
get rid of toxins and allow the good bacteria to overtake the
bad. Then use Rezist Plus on a daily basis to maintain a high
level of good bacteria in the body and to help keep harmful
toxins and bad bacteria out. Aloe Vera Juice promotes digestion
and normal bowel activity.

What May Help: Watkins Fruit/Veggie Complex(Watkins Harvest)
Why...
Contains fruit enzymes, vitamin C and mixed carotenoids which
protect the body from damage that can lead to pain.

What May Help: Watkins Balanced Ginseng
Why...
Useful for combating stress and fatigue which often accompanies
fibromyalgia.

What May Help: Watkins Liniment and Analgesic Balm
Why...
Contain capsicum(red pepper) that produces a warming effect on
the skin. Liniment provides relief from the discomfort of minor
muscle pain, soreness, stiffness and backache. Analgesic Balm
provides quick, temporary relief from minor arthritic and
rheumatic aches.

Consult your physician before taking any dietary supplements.

"I have fibromyalgia, and since using Watkins Linimax™, it has
helped me function almost normally again. It has reduced my
muscle pain, fatigue and the flair ups don't come as often. I
don't plan on ever living without Linimax™."
—Rebecca Metcalf, Michigan

"My daughter and I have both had great results from using
Watkins Linimax™: My rheumatologist stopped the NSAIDs, as the
results from using Linimax™ were much better and my daughter
was told by a new neurologist that she had the beginning of
Fibromyalgia and to take "Linimax™." This doctor had no idea I
was a Watkins Associate, but I guess news travels fast when
something really works."
—Charlene Forde, Minnesota

"I've had fibromyalgia for several years and lived with
constant pain and had not been able to have a good night's
sleep because of the pain. Since taking Watkins Linimax™, I am
finally able to sleep and I don't hurt nearly as much. With the
help of Linimax, I am also able to hold down a full time job,
which many fibromyalgia sufferers are unable to do because of
the pain. I've introduced Linimax to several others and they
are all just as satisfied as I am with Watkins Linimax™."
—Joyce Ludwig, Minnesota

"Having suffered from fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome
for over a decade, I have spent thousands of dollars looking
for answers, but did not find any relief until I began taking
Watkins Dietary Supplements. My daily supplement regimen
includes Watkins Linimax™ for the pain, Rezist Plus for my
immune system, Aloe Vera Juice for digestion, Garlic Oil
Softgels and E+CoQ10 for my heart and Superfood Multiple
(Super Multi) and Fruit/Veggie Complex(Watkins Harvest) to
maintain overall health. Before I started taking Watkins
Dietary Supplements, I could hardly get through the day. Now,
although I still have many difficult days, I am able to
tolerate the pain and can function better than I ever have
since being diagnosed with fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue.
Watkins Dietary Supplements are truly a lifesaver for me!"
—Cheryl Young, British Columbia
