Get with the Program™
for Fibromyalgia & SEID (ME/Chronic Fatigue)


Take the guesswork out of making important nutritional decisions. Try the Program™.
1 Customize Your Program.
Getting
well is a process. You can restore nutrients over time and improve FM
and ME/CFS (SEID) symptoms the non-drug way! While replacing low
magnesium with Fibro-Care™ is a good start, choose additional nutrients to target individual health needs. See products in Steps 2-12.
2 Evaluate your GI health.
David’s Probiotic Blend™ or David's Probiotics™ and Olive Leaf Extract or ESE™
provide distinct benefits to balance the ‘good’ and ‘bad’ bacteria in
the gut for proper assimilation of nutrients from food. Optimize food
breakdown with Digesta-Care 8™ and Ginger Root as a tummy tonic.
3 Take a multi-vitamin.
Multi-Gold™,
our high potency multiple vitamin and mineral complex, contains Bs and
malic acid for energy and pain, plus patented, organic Albion® chelate minerals for optimum absorption and tolerability. Multi-Gold™ is the foundation of the Program with 37 health building nutrients.
4 Take extra magnesium & malic acid.
Especially if you have pain and low energy. Fibro-Care™ contains a patented, organic magnesium bisglycinate (chelate), plus cofactor nutrients to optimize absorption. Fibro Care™ is the #1 supplement for FM/SEID (ME/CFS) and chronic pain because it works! An Albion® Gold Medallion product.
5 Maximize energy.
CoQ10 is nutrient fuel for mitochondria, your cellular energy makers, and for heart muscle energy too. Fibro-Ubiquinol™
is the more bioavailable CoQ10 form. David’s Fibro-Q10™ matches FM
study dosing. Alpha Lipoic Acid helps metabolize fats and sugars for
energy. Both are antioxidants. Consider B-12.
6 Sleep, Rest & De-Stress.
Valerian Rest™ encourages restful sleep and reduces nighttime wakening. Try David’s 5-HTP SR™ and Melatonin to support the sleep-wake cycle (your ‘body clock’). Calm down over-excited nervous system activity that exacerbates pain with Fibro-GABA™ or Valerian Rest™ which helps soothe nerves during the daytime too.
7 Boost serotonin.
David ’s 5-HTP SR™ is
the building block for serotonin. This neurotransmitter is a natural anti-depressive
agent that helps with REM and NREM sleep, mood, PMS, and decreases pain.
Sustained release form for more gradual dosing.
8 Help for pain.
Consider Curcumin ES™ and Ginger Root to support a healthy inflammatory response to fight pain, arthritis stiffness and aging. Fibro-D3™ supports neuromuscular function and performs a role in pain reduction too.
9 Clear brain fog.
Support neuron communication with “thought provoking” nutrients like Brain Clear ES™ to help “clear the fog”. Another brain helper is Acetyl -L-Carnitine.
10 Add an Omega-3 oil (fish, flax or krill).
The benefits of omega-3 oils for brain cognition, a healthy heart, weight control, and nervous system as well as fighting inflammation are well known.
11 Consider Colostrum.
Studies show serum IGF-1 (growth factor) levels are low in FM and SEID (ME/CFS). Colostrum provides important growth factor nutrients and more than 75% of Dr. Pellegrino’s patients report symptom benefit.
12 Secondary conditions.
Arthritis
and other chronic pain conditions will benefit from joint helpers, bone
builders and natural inflammatory fighters. Try Glucosamine, Chondroitin with MSM and Hyaluronic Acid for joints. Fibro-Care Cal™ gives you the benefits of Fibro-Care™ plus bone builders K, D3, Boron and FOS. UC-II® collagen in David's Collagen ES™ supports connective tissue flexibility to increase joint mobility.
