My chronic fatigue syndrome recovery story
Firstly, chronic fatigue syndrome recovery can take a while before you find a treatment that works for you. It is a highly debilitating illness that many doctors don’t understand. It is not like normal fatigue or exhaustion. Secondly, tiredness comes on very quickly when you have chronic fatigue, and sometimes it will come on with a sore throat, upper respiratory infections, cold, bronchitis, hepatitis, intestinal bug, food poisoning, mononucleosis, or intense stress. Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is a medical condition, officially recognised since 1994. And some medics refer to it as chronic fatigue immune dysfunction syndrome (CFIDS) FYI, during the time of my chronic fatigue syndrome recovery, I didn’t look so happy, fresh and energetic as I am in this photo. In fact, I was depressed, tired and overweight. But this photo is the result of hard work and never giving up for getting better. There were times that I wished and thought I was going to die. Never give up on your dreams and achievements!
My personal struggle with chronic fatigue and adrenal fatigue
After struggling for some time with thyroid and adrenal fatigue problems, I got to a point where I felt stuck again and was not moving forward with my health. Although my body temperature was back up to normal (37 degrees) and my adrenal glands and thyroid had improved significantly, I still felt exhausted. Please read my thyroid recovery, as it contains much more detail. I started to dig deeper, and it turned out that I had a few infections: Lyme disease, Borreliosis, and Epstein-Barr. I went to the United States for treatment at a detox clinic, which lasted three months. After the detox treatment, I continued to adapt to my health routine. I added ozone treatments and decided to move to a sunny and warmer country to improve my overall health and energy.
Tips and treatments to consider when you have chronic fatigue syndrome
Modern society has slipped so far away from natural living and the life that was designed for us, that it’s making us unhealthy and sick. Every day we’re bombarded with so much misinformation and conflicting advice that most of us have difficulty making our way back to ‘natural’ living. We all know that a nutrient-dense diet is a key to healthy living, but your body needs more than just nutrition to be completely healthy and fully energised.
No single healing solution fits everyone
When it comes to healing, no single solution fits everyone. It’s only through trial and error that we achieve success, so go easy on yourself. Don’t push your body to its limit as this can do more harm than good. In my experience, it’s more important to work on a few small things at a time to become healthier. And remember to listen carefully to your body to understand what it needs.
Chronic fatigue syndrome and the right type of nutrition helps you
To get your head around what you ‘should’ be eating I want you to think back to your ancestors. Thousands of years ago, when factories didn’t exist, and processed food wasn’t around, what did people eat? Back then, they lived off fresh fish, meat, fruit, healthy fats, nuts, seeds and vegetables. It was simple and effective.
Eat food that is right for your body type
It’s also worth bearing in mind that we all have a different chemical composition, and a diet that works for one person doesn’t necessarily work for others. Some people must eliminate dairy to find the right balance for their body. Others eliminate gluten and carbohydrates. Others only eat plants based foods.
Optimising your hormones will help with chronic fatigue syndrome
Work on optimising your hormonal health and work on optimising your Thyroid and Adrenal glands. If you have adrenal burn-out, you might want to consider the CTM3 method, which is a breakthrough of Paul Robinson and helped me heal my adrenal glands again and he literally saved my life! Considering experimenting with Ozone treatments which have been a great help in my recovery. There are also lots of vitamin and minerals that can naturally support your thyroid, hormones and other body functions.
