Featured ArticleEating to Lessen Chronic Fatigue
The effects of chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) can range from minor nuisances such as headache, muscle aches, joint pain and sore throat to major inconveniences such as debilitating fatigue and impaired memory. While there is no definitive cure for CFS, you can help manage symptoms through dietary changes. If you have been diagnosed with CFS, try the following:
- Decrease your protein intake to 10 percent of your daily calories.
- Eat a wide variety of fresh fruits and vegetables (preferably organic) for their protective phytochemicals.
- Eat garlic regularly for its antibiotic effects.
- Incorporate immune-enhancing mushrooms (including shiitake, oyster, enokidake and maitake mushrooms) into meals daily.
