The Truth about Magnesium
Fibro-Care™, A Science Based Approach to Fibromyalgia Symptom Relief
Fibromyalgia is a chronic widespread pain condition. It presents as a complex array of symptoms, including muscle and nerve dysfunction, fatigue, and sleep disturbances. Addressing these complex challenges requires a targeted approach. Fibro-Care™, with its unique blend of highly bioavailable ingredients, offers a promising solution based on scientific research and expert insights.
Enhancing Muscle and Nerve Function - Muscle pain, spasms, and nerve-related discomfort are common symptoms among fibromyalgia patients. Fibro-Care™ is specifically formulated to support optimal muscle and nerve function. Dr. Mildred Seelig, a leading expert on magnesium and author of "The Magnesium Factor," explains the mineral's critical role in these symptoms "Magnesium is essential for numerous physiological processes, including muscle contraction and relaxation, nerve transmission, and neuromuscular conduction." ¹
Research supports the link between magnesium deficiency and muscle abnormalities. A study published in the Journal of Internal Medicine found that magnesium supplementation improved muscle function and reduced pain in patients with fibromyalgia.²
Boosting Energy Production - Fatigue is a pervasive symptom in fibromyalgia, often impacting daily life significantly. Fibro-Care™ tackles this challenge by incorporating nutrients crucial for cellular energy production. Dr. Thomas Levy, a renowned physician and author of "Magnesium: Reversing Disease," emphasizes the importance of magnesium in energy metabolism: "Magnesium is a critical cofactor in hundreds of enzymatic reactions in the body, many of which are involved in energy production."³ Malic acid, another key ingredient in Fibro-Care™, plays a vital role in the Krebs cycle, a central metabolic pathway for energy generation.
Decreasing Pain Levels - Chronic pain is a hallmark of fibromyalgia, and Fibro-Care™ aims to modulate pain perception through multiple mechanisms. Magnesium, with its calming effect on the nervous system, can help reduce pain signals. Additionally, malic acid may contribute to pain relief by improving mitochondrial function and reducing inflammation.
Dr. Pellegrino, a fibromyalgia specialist and author of "Fibromyalgia, Up Close and Personal," recognizes the role of nutritional deficiencies in exacerbating pain: "Addressing potential nutritional deficiencies...including magnesium, can be an important part of fibromyalgia management."⁵
Maximizing Bioavailability- Fibro-Care™ is formulated with Albion® chelated minerals, well-known for their superior bioavailability. This ensures that the body can effectively absorb and utilize the nutrients, maximizing their therapeutic potential. Dr. Levy highlights the importance of bioavailability: "The effectiveness of any nutrient, including magnesium, is dependent on its absorption and utilization by the body."³
Conclusion- Fibro-Care™, with its scientifically based formulation and focus on bioavailability, offers a non-drug approach to managing the complex symptoms of fibromyalgia. By supporting muscle and nerve function, enhancing energy production and reducing pain levels, Fibro-Care™ aims to improve the overall quality of life for those living with this challenging condition.
