Synopsis

Are you suffering from M.E.? Are you caring for someone with M.E.? Does someone close to you have M.E.? Whoever the sufferer, young or old, man or woman, he or she is highly likely to have been told the condition is 'psychosomatic' ( all in the mind ), depression is the root cause, and antidepressants the only sensible answer. In Professor Basant Puri's ground-breaking new book you will discover a very different way of looking at M.E. Historical and contemporary evidence are combined to show how M.E. is almost certainly a physical, or 'organic', condition resulting from viral and other influences that reduce essential chemicals in the body. As such, it can be treated, and in a natural, cost-effective way. Read how and why EPA ('eicosapentaenoic acid') will be essential to recovery, how to take it, what supplements to have with it, and how to change to a lifestyle that will promote recovery. Contents 1.A breakthrough 2.What is chronic fatigue syndrome? 3. All in the mind? 4. How and why fatty acids can help 5. How to take fatty acids 6.The vitamin and mineral cofactors 7.
