Supplements for Fibromyalgia

Acetyl-L Carnitine supplements may help increase your levels of carnitine, a substance that plays an important role in cellular energy production. What carnitine basically does is shuttle long-chain fatty acids into mitochondria, the tiny structures in all cells where energy is produced from burning macronutrients.  Carnitine also helps move out toxic byproducts from cells to prevent accumulation.

CoEnzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is an enzyme involved in cellular energy production.   It is also a powerful anti-oxidant.  Levels of CoQ10 are low in people with chronic disease.  Promising uses of CoQ10 include eye disease, chest pain caused by exercise, asthma, chronic fatigue, and high cholesterol, as well as the treatment of chemotherapy side effects in children.  It is worth trying for those experiencing fibromyalgia/chronic fatigue syndrome.
