I’ve been showing all of the symptoms of chronic fatigue syndromes for around 5 years and I was a very healthy child for the most part before this. The only major illness I had was when I was born I had beta strep and almost died from it. The doctors told my parents that it could effect me some time later in life in some way or it may never effect me again. I was wondering if there was any type of correlation between these two things?

I don’t believe anyone has come up with a definitive reason for chronic fatigue syndrome although there are a lot of theories about what causes it. Your theory sounds as plausible as any.

I’ve heard that these are "miracle" products that can boost your energy and even make pregnant women have no morning sickness. How do you take it? And where can I get it?
By the way, I’m not pregnant. It was just something that I read and was curious about. Thanks for all the great answers so far!

Bee pollen is great for energy. It is a much better source of protein than whey and has more protien pound for pound than a steak. It has complex carbs to feed your muscles and add energy. Plus it is very high in B vitamins that are needed by your body to make energy. It has also been shown to be a libido enhancer for men. It could be because the pollen is collected from the "male" part of the plants.

Royal jelly has the highest natural source of vitamin B5 and biotin. These B vitamins are responsible for healthy skin. hair and nails. It has collagen to help repair cartillage damage. It has RNA and DNA the "precursers to life". It has been shown to naturally increase hormone levels in both men and women.

You should read the book written by Dr.Cass Ingram called "The Longevity Solutiuon". It has a lot of information in it. As for calling them "miracle" products, I don’t know about that, but they are probably the best natural product, because they are so packed full of vitamins and mineral. You would be hard pressed to find another food that has as many nutrients.

If you are considering royal jelly or bee pollen? I would recommend getting it fresh and not freeze dried. My personal observation has been that the freeze dried does not seem to be as affective as the fresh liquid royal jelly and unprocessed bee pollen. The best place to find it is at beeroyalproducts.com.

To take fresh royal jelly, you eat a spoonful (bee royal sends a spoon that is the proper serving size) in the monrning on an empty stomach. It is very bitter so drink a little orange juice and the taste will immediatley go away. DO NOT drink or eat anything hot for 20 minutes after taking it.

Bee pollen can be taken by a teaspoon (start out in smaller doses because some people get an upset stomach because they are not used to the high ammounts of nutrients and need to become acclimated to it). You can sprinkle it on cereal or mix it in your favorite smoothie.

I hope I helped. There is so much more information I could give but then the post would be to long.

Sorry about the spelling but the spell check is not working.

Ive very tired, fatigued, and malaised for about 2 months now, what could be the cuase of this? could it be mono or something?

Those are classic symptoms for an under active thyroid condition.

specially when I’m exercising , I’ve been exercising for 6 years and never felt that way b4 , I used to run for 1 hr , now its hard for me to run for 30 min , always feeling heavy , sleepy , and tired as if I’m taking cold and flu pills. I’ve purchsed vitamins to combat fatigue and to restore physical effeciency and its my first day today, my friend also told me to try driking Gatorade with the workout but I dont want to do that cuz it has lots of calories and im on 1200 cal diet. I cant break my diet. any Advice?

Hi.
Although the information you have given is incomplete I am sure you are overtrained which is a serious condition!!
http://www.physsportsmed.com/issues/2001/05_01/uusitalo.htm
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overtraining
What you need to do is take a 2-3 week off with NO TRAINING at all!! Increase your intake of calories.
Does a car run without any fuel? The same applies to you. If you restrict your intake of calories for too long you won´t be getting the nutrients you need, your metabolism will slow down (which will make it easier for you to get fat prompting you to further reduce your caloric intake). You need to get your metabolism up by eating normally for a few weeks. Just increase your consumption slowly over the course of 5-10 days or so. Then you need to eat enough to maintain weight for some time and give your body time to recover. This will take some time, pending on how long you have been overtraining and how long you haven´t eaten enough.
You are going about this the wrong way!! Read well the articles I showed you and then rethink your strategy.
Good luck!!

I usually wake up around 6:35.. I am 17, when i get home from school i am extremely tired and usually fall asleep for 2-3 hours. This causes me to not be tired until around 12:00 when I go to sleep for the night. How come I am always tired after school even when I do get a good nights sleep?

because … school is tiring!

My wife was recently diagnosed with Epstein-Barr virus. this virus causes mononucleosis, chronic fatigue and even spleen rupture. I can find support groups for her, but I can’t find one to help me take care of her. any suggestions?

Contact Chronic Fatigue and Immune Dysfunction Syndrome Association of America. Please see their website given below.

im currently working 10 hour shifts mon-fir and 8 hours on saturdays. i stay active at work. i am a machinist and im on my feet all day. when i get home im soo tired and i get nothing done cause of all the hours. after the holidays i tried cutting back on caffine and energy drinks and all i would do is sleep then. what are safe ways i can boost my energy without going back to the mountain dew and energy drinks?

I work from 5am to 5pm 5 days a week and sometimes on weekends, occasionally being assigned a 24hr shift here and there.

I try to geta 5 mile run in 3 times a week to keep the cardio up, and force good sleep habits to establish hours of wake and rest. It makes it easier to stay awake and have energy at certain points in the day, and settle for bed at the right moments.

So, it boils down to 3 things
1 Sleep
2 Diet
3 Exercise

(Or you can do what I did for 3 years of Graveyard shift, guzzle a 2 liter of Dr. Pepper a night).

can it happen at only 2 weeks pregnant?

Most women don’t even know that they are pregnant at 2 weeks. But to answer your question, tiredness can come at any stage of pregnancy, every woman and her body is different while carrying a child. So some women may experience it the whole 9 months while others may experience it only in the 3rd trimester.
