  2. Most pain can be effectively treated by going after the root causes (see a short video).
  3. We’ll show you how to get solid pain relief (see a short video).

Vitamin D Is Low in Fibromyalgia - Supplementation May Help

Vitamin D Deficiency

In a new study, 70% of people with fibromyalgia had low vitamin D levels, whereas only 13% of healthy people did. Since severe illness can cause vitamin D levels to drop, while not necessarily reflecting vitamin D deficiency, it is especially important to assume the deficiency is present and treat for it to see if the vitamin D helps.

All of the fibromyalgia patients were treated with Lyrica, tricyclic antidepressants, and high-dose vitamin D. Pain scores decreased by 51% in the vitamin D deficient group and 35% in the vitamin D groups that had normal levels. This strongly suggests that vitamin D may be helpful when treating severe illness.
