Chronic Fatigue Syndrome: Nutritional Therapy Guide for a CFS Diet...how to eat yourself healthy again

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00PKR1HMI
Available now:: "Nutritional Therapy Guide for a CFS Diet...how to eat yourself healthy again!"

Well, at long, long last the Volume 2 of the series is online and available at Amazon and Lulu and iTunes! 

I certainly didn't expect it to take 2 years for Warren and myself to complete a book that focuses specifically on the best nutritional requirements to beat CFS, but it did and that's that.

I hope that everyone suffering with this horrendous condition will grab a copy and start to heal their digestive system with cellular nutrition and supplements along with the best possible superfoods.

Yes, it is possible to heal yourself of CFS and eat yourself healthy again, I promise you.  But there is a big learning curve, and you do need to lay the groundwork first in your digestive system for it to be able to correctly absorb and utilize the nutrition you feed it.

Anybody who would like a review copy just needs to contact me and I'll send them one.

Very excited, hoping this book does well, or Amazon doesn't promote them much at all.

Check it out here please:

Some Sensible Tips For A Healthy Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Diet

The most important thing for a chronic fatigue syndrome diet is to try to eat healthy meals. A good diet will not cure chronic fatigue but combined with other good management techniques, it will give you the best chance of being as well as you can be, while a bad diet will make the condition worse. 


In this article we will consider what is a healthy chronic fatigue syndrome diet and how you (or the person you are caring for) can eat well even if unable to cook regular meals.

What Is A Healthy Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Diet?

You probably know the answer to this already. A good chronic fatigue syndrome diet contains lots of fresh fruit and vegetables, less sugar and less 'junk foods'. If you are overweight, you can also cut down on fats, but we do need some fat in our diet. Aim for healthy fats like olive oil where you can.

Keep in mind that some foods will almost certainly make C.F.S. worse. Stimulants like caffeine and sugar may seem to give you an energy boost, but in fact just destabilize the body and make you more likely to collapse later.

Refined grain products (white bread, pasta, white rice) have the same 'boom and bust' effect on your blood sugar. Avoid them and choose whole grain options like whole wheat bread and pasta or brown rice.

Also avoid alcohol, artificial sweeteners and additives. Keep your food as natural as possible.

Many people who have chronic fatigue syndrome turn out to have food allergies or intolerances. It is worth being tested for allergens. Cutting out foods that you are allergic to could make a big difference to your health.

How To Have A Healthy Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Diet With Low Energy

People with mild C.F.S. may be able to cook healthy meals from scratch using  organic vegetables, good quality meats and fish, etc. People with severe C.F.S. may have a carer who is willing and able to do this for them. 


But in between these two situations, there are many patients who find it difficult to have a healthy chronic fatigue syndrome diet because they do not have the energy to cook. Here are some tips to make it easier for you to eat healthy without spending hours in the kitchen.

1. Plan menus for 3-4 days at a time. Planning your meals can seem like a lot of work at first but keep the menus and after a couple of weeks you can simply repeat them.

2. Make a list before you go grocery shopping. Always go to the same store so you don’t waste energy searching for things. Even better, order online. Have your shopping delivered.

3. To increase the amount of vegetables in your diet without having to wash and chop them, buy ready-to-cook vegetables and prepared salads. They are a little more expensive but they can save you a lot of energy. Or use frozen vegetables which are both cheap and convenient (but not so tasty).

4. Prepare twice as much as you need and keep half in the refrigerator or freezer for the next day.

5. Don't stand if you can sit. Get a high stool that allows you to sit at the kitchen counter while chopping vegetables, washing dishes or stirring pans.

6. Take frequent breaks. If a recipe book says that a dish takes 30 minutes to prepare, allow an hour so that you can rest between activities.

7. Have some ‘TV dinners’ in the refrigerator or freezer that can simply be heated in the microwave or oven on bad days, but be sure they are healthy options. Meals intended for weight loss dieters are often good choices because they are usually low in sugar, but choose those that do not contain artificial sweeteners and additives. Add extra vegetables. You can also add fruit, olive oil, whole wheat bread, whole wheat noodles etc if diet meals don't give you enough calories. Don't buy pizza and snacks.

8. Take a good multivitamin and mineral supplement (after consultation with your doctor). Ideally we would satisfy all of our nutritional needs with healthy food but a supplement is better than nothing and can prevent deficiencies in a chronic fatigue syndrome diet.

It is worth doing everything you can to ensure that you eat well. It can make C.F.S. easier to manage because energy levels are more predictable. Even more important, good nutrition with plenty of antioxidants helps the body to fight off infection, which can help to prevent relapses. A healthy chronic fatigue syndrome diet can make a huge difference to your health.

CFS Second Book in the Works

Yes, it has taken over 18 months, but Warren Tattersall and I have been working away on the second book in the series about how to Beat CFS Naturally... and this book will cover the use of supplements and CFS Diet strategies to help people recover.

The plan is to get it out in the next month, so keep your eyes out for an update.

Cover has been done already, and most of it is written, Warren is just polishing the information he has written from his 20+ years experience working with people who want to pretty much exclusively use nutrition to heal themselves, rather than medication or even PACE lifestyle changes.

I have been blown away by some of the information he is sharing in this new book!

Despite 'knowing it all' about CFS, and using supplements as a key solution to my health issues, I still have so much to learn from Warren, as he is dealing with new cases and new twist to old solutions every day still.

This is a sneak preview for you of the book cover, for this second book in the series:


And then we get to work on a shorter Kindle report to help Carers of people suffering with CFS... as that is another whole story again!

If you haven't already checked out book #1 in the series, you can learn more here  (just click on the cover below):


and on that page you can also read the book reviews of people who have read it!
