Fibromyalgia Diet and Dairy Products

For my friend Sophie, diet has played a huge! really HUGE part in managing her Fibromyalgia.  Without modifying her diet, there would still be the days plagued by pain, fatigue and the nights dominated by lack of sleep with the inevitable Fibromyalgia brain fog.

If you suffer with Fibromyalgia, do not underestimate just how important cutting out certain foods can be to your overall management and self-improvement.  What you cut out to help you with this will obviously vary from individual to individual - that makes sense since FMS is such an individual condition.

Dairy products are often quoted as one of the main foods groups to eliminate from your diet when attempting to manage your diet in regards to Fibromyalgia.  However be very careful that you know what you’re doing and to what extent you do this - first and foremost talk to your doctor.

Dairy products are a primary source of calicum which we need to maintain healthy teeth and bones.  Bone density and osteoparosis are real and important concerns, in women especially, but to men also, and maintaining your intake of calcium is vital at whatever age you are.

Calcium supplements are available by Clicking Here and you should absolutely ensure that you are taking your quota - again, ALWAYS consult your doctor!!

Also, please remember to get your Vitamin D levels tested every 2/3 years by your doctor.  You need Vitamin D so that your body can make use of those calcium supplements that you are taking.  Without appropriate Vitamin D levels, your body will not be able to use the calcium you are giving it and you will simply be wasting your time, money and efforts.
