Major Fibromyalgia Muscle Study Points to the Mitochondria
Reduced ATP levels in the muscles suggests that mitochondrial problems are causing pain in fibromyalgia and other chronic pain conditions.
Emerging Insights #II: “The Cellular Equivalent of Chronic Fatigue” Found in ME/CFS
At the Emerge Conference Paul Fisher provides evidence of mitochondrial dysfunction in chronic fatigue syndrome aka ME/CFS. Complex V problems cause the mitochondria to poop out under stress - resulting in widespread attempts across the other complexes to compensate - and potentially explainiing the post-exertional malaise or PEM in ME/CFS
Cellular Energy Production Takes Big Hit in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) Study
The two-day exercise study results suggest that the ability to produce energy after exercise in chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) is blunted, and the search is on to identify blockages in cellular energy that could explain that. Lead by Cara Tomas, Julia Newton and...
Study Suggests “Bad Energy” is Core Problem in Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS)
Lactate has become a big deal in both chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) and fibromyalgia (FM). A by-product of anaerobic energy metabolism, lactate ordinarily gets pumped out of our cells in large amounts during exertion. The lactate findings suggest that the energy...Lives Interrupted Latest Story
