Fibromyalgia is a painful, chronic condition which can result in symptoms such as fatigue, pain, insomnia, IBS or depression.

However debilitating your symptoms, eating the right foods can stimulate healing at a fundamental level. The Fibromyalgia Healing Diet gives nutritional advice based on sound research on how to address dietary imbalances, including information about osteoporosis, the importance of vitamin D, and the correct balance of carbohydrates, protein and fat for people with fibromyalgia.

The author writes as someone with fibromyalgia, and this book explains exactly what it means to have the condition, as well as why diet is such an important aspect of treatment. There is advice on essential nutrients and on substances to avoid as well as supplements to help. There is a simple, achievable detox programme and a wealth of delicious, easy to cook recipes to help you treat the cause of the condition, not just the symptoms, and to reclaim your life.
