Attn those with Fibromyalgia

Post by Gabes-Apg »

study about benefits of transdermal magnesium for fibromyalgia - that got published!!

http://www.jcimjournal.com/jim/FullText ... 15)60195-9

RESULTS: Twenty-four patients completed the study (mean [SD] age, 57.2 [7.6] years; white, 95%; mean body mass index, 31.3 kg/m2). With intention-to-treat analysis, Revised Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire subscale and total scores were significantly improved at week 2 and week 4 (total score, P = 0.001). Per-protocol analysis results were similar: all subscales of the Revised Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire were significantly improved at week 2 and week 4 (total score, P = 0.001).
CONCLUSION: This pilot study suggests that transdermal magnesium chloride applied on upper and lower limbs may be beneficial to patients with fibromyalgia.

Donna,

The link works if you copy and paste the complete URL into your browser address line, but because it contains some illegal operators (regarding % sign encoding), most browsers will not display it correctly. Try this link:

It is suspected that some of the hardest material known to science can be found in the skulls of GI specialists who insist that diet has nothing to do with the treatment of microscopic colitis.
