Orthomolekulare Therapie beim Fibromyalgiesyndrom

Zusammenfassung

Mikronährstoffe können eine wichtige ergänzende Rolle in der Prävention und der Therapie vieler Krankheiten spielen. Sie beeinflussen neben psychischen Symptomen und Schmerz auch Funktionskreisläufe wie Inflammation, Immunsystem, Energiehaushalt und oxidativen Stress, die beim Fibromyalgiesyndrom (FMS) eine wichtige Rolle spielen. Im Beitrag wird das ganzheitlich orientierte Konzept der Mikronährstoffmedizin zur Behandlung des FMS vorgestellt.

Abstract

Micronutrients can play an important complementary role in the prevention and therapy of many diseases. In addition to psychic symptoms and pain, they also influence functional circuits like inflammation, immune system, energy balance, and oxidative stress, which play an important role in the fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS). In this article, the holistic concept of micronutrient medicine for the treatment of the FMS is presented.
