Question Low Carbing and Fibromyalgia

Has anyone heard about that low carb diets help the symtoms of Fibromyalgia? I thought I may have seen a link somewhere on this website about it, but can't find it now. Can anyone help me? If you can, can you please be specific as to where to find it?
Thanks in advance,
Gaily

hi Gaily,

We have a forum dedicated to Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, and I've posted several studies and other info. about the definite low-carb benefits for FMS and CFS.

If you click on the icon at the top right of the page, then look for the Low Carb Health & Technical Forums .. you'll see the subforum for Fibro. listed there. Or click here to open a new window.

hth,

Doreen

Talking Thanks,

Thanks, Doreen and Seyont. Doreen where are the studies you've found on the subject matter? I did see the threads which are helpful, but I'd also like to see the studies so I can have concrete evidence on how Lcing helps Fibro. Thanks!!!

Yes, Fibromyalgia symptoms decreased by 80% for me when I went low-carb!! Since some studies have shown that fibro and chronic fatigure are insulin-related, it would make sense that a low-carb diet would help.
