Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
-
The causes of chronic fatigue syndrome, CFS, has baffled scientists and researchers for decades. The condition was recognized as a specific entity as far back as the late 1860’s when physician Dr. George Beard named it neurasthesia because it appeared to be related to a nervous disorder that caused weakness and fatigue.
Today researchers have a list of different medical conditions that may be at the root cause of chronic fatigue syndrome. While there isn’t a definitive answer there are some suggestions that have led to changes in the treatment protocols for the disease. Some of these causes include low blood glucose condition, anemia and environmental allergies. These causes produce the same symptoms as Chronic Fatigue Syndrome but also have treatments that don’t erase the problems associated with CFS.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, CFS, is a complex condition that affects between 1 and 4 million people worldwide. In fact, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention believes that number is low. They estimate in the U.S. many people who have the symptoms don’t seek medical care for their disability. They know that of those in the U.S. 25% are either unemployed or on disability as a result of the symptoms of their condition.
Since there is no known cause or cure for the condition many people turn to other natural alternatives to help boost their immune system. One of those alternatives is carrot juice. Carrot juice has long been known to have a number of health benefits for people.
