Hypothetic Cause of Fibromyalgia

A number of theories exist on the cause of fibromyalgia and much research has been done over the years. A correct all encompassing theory on fibromyalgia must conform to, or at least not contradict, all valid research findings on fibromyalgia.

In this presentation I attempt to take what is known about fibromyalgia and piece the information together in a manner that makes sense. Whether I have been successful in doing this will be determined by how much sense the information makes to you.

This page shows a brief outline of what I believe to be the underlying cause of the physical symptoms of fibromyalgia. I believe the physical problem begins within the digestive system, more specifically the intestinal flora, and has a domino effect on other systems in the body.

To better understand the intracacies and interdependent relationship of functions in the body, study the information on the following pages. Review the information found at the related links. Reason it out in your own mind; Ponder the information, see if it makes sense to you.

As a child I was taught to follow a certain healthful lifestyle, to abstain from coffee, alcohol, tobacco, etc... The promised blessing of obedience to this lifestyle was "Health in the navel and marrow to the bone"; Just as it is promised in the Bible in Proverbs 3:8. Until now, my thinking has been a general concept of "Well the navel (digestive system) is where the body gets the nutrients from the foods we eat and the cells that make up our blood and immune system are generated in the bone marrow".

It was not until doing this study of fibromyalgia research over the past few years that it has become more clear just how crucial "health in the navel and marrow to the bone" is to the overall health of the body. And, the impact to the entire system if "health in the navel and marrow to the bone" becomes impaired.

If you are a little confused with the information presented on this page, that's okay. In the pages that follow I will try to make things more clear. If at the end of this presentation this information is still unclear to you please let me know.
