More physicians and parents are recognizing children who have Chronic Fatigue and/or Fibromyalgia. Emerging research indicates these conditions are similar enough to have the same cause. The only difference is in some of the symptoms experienced. The diagnosis given a child may depend more on the specialist who gives it, because the symptoms of the diseases are very similar. The symptoms (See list below) can come on gradually or linger after a case of the flu.

Studies have shown acne can cause poor self-image, low self-esteem, lack of confidence, anxiety and depression. It seems the worse the acne, the worse the consequences.

If acne is affecting your enjoyment of life, you should see a GP for help - there is a lot available!

No. This isn't an anti-smoking crusade. Most teenagers who smoke think they can quit whenever they want. They won't know they have a gorilla on their backs until they have tried to quit a couple of times. That's when they will be ready for this program.

Fibromyalgia is the second most common type of arthritis affecting 3.7 million people in the United States. This disease afflicts mainly women (70 to 90 percent of those developing this disease are women aged 20 to 50). Fibromyalgia is a disease involving pain in muscles or joints with no clinical signs of infection. It is often misdiagnosed as chronic fatigue syndrome, and usually does not require surgery.

Anyone can suffer a stroke. While strokes are more common in adults, they are not uncommon in young adults or children. The causes of stroke in children are often different from the causes in adults. Children for example are more likely to suffer from stroke resulting from a congenital abnormality, or from infection with various childhood diseases including varicella. Some studies suggest many factors contribute to a child's risk including mutations of certain genes.

Other than people with known allergies to cranberries, anyone with fibromyalgia can use Fibro 90/10 capsules as a supplement.

In much the same way as it does for adults! The very same concepts can be applied to children and teenagers - legalizing all foods, letting go of body hatred, demand feeding. In a child, the question "Are you hungry?" is very important to start asking at as young an age as possible. Allow a child to keep their stomach-hunger connected with eating - do not start applying "rules" to a child's eating.

Premenstrual symptoms can begin anytime after a woman begins to menstruate and, on average, menstruation begins at around 12 ½ years of age in the U.S. Women tend to seek treatment for premenstrual symptoms in their late twenties and early to mid-thirties, so it is difficult to know exactly when milder premenstrual symptoms actually become severe enough to be considered PMDD. Even though PMDD is usually first diagnosed after adolescence, it can certainly occur in teenagers.

Unless prohibited by state regulations, Teenagers may be treated. It is, of course, wise to have the permission of the Parents of Teens under legal age. We have treated Teenagers very successfully many times.

Teens are especially vulnerable to drug abuse, when the brain and body are still developing. Most teens do not use drugs, but for those who do, it can lead to a wide range of adverse effects on the brain, the body, behavior and health. Short term: Even a single use of an intoxicating drug can affect a person's judgment and decisonmaking—resulting in accidents, poor performance in a school or sports activity, unplanned risky behavior, and the risk of overdosing.

It is odd that vision problems are so common in children and it should be cause for major concern and research effort. Imagine the concern if such numbers of children were suffering from hearing problems or speech problems. For some reason eyesight problems can be written off as genetic and a pair of glasses routinely prescribed. However this is treating the symptom and not tackling the cause.

Jodechi has conducted a number of healing sessions with children, with a parent always present. Children often internalise their emotions, unable to express what they truly feel and like adults suffer unnecessarily. Children can experience bullying at school, peer group pressure or crises closer to home - all having a detrimental effect on a child's state of mind. Some adults spend their whole lives trying to undo the damage inflicted on them in childhood.

In the metabolic process of absorbing nutrients and removing waste matters, large quantities of toxins are produced. This coupled with external factors, contributes to a rise in the toxin level. Therefore, children and teenagers need detoxification in order to clear the body’s detoxification channels of toxins. Their immunity and resistance against ailments will also be improved.

Teenagers enter a new developmental stage and so, can understand adoption in new ways. During the teen years children's brains develop so that they can consider hypothetical situations. They can think, "what if I stayed with my birth family?" or, "What if I was adopted by a different family?" In addition, one of the important jobs of teenagers is defining their identity.

Myalgia is muscle pain, often accompanied by weakness. FM patients have many overlapping medical symptoms with EMS patients, and one is muscle pain. Some with EMS have been diagnosed as having FM secondary to EMS, while others might have had pre-existing FM before they got EMS - perhaps as the result of a car accident or some other trauma.

The diagnosis is made by a history of chronic muscle pains and the finding of muscle tender points in specific areas.
