My Favorite Medical Breakthroughs of 2023
Vitality101 Newsletter
Hello Reader,
2023 brought the world a number of health challenges, but also some medical breakthroughs. Keeping informed of these can make all the difference to your well-being. Here are two key areas I focused on:
- Benefits of the Smart Energy System™ for energy. We completed two studies in people who reported a loss of energy and function of at least 50%. Simply supplementing with a mix of six herbs and nutrients provided in the Smart Energy System™ resulted in an average 60% increase in energy and 80.7 % increase in stamina.
- Benefits of HRG80™ Red Ginseng for energy. We published a study of 188 people who reported at least 50% decreased function before taking a unique form of ginseng called HRG80™ Red Ginseng chewable tablets. Taking this supplement resulted in an average 50% increase in energy in participants.
Results were seen within six weeks, and often within days. Cognition, sleep, discomfort, and overall well-being also improved dramatically, showing that this was an increase in healthy energy.
I recommend this as a wonderful combination for everyone who wants to start their new year with an amazing increase in energy and well-being.
Research also suggests a wonderful ounce of prevention for those worried about Fibro flares: an inexpensive and safe prescription called metformin. I recommend that you ask your doctor for a prescription to keep on hand in case you come down with Covid. In a Lancet study of a thousand people, taking metformin in the first four days of Covid infection resulted in a 60% lower risk of getting long Covid. This suggests that it would likely decrease the risk of Fibro flares as well.
As my New Year's gift to you, I invite you to email me at FatigueDoc@gmail.com and ask me to send you a pair of information sheets I have on metformin (show this to your doctor) and CFS/fibromyalgia/long Covid.
2024 is a year where you can get your life back!
Live Outside the U.S.? Here's Something That Can Help You Too!
We have now published two studies showing that a new nutritional supplement based on a unique amino acid dramatically helps people with fibromyalgia. It's called "Recovery Factors®." This is a reasonably priced supplement that's been a life changer for many people, and it's available by mail everywhere in the world except, unfortunately, the United States. But if you live outside the U.S. and have difficulty getting the supplements I discussed in my "Favorite Medical Breakthroughs" article above, then Recovery Factors is a good alternative to try.
You can find our initial study on Recovery Factors published at The Open Pain Journal website. If you'd like to also read our second, larger, study (which we will be submitting for publication), email me at FatigueDoc@gmail.com and I'll send you a copy.

Brilliant New Brain Fog Friendly Puzzle Book (for Kids and Adults :-)
I have the pleasure of five of my grandchildren visiting with me now, and they've been thrilled with a new puzzle book called "Treasure Hunt – a Giant Activity Book!" by M D Starr. This book is a blast for kids (and adults) of all ages. It's even fun for those with "brain fog" :-) So whether you’re looking for a fun activity that you can do with the kids, even if bedbound, or just to have fun yourself, I highly recommended getting this book!
It's even been flagged by Amazon as a "#1 New Release." I was so impressed with it that I added my own review: “This is a VERY COOL activity book for almost all ages. I like that it is not just one kind of puzzle (e.g., just crossword or sudoku. I get bored with those) but numerous different fun ones. Making it far more engaging. Think of a 'Solitaire' form of the game Trivial Pursuit."
Try it yourself. You'll enjoy it ;-)
