Taurine 4-5 grams twice daily. Taurine is vital for reducing microglial activation. It assists in reducing neuropathy and in improving muscle function.
Vitamin B12 1 mg, Methyl Folate (MTHF) 5 mg daily, acetyl-carnitine 500mg twice daily, CoQ10 150mg daily, Benfotiamine (Thiamine) 100mg twice daily, magnesium (any form) 300mg twice daily. This set of supplements is used widely in the mitochondrial diseases to assist the optimal functioning of mitochondria.
If you can, add the following:
Vitamin D3 5000IU daily
NAC (N-acetyl cysteine) 500mg daily NAC is used extensively to improve the supply of glutathione, the body's most important antioxidant and an aid to mitochondrial function.
As a note: Taurine deficiency is widespread in FM. When a Taurine deficiency exists, the body can use glutathione to make taurine but this is unfortunate because it reduces the glutathione supply.
I'm going to get Taurine, I don't think I've ever taken it...it's an amino acid.
