Chronic Fatigue and Weight Control Chronic Fatigue patients tend to have a more difficult time with weight reduction and maintaining ideal body weight. Lets examine a few causational factors. Most CFIDS patients have difficulties with hormonal balance. Often, CFIDS patients suffer from hormonal axis problems such as thyroid, ovarian, testicular and adrenal function. For example, overweight females with CFIDS tend to have higher levels of the "unfriendly" type of estrogen. Some scientists predict that excess body fat will ultimately prove to be most strongly implicated in the development of so-called hormonal cancers. Those are breast, prostrate, ovary, endometrium and testes. That is because the adipose tissue, i.e. fat cells, tend to be magnets for unwanted converted hormones. In males with CFIDS, testosterone, particularly free testosterone, can be decreased while the male will have higher levels of estrogen. To assist our CFIDS patients, we find the following to be beneficial:
