The Guaifenesin Reversal Process

In March of 1996 I began guaifenesin treatment for fibromyalgia with Dr. R. Paul St. Amand, an Assistant Clinical Professor of Endocrinology at Harbor-UCLA (send an SASE to 4560 Admiralty Way, Suite 355, Marina Del Rey, Ca 90292 to receive his fibromyalgia and hypoglycemia papers). In his view, CFIDS is just fibromyalgia with a lower level of pain sensitivity. His theory is that both illnesses are due to an inability of the kidney to adequately excrete phosphate. This leads to excess phosphate, accompanied by calcium, being stored within cells. This also leads to a deficit in ATP, the primary energy molecule of the body. Guaifenesin and other uricosuric drugs are able to increase phosphate excretion (when not blocked by salicylates), and thus have led to the effective reversal of the disease in thousands of Dr. St. Amand’s patients over more than 30 years. Now many physicians around the country are using this approach and an Internet survey of 100 patients showed a response rate of 91% (see Nancy Medeiros’ web site http://www.csusm.edu/public/guests/fibromt.htm for more information).

Guaifenesin is sold in many health food stores under the name guai

Everything that's old is new again goes the saying. In the 1500s, the guaicum plant was discovered and it was found to be useful in treating "rheumatism". As recently as 1920, a study was published showing guaifenesin extracted from that plant to be an effective treatment.
