US nutritionist claims positive effects

Fibromyalgia: Reducing symptoms by eating asparagus

An American clinical health nutritionist has claimed that adding vegetables like asparagus to your diet can reduce fibromyalgia symptoms. Dr. Josh Axe claims sufferers should try “melatonin-rich foods” as this will “help them sleep”. On his website, Axe continued : “As sleep disorders are common among fibromyalgia symptoms, increasing the sleep hormone melatonin is recommended.” Melatonin, a hormone naturally made in your body, regulates the body’s sleep pattern.

Deficiencies in zinc, magnesium and folate have been linked to lower melatonin levels meaning, according to Axe, eating foods containing these may raise your melatonin level and help you get to sleep. According to express.co.uk, asparagus, ginger and bananas were all labelled as foods that can help you achieve more sleep.
