How to Defeat
Fatigue Forever
By Dr. Floyd Taub (Second in a two part series)
In Part 1 of our article (Health Breakthrough February 28, 2006), “How to
Defeat Fatigue Forever” I addressed the basic causes of fatigue and some
of the conventional treatments doctors rely upon.
Part 2 of this article addresses the research behind a new class of drug, “Homeopathic Nano Drugs” that is finding favor and benefit for patients dealing with fatigue. What Is A NanoDrug™? As you discovered in the following section, Alexin’s primary ingredient, Taurox SB, is one of the first of a new therapy class known as NanoDrugs. This cutting edge technology allows scientists to use very small, but extremely potent, amounts of active ingredients. Such small doses mean that harmful side effects and toxicity are almost nonexistent. High potency means that you have to take the drug less often, making it easier to comply with your doctor’s prescription and keeping your costs down. What Exactly Is Alexin? Alexin contains the homeopathic agent known as Taurox SB, a chemical combination of taurine, alanine and an agent to allow oral absorption. The Alexin formula also contains other homeopathic ingredients for fatigue and strengthening the immune system. A series of clinical studies found that Taurox SB helped to improve energy and focus in people complaining of fatigue. Over 90% had a reduction in fatigue. The average reduction was over 50 percent. Because Alexin is administered in extremely low doses, it is one of the safest treatments on the market. It is the only one (except for those that correct anemia) showing statistically significant benefits. Alexin works by regulating the amount of cytokines in your body. Cytokines are proteins that your cells secrete in order to help regulate your immune system. Sometimes our cytokine levels get off kilter, however, and many healthcare professionals believe that this imbalance can lead to fatigue, lack of focus, myalgia (muscle pain), and even depression. Alexin’s primary ingredient, Taurox SB, has been shown to control cytokine levels in human cells. Historic Breakthrough Double-blind placebo-controlled studies indicated Alexin with Taurox SB had the potential to help individuals who suffer from the following symptoms. These were then tested in clinical trials. • Fatigue • Allergies • Headaches • Muscle aches and pains • Colds • Viruses • Premenstrual syndrome (PMS) • Neurological problems • Appetite abnormalities • Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) (Click here to view the actual scientific results and to learn more about how to try Alexin risk-free for 90 days) A Natural Energy Boost All of the ingredients found in Alexin are based on natural products. Taken together these ingredients provide a potent cocktail for relief from fatigue and lack of focus due to any number of ailments. The other Alexin ingredients are homeopathically prepared minerals, which produce benefits from only tiny amounts. Getting adequate amounts of taurine is essential for your health and well-being. Taurine is an amino acid that is produced within the body. However, sometimes our bodies do not produce enough of it to keep us healthy. Taurine is concentrated in your brain, eyes and heart. The key ingredients are combined to produce Alexin, in a process known as NanoDrug Manufacturing Technology. With this technology, scientists can develop a blend of extremely small amounts of ingredients into a potent and safe treatment. Because it is delivered to your body in very low doses there are few, if any, side effects. This technology is consistent with standard homeopathic methods. Like other homeopathic drugs, Alexin is designed to work with the body gently, not by force, reminding the immune system what is supposed to do rather than imposing an artificial environment on your system. NanoDrug technology makes drugs like Alexin especially potent, probably much more than the typical homeopathic drug. NanoDrug technology also benefits you in another way: You need to take Alexin less often, making it an affordable alternative to pricey prescription drug therapies. But Does It Work? The data presented here comes from presentations at scientific meetings. As you will see in a later section of this special report, medical studies have proven time and again that Alexin is an effective and safe treatment for both disease-related and general fatigue. The studies included the use of Taurox SB for the prevention of allergy attacks, decreased fatigue, immune system strengthening and improved mental stamina. The allergy study consisted of 18 patients who suffered from allergy symptoms. After taking Taurox, 11 of the patients reported a dramatic reduction in symptoms.The fatigue results were even more convincing. All but one of the study participants reported reduced fatigue symptoms and improved sleep after taking Taurox SB. These patients’ fatigue was caused by a number of factors including chronic fatigue syndrome, hepatitis C and cancer. What is Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (Also known as Chronic Fatigue ImmuneDisregulatory Syndrome). Doctors believe that as many as half a million Americans may be living with the mystery known as chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS). CFS is not like the normal energy ebbs and flows we experience in everyday life. The early sign of this illness is a strong and noticeable fatigue that comes on suddenly and often comes and goes or just never stops. You feel too tired to do normal activities or are easily exhausted with no apparent reason. The profound weakness of CFS does not go away with a few good nights of sleep. Instead, it slyly steals your energy and vigor over months and sometimes years. For many people, CFS begins after a bout with a cold, bronchitis, hepatitis, or an intestinal bug. For some, it follows a bout of infectious mononucleosis, which temporarily saps the energy of many teenagers and young adults. Often, people say that their illnesses started during a period of high stress. In others, CFS develops more gradually, with no clear illness or other event leading up to it. In addition to fatigue, CFS symptoms include: • Headache • Tender lymph nodes • Weakness • Muscle and joint aches • Inability to concentrate How Can Alexin Help CFS Sufferers? A study performed by Dr. S. E. Mayerson and I presented at the First International Conference on Whole Person Hearing in Bethesda, Maryland found that CFS patients may benefit by supplementing their doctor-prescribed treatment plan with the main ingredient in Alexin. Study participants who took about two drops once a day for a month showed a decrease of CFS-related fatigue of almost 50% percent. The doctors also found no incidences of adverse side effects in any of the patients who had supplemented with Alexin. The figure below includes all types of patients; half had CFS. Other Causes of Fatigue: Fibromyalgia Fibromyalgia is a chronic disorder characterized by widespread musculoskeletal pain, fatigue, and multiple tender points. “Tender points” refers to tenderness that occurs in precise, localized areas, particularly in the neck, spine, shoulders, and hips. People with this syndrome may also experience sleep disturbances, morning stiffness, irritable bowel syndrome, anxiety, and other symptoms. According to the American College of Rheumatology, fibromyalgia affects three to six million Americans. It primarily occurs in women of childbearing age, but children, the elderly, and men can also be affected. What Causes Fibromyalgia? Although the cause of fibromyalgia is unknown, researchers have several theories about causes or triggers of the disorder. Some scientists believe that the syndrome may be initiated by an injury or trauma. This injury may affect the central nervous system. Fibromyalgia may be associated with changes in muscle metabolism, such as decreased blood flow, causing fatigue and decreased strength. Others believe the syndrome may be triggered by an infectious agent such as a virus in susceptible people, but no such agent has been identified. Alexin Alleviates Fatigue from Fibromyalgia Because two of the main symptoms of Fibromyalgia are fatigue and sleeping disorders, Alexin may be an ideal supplement to your doctor-prescribed treatment. Take the case of Diane, a clinical nutritionist, she had been diagnosed with fibromyalgia, and experienced symptoms such as severe fatigue and depression. She remembered days when she would have to sleep away more than half the day just to function normally. Diane decided to give the Alexin formula a try. She was astounded when, after only five days on the treatment, she began to regain her former strength and energy. Most importantly the reduction in fatigue not only continued while on therapy, it appeared to increase each week! Other Causes: Cancer-Related Fatigue Fatigue is the most common symptom reported by cancer patients. In fact, an NIH report revealed that at least 70 percent of cancer patients suffer from life-altering fatigue that is not alleviated by resting. The exact cause of this fatigue is not always known. It can be due to your disease, chemotherapy, radiation, surgery, low blood counts, lack of sleep, pain, stress, poor appetite, along with many other factors. Alexin is designed to complement standard medical therapy. It should never be substituted for it. Alexin treats only your fatigue. Your doctor must identify and treat any underlying cause. General Fatigue After reading through this report, you may feel that Alexin is only appropriate for people suffering from serious illnesses. However, this is not the case. Alexin can be taken by people suffering from any kind of fatigue, whether it is stress-related, due to sleeping disruptions. Fatigue can be a normal and important response to physical exertion, emotional stress, boredom, or lack of sleep. However, it can also be a nonspecific sign of a more serious psychological or physical disorder. Fatigue that is not relieved by enough sleep, good nutrition, or a low-stress environment should be evaluated by your doctor. Because fatigue is a common complaint, sometimes a potentially serious cause may be overlooked.

Here are some tips for reducing fatigue: • Get adequate, regular, and consistent amounts of sleep each night. • Eat a healthy, well-balanced diet and drink plenty of water throughout the day. • Exercise regularly. • Learn better ways to relax. Try yoga or meditation. • Maintain a reasonable work and personal schedule. • Change your stressful circumstances, if possible. For example, switch jobs, take a vacation, and deal directly with problems in a relationship. • Take a multivitamin. Talk to your doctor about what you need and what is best for you. • Avoid alcohol, nicotine, and drug use.
