Fibromyalgia (FM) is a complex, widespread pain disorder characterized by symptoms such as fatigue, sleep deprivation, mental fog, mood swings, and headaches. Currently, there are only three FDA-approved medications for FM patients: duloxetine, milnacipran, and pregabalin, with outcomes frequently being inadequate. This research team aims to investigate the effects of diet and lifestyle modifications on FM, with emphasis on anti-inflammatory diet, antioxidants, and gluten-free diets, as well as supplementation with Magnesium, CQ10, and Vitamin D, microbiome, sleep, exercise, and cognitive behavioral therapy. We reviewed the pathophysiology of certain foods that can be proinflammatory with the release of cytokines leading to activation of pain, fatigue and aggravation of the majority of Fibromyalgia symptoms. A literature review was performed by identifying FM articles published between 1994 and 2022 PubMed and EMBASE databases, with particular emphasis on randomized controlled trials, meta-analysis, and evidence-based treatment guidelines. This review article was completed by a comprehensive narrative review process, in which our team systematically examined relevant scientific literature to provide a comprehensive overview of the significant role that diet and other lifestyle modifications play in mediating symptoms of Fibromyalgia. We propose that diet modifications and lifestyle changes, such as sleep, exercise, and weight loss, can be important steps in managing FM.
纤维肌痛(FM)是一种复杂的、广泛存在的疼痛障碍,其症状包括疲劳、睡眠剥夺、精神模糊、情绪波动和头痛。目前,只有三种 FDA 批准的 FM 患者药物:度洛西汀、米那普仑和普瑞巴林,但其结果常常不够理想。这个研究团队旨在研究饮食和生活方式改变对 FM 的影响,重点关注抗炎饮食、抗氧化剂和无麸质饮食,以及补充镁、CQ10 和维生素 D、微生物组、睡眠、运动和认知行为疗法。我们回顾了某些食物的病理生理学,这些食物可能会引发炎症反应,导致细胞因子释放,从而激活疼痛、疲劳,并加重大多数纤维肌痛症状。通过识别 1994 年至 2022 年期间在 PubMed 和 EMBASE 数据库中发表的 FM 文章,我们进行了文献综述,特别强调了随机对照试验、荟萃分析和循证治疗指南。我们通过全面的叙述性综述过程完成了这篇综述文章,我们的团队系统地检查了相关的科学文献,以提供饮食和其他生活方式改变在调节纤维肌痛症状方面的重要作用的全面概述。我们提出,饮食改变和生活方式改变,如睡眠、运动和减肥,可以是管理 FM 的重要步骤。
