BREAKING NEWS: Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Cause, Mechanism & Diagnostic Test Discovered, Researchers Say

This could be the biggest news ever concerning chronic fatigue syndrome.  Prominent researcher Kenny de Meirleir announced that he and his Belgian research team have uncovered a major cause and a major underlying mechanism of the condition.  What's more, he says they've also developed a simple and inexpensive home test kit.

The Cause & Mechanism

According to Dr. de Meirleir, a major cause is a high level of hydrogen sulphate (H2S). H2S can build up after antibiotic use, salmonella infection, or too much mercury exposure.

The Test

Dr. de Meirleir says the diagnostic test accurately shows whether you have high levels of hydrogen sulphate in your urine. It's a simple color-change test, similar to what's commonly used in home pregnancy tests. It will soon be available from Dr. de Meirleir's company Protea Biopharma.
