Dr Jacob Teitelbaum MD

Dr Teitelbaum is a board certified internist (a medical doctor who specialises in the care of adults) in the USA, and he is Medical Director of the American National Fibromyalgia and Fatigue Centers, Inc.

He is the author of 'From Fatigued to Fantastic!' a bestselling book on managing chronic fatigue, and 'Pain Free: 1-2-3', a step-by-step program to help identify the source of pain and understand how to alleviate it.

Dr Teitelbaum lectures to patient, physician and research groups internationally. He also speaks in the media on chronic fatigue, Fibro and on the use of supplements to manage these conditions, appearing on, among others, CNN, FOX News and the Oprah and Friends Show with Dr. Oz in the US and This Morning on ITV and STV in the UK.

He is the lead author of “gold standard” research on effective treatment for CFS and Fibro, which was published in the Journal of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, volume 8, number 2 in 2001. In April 2002, he was editorialized in the Journal of the American Academy of Pain Management, where his integrative treatment protocol was recognized as “standard of practice” for chronic pain conditions. His latest study, published in the Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine, focused on the effects of a 5-carbon sugar called D-ribose on Fibro patients.

Dr Teitelbaum also knows CFS/Fibro as an insider - he contracted Chronic Fatigue Syndrome when he was in medical school and had to drop out for a year to recover. In the ensuing 25 years, he dedicated his career to finding effective treatment.
