==NO/ONOO-cycle==
==NO/ONOO-cycle==
Dr. Pall developed the [[Nitric oxide hypothesis | Nitric Oxide Cycle Theory]], also, called the NO/ONOO-cycle (pronounced "no-oh-no" cycle) which states that this biochemical cycle causes the inflammation present in [[chronic fatigue syndrome]]/[[myalgic encephalomyelitis]] (CFS/ME), [[Multiple Chemical Sensitivity]] (MCS), [[fibromyalgia]] (FM) and possibly a large number of other chronic inflammatory diseases such as heart disease. "Nitric oxide, acting via its product peroxynitrite, a potent oxidant, acts to initiate a biochemical vicious cycle which is the cause of illness," explains Dr. Pall.<ref>http://www.prohealth.com//library/showArticle.cfm?libid=12896</ref>

Martin L. Pall, PhD, is a Professor Emeritus of Biochemistry and Basic Medical Sciences, Washington State University, Pullman, Washington, U.S.A.[1] He states that he developed Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) from a varicella zoster virus infection in the later 1990s but has made a full recovery by following a program of avoiding exercise, diet changes, and taking supplements that decrease inflammation.[2]

Dr. Pall was one of the authors of the 2011 case definition, the International Consensus Criteria.[3]

NO/ONOO-cycle[edit | edit source]

Dr. Pall developed the Nitric Oxide Cycle Theory, also, called the NO/ONOO-cycle (pronounced "no-oh-no" cycle) which states that this biochemical cycle causes the inflammation present in chronic fatigue syndrome/myalgic encephalomyelitis (CFS/ME), Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS), fibromyalgia (FM) and possibly a large number of other chronic inflammatory diseases such as heart disease. "Nitric oxide, acting via its product peroxynitrite, a potent oxidant, acts to initiate a biochemical vicious cycle which is the cause of illness," explains Dr. Pall.[4]

He believes that certain over-the-counter supplements, such as fish oil, CoQ10, vitamin E, NAC (N-acetylcysteine), magnesium, and other antioxidants, can help downregulate the oxidation caused by the nitric oxide cycle.[5] He believes Vitamin B12 injections can also be a potent nitric oxide scavenger.[6]
