Glucose

Glucose is a simple sugar.
ME/CFS[edit | edit source]
A study of skeletal muscle cell cultures from 10 subjects with CFS found blunted glucose uptake after electrical stimulation.[1]
A study of cerebral glucose metabolism in 26 patients with chronic fatigue syndrome via 18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) found abnormalities in approximately half of patients.[2] A 1998 PET study also found evidence of reduced metabolism in 18 patients.[3]
