Collection of very poorly written news articles on ME/CFS

I think it’s relevant to keep archiving and keep discussion/sharing news articles on ME which are very poorly written. The large majority of these don’t fit in another thread and aren’t worth making a new thread of their own.

 

To start it off:

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Affects Almost 10-15% Of Middle-Aged Women: Doctors Share Management Tips — Onlymyhealth

in certain cases, fatigue may be severe and long-lasting. This is called Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS), also known as Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME).

the condition affects 10–15% of middle-aged women, attributed to the rise in stress and depression in this age group

According to Dr Ramakrishnan, treatment strategies for CFS largely depend on self-care.

“Patients should be encouraged to learn relaxation techniques, such as yoga or breathing exercises, to reduce the symptoms and manage anxiety. Additionally, maintaining a balanced nutrition diet and incorporating gentle exercise routines, like short outdoor jogs, can help improve overall well-being,” he says.​

Oh fair enough. Should I keep this thread for those that don’t fit into regional news?

 

Independently of what is done, it seems sensible to post/store archived versions of such articles if they are important in case they are removed/edited/paywalled.

 

It is an Indian website and basically all the Indian articles on ME/CFS that I have come across have been extraordinarily bad. I mean you can find bad articles everywhere but the ones coming from India seem to be uniformly very bad. The other day I posted one of them in one of the funny threads because it was celebrating ME/CFS Awareness Day with giving almost only ridiculously bad info on the disease and it also looked like it was written by some AI. I always feel sorry for pwME living there, there's an awful lot of misinformation about ME/CFS in the media there without any good info.
