Abstract
A study conducted by Newcastle University PhD student Cara Tomas, demonstrating that white blood cells in people with the condition of chronic fatigue syndrome are as listless as the people themselves often feel is discussed. She and her colleagues measured the efficiency of mitochondria, the energy-generating powerhouses in cells and team found that mitochondria in CFS cells can't produce energy properly which points directly to a physiological, not psychological disorder. Tomas states that, the finding adds to mounting evidence that the disorder has biological explanation and raises the prospects for new treatments and diagnostic tests.
