About Nadine Saubers


I'm a former pediatric trauma ICU RN who was sick with CFS for nearly 2 decades. During that time I connected the dots and figured out the cause and how to recover from this life sucking, defeating, and profoundly miserable illness.

I wrote The Complete Idiot's Guide to Fighting Fatigue and while this is a mainstream book geared toward the general public I tried to instill much of what I want you to know if you are suffering from CFS. Please don't buy into the myth that there is no cure for CFS and it's a life sentence. You have the power and control to heal and with the proper information and you'll lose that element of fear and loss of control and get on the road to recovery.

If you are sick with any other chronic illness I can also help you to be as well as you can be with that illness. It's my burning desire to be the representative of hope to those with chronic illness and CFS. I'm available for wellness coaching, email me: nsaubers (at) cox (dot) net and I'll set up a plan for your healing.

In my business Nadine & Co. I've had a couple of my designs manufactured, a reusable shopping bag tote Use It Again Sam® and a tool I invented to remove Invisalign braces called the OUTIE. Recently I expanded Nadine & Co. to include home decor and will be showing and selling shabby chic furniture and other items on my new blog Shabby Fabby.

I also do research for film producers, writers, publishers, and other clients like software developers. You can see my blog for all of that here.

I'm passionate about things like wellness, how to become well and stay that way, and basically living well.

I'm a Christian and seek continually how to live the best life through my relationship with Jesus Christ. I go to The Rock church in San Diego.

Here's a basic rundown of my books and products


The OUTIE is a tool for the easy and safe removal of invisible braces. Use one end to push your bottom aligner up and off, and the other end to pull the top aligner down and off.
Go to OUTE.





Using a reusable Use It Again Sam® bag gives you a chance to reduce CO2 emissions by reducing the number of plastic bags that are produced.
