Are you ready to heal from chronic fatigue or fibromyalgia?
Chronic fatigue (CFS) and fibromyalgia (FMS) are illnesses that can result from a number of contributing factors, such as, dietary, environmental toxins, genetic predisposition, burning your candle at both ends, and unrelieved stress. Whatever path you’ve taken to arrive at where you are, you have undoubtedly run yourself into the ground. And now, your body, mind, and spirit have said enough, and are forcing you to STOP!
I urge you to please listen to your higher self. CFS and FMS are all about learning or relearning how to nurture your body, mind, and spirit. You can recover completely. I know that this is a fact, given that I’ve done it myself!
I healed myself when I was suffering from a lot more than just chronic fatigue (CFS) and fibromyalgia (FMS). I was suffering from a rare autoimmune illness called mixed connective tissue disorder. In addition to the CFS and FMS, I had scleroderma, Raynaud’s syndrome, random nerve pain, loss of digestive motility, trigeminal neuralgia, difficulty swallowing, insomnia, and panic attacks. I was a real mess. My journey took ten years and I recovered using natural and holistic methods. Despite the fact that Western medical doctors told me there was no hope for a cure. Fortunately, for me, I ignored them. Actually, I fired them! Now, I feel great, I’ve got my life back, and I want to help others do the same. This blog is part 1 of a Series I’m doing on techniques to help you recover from chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia.
Keep reading for advice on what you need to heal.
- Chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia are a cry for nourishment and nurturing. Pouring lots of nutrition into your body is critical.
- Eat as much as you can of organic, nutrient-dense foods, such as kale, chard, dandelion greens, broccoli, beets, carrots, parsley, goji berries, avocados, asparagus, and watercress.
- Eat plenty of nuts and seeds, such as walnuts, almonds, hemp seeds, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds.
- Eat hearty nutritious soups, salads, smoothies, and combination fresh juices. Stay tuned to my blog for delicious and nutritious recipes.
- I recommend beginning your healing program with the Vitality 15-day Detox Program.
- Remove dairy, processed sugar, alcohol, and grains, most especially wheat, from your diet. These will all exacerbate inflammation and inhibit your recovery.
