Natural Cure for Fibromyalgia

So the answer is simple, the body needs to be detoxed and put on a new diet in order to be healed. A juice fast is the fastest way to clean and restore essential nutrients back to the body. However, a juice fast may not be ideal for you if you have never fasted before, as it will be too hard on your body. Therefore going on a raw diet and drinking plenty of freshly squeezed juices is ideal, until you are ready to go on a juice fast.

In order for your body to properly detoxify, you need to eliminate all animal proteins, processed foods, refined sugars, and other junk foods, as well as alcohol, cigarettes and drugs. Then you need to add in the good stuff like fresh fruits, leaf vegetables, root and other vegetables and nuts and seeds.

Studies have shown that Fibromyalgia sufferers are deficient in magnesium, which is a natural muscle relaxer. Magnesium can be found in foods like avocados, spinach, swiss chard, almonds, peanuts, and hazelnuts.

Calcium is another deficiency, and it can be obtained by eating dandelion greens, collards, kale, broccoli, mustard greens, sesame seeds, sunflower seeds, almonds, brazil nuts, and pecans.

Another deficiency is serotonin which is a hormone that helps to induce sleep, and reduces fatigue, anxiety, depression, and fibro fog to improve your memory. Serotonin is found in living foods such as raw cacao, bananas, kiwi, pineapple, peanuts, tomatoes, avocados, broccoli, melons, dates, eggplant, figs, grapefruit, spinach, mushrooms, walnuts and hickory.

In order to obtain the most from these foods, they should be organic and eaten in their raw state, as cooking will deplete them of their vital nutrients. These foods are excellent detoxifiers and will have you feeling better in as little as 30 days. However, the road to a full recovery can take months and even years, depending on how severe your condition is.

Other things that you can do to help remove the toxins is to drink at least 3 liters of water every day. Taking hot baths or using a sauna will help you to sweat the toxins out. In addition you should also obtain moderate exercise through walking or whatever form of exercise you are able to do without aggravating your symptoms.

The key to overcoming Fibromyalgia is to make small but gradual changes so that your body can safely adjust to the new changes in your diet and lifestyle.
