Plant Based

Going Plant Based Was Like Living Night & Day

I wanted to share something I had never tried before, thinking what do I have to loose? The answer to that, simply, was… nothing at all.

I recently switched my entire diet to a fully plant based one and instantly noticed drops in my everyday pain levels of around 5, that I have lived with my entire life, that are now down are a 1. A 1!

I had truly given up on the thought of of ever being pain free and now it may actually be within my grasp.

Now, I can’t speak for anyone else because i understand that everyone is different, aside from the 400 different variations of AMC. I do want to share with you what I have done and the results I have found.

I went fully pant based a few months ago by joining PurpleCarrot.com (@PurpleCarrotXO) so I could learn how to cook this way and get a better understanding of things. I also had friends recommend me adding things like Chia & Flax Seeds to my diet.

I also watched What The Health on Netflix which began to validate what I was learning to be true. So without even thinking about it, I made the switch because I was not convinced that Big-Pharm was the way to go. There had to be a healthier way to alleviate the physical pain i was in that didn’t involve prescriptions and this was something I had never tried.

I instantly noticed a drop in pain levels, so much so, I stopped taking inflammatory meds & tramadol for pain. I had more energy, I wasn’t tired after eating and actually enjoyed cooking these new meals. Now it may seem extreme to simply switch over instantly but when I make a decision, I do it. I was also going to PT at Specialized PT twice a week and they highly commended me on switching to this diet and said the improvements for my body type will be tremendous and they have been.

So for those who are still living in pain and on meds, I highly recommend doing the research, check it out for yourself. You honestly have nothing to loose accept taking medications and beginning to live pain free.
