There was a point when the disease was onset; I never thought I'd rise from my bed again. Thoughts pervaded my mind wondering if I'd every work again, enjoy a family trip, or just keep up with the basic necessitates of life. When you’re in this type of condition, no one seems to truly understand unless they are experiencing the same symptoms. This forces you to take your health into your hands especially when doctors know so little yet about this phenomenon.

It took months to come up with the Phase I: Finding Relief system. Hours and hours spent on the Internet proved little results on each site. But, the more knowledge I gained, the easier it became to establish a plan that would address the symptoms of fibromyalgia; therefore, producing natural relief. This plan is especially comforting to those who have severe medicine sensitivities and need to keep their body from unnatural invaders. If you have sensitivities to antibiotics, anti fungal, or anti viral, this plan incorporates natural supplements to aid in strengthening the immune system, therefore; inhibiting basic sicknesses. Furthermore, If you  have difficulties and refuse to take prescription SSRI, SNRI, and Dopamine enhancers, there are natural relaxers incorporated into this plan.   Please be advised, this plan is not to replace your doctor's orders, but to gain a natural perspective in allowing your body to heal.

By allowing our bodies to heal naturally, we allow our own pain and immune systems to get busy and relieve us of toxins and imbalances that may be exacerbating the fibromyalgia. This plan is not for the palate that needs diversity. Rather it is anti allergy diet that begins and ends with the foundation of healthy eating until your body responds and begins to heal itself.

If you are in deep need from excrucitating, relentless pain try Phase I: Finding Relief today.

Those who deal with chronic pain issues need a bit more guidance than your average Joe.  For those sufferers, friends and family members often leave an unintentional deaf ear when needed the most.  It is not that these individuals intend to leave us astray, but rather they can't fully comprehend the daily tasks of trials and tribulations that leave us drained and anxiety ridden. 

It is at these times that prayer is most needed.  By allowing your life's path to be by guided by God takes the onus of control off your back.  As you well know, life offers no control.  If we have control for the moment, it is often fleeting, leaving us without a moment's notice.  After all, there are times in life we must go with the flow, drift on the river of intent, and hope it leads us to peaceful grounds.  By questioning and admonishing what is happening to us only leaves us with a life of regret.  And, as you well know, stress causes more pain, and that you can do without.  Put your pain in someone's arms, allow your life to be guided, ask God to come in, and pray each moment you need him most.  You will be amazed at how often your prayers are answered and peace is blessed upon you.

If you need some spiritual inspiration, God's Message Today offers a Monday's Blessing Blog.  I write this blog, too, as an outlet to aid my own spirituality.  I realized at the onset of this illness I needed a higher power to get through life's daily nuances prayer has amazing attributes and can help you battle that fire in our souls.

Dr. Mehmet Oz offers this advice, "Regardless of what motivates people to pray, there's no denying that a lot of people do it. One study shows that 36 percent of people use complementary and alternative medicine, but that number almost doubles when prayer is included in the definition. Those respondents say they use prayer for their own health and to help others. Even more telling: Of those people who said they prayed for
health reasons, 70 percent said that prayer was helpful. Why? Seems like it may work through several different mechanisms:- It relaxes: A form of meditation (no matter what your religious preferences), prayer helps to slow breathing and brain activity, and reduces heart rate and blood pressure. All relaxing, all good.
- It's positive: Let's face it. When you pray, you typically don't finish feeling like you want to rap somebody's ankles with a wooden spoon. You leave being filled with peace, joy, and other emotions that are worthy of being printed on holiday cocktail napkins. There's some evidence that these emotions lead to positive physiological responses throughout the entire body. Our stress hormone levels prepare for a peaceful existence. Perhaps more importantly, our immune system becomes less agitated so chemicals like proinflammatory cytokines, which act like kerosene on a fire, are not driving our joints and arteries to overreact to every biologic stress inside us. The result: A less inflamed, more beautiful place to live.- It's better than nothing (i.e. the placebo effect): I'd be remiss in my reporting if I didn't say that some of the benefits derived from prayer can simply be accounted for because the person feels like it's helping, whether it's physiologically helping or not. Placebo effects have been shown to account for 70 percent of the benefit
in some procedures. My stance here is that thinking you're doing something to help yourself is a big part of prayer anyway." He recommends reading You Being Beautiful.

I was reading Dr. Dantini's book The New Fibromyalgia Remedy: Stop Your Pain Now with an
Anti-Viral Drug Regimen when a thought hit me.  I've read so much literature on fibromyalgia at this point, and one recurring possibility is that many doctors feel fibromyalgia onset is due to an illness.  Furthermore, these illnesses begin as viruses, parasites, bacteria, yeast, or fungus that weaken the immune system; therefore, inhibiting the patient from full recovery.

Due to the fact I have medicine sensitivities, I searched the Internet for natural anti virals and antibiotics wondering if I implemented some of these tactics, would my symptoms lessen?  What I came across lead me to implement the following daily strategy.

1.  I begin my morning with Braggs Apple Cider Vinegar drink.  
2.  I have a lunch salad with fresh organic garlic slivered on top, one clove.
3.  I have my afternoon Fibromyalgia Smoothie with organic coconut oil.

Noticing I am dosing myself three times a day with a virus, parasite, bacteria, yeast, and fungus killing natural substance.  I could be taking a form of medicine in this same route, but, I have severe medicine sensitivities, and this routine causes NO side effects.  Dr. Dantini's regimen is noted as taking anywhere from six months to two years if using viral medications.  Taking this into consideration, I know I must be prepared to do this routine for as long as my symptoms continue. 

Most participants that begin this routine feel immediate results in only a couple of days.  Within weeks, you should notice pain subsiding.  It is a slow process and it has taken me months to feel pain free most days.  But, each month adds renewed vigor for life.

Adding garlic to your routine may enhance brighter pain-free days.  Of all  garlic's reputed medicinal benefits, perhaps  the best well known is its use as a natural antibiotic and antibacterial  agent with reports going back through history. There are even stories of it  being used to ward off the plague. It's not known how effective this was,  however there is some evidence that anthrax is sensitive to garlic. Some people  have even suggested that it might help in the fight against acne although that might be too much to hope for.

Garlic's antibiotic properties have been more extensively studied than some of its other reputed health benefits. Louis Pasteur examined garlic's use as an antibacterial back in the nineteenth century and showed how it killed bacteria under laboratory conditions. Numerous modern studies confirm that garlic has definite antibiotic properties and is effective against many bacteria, fungi and viruses. According to Wright State University, garlic is approximately one per cent as potent an antibiotic  as penicillin.

When slicing raw garlic on salads, do use organic.  Take note at the above picture at the top, this garlic is known to have a higher sulfuric content.
