  1. 3 Tips for Coping with Fibromyalgia

  2. Fibromyalgia syndrome affects the muscles and soft tissue. Symptoms include chronic muscle pain, fatigue, sleep problems, and painful tender points or trigger points, which can be relieved through medications, lifestyle changes and stress management.

  3. Fibromyalgia affects over 10 million people in the United States alone. About 90 percent are women. This debilitating disorder is often misdiagnosed, leading to complications. Most patients experience chronic fatigue, severe muscle pain, sleep problems, and mood swings. Studies indicate that fibromyalgia amplifies painful sensations by affecting the way your brain processes pain signals. People with rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, or those who may have experienced traumatic physical injuries are more likely to develop this disease.

  4. Help Relieve Fibromyalgia Currently, there is no permanent cure for fibromyalgia. However, there are ways to help relieve pain and minimize its impact on your daily life. Here are some helpful tips for coping with fibromyalgia:

  5. 1. Make Exercise a Habit Regular exercise lifts your mood and improves your body’s ability to handle pain. This explains why athletes have a higher pain tolerance than the general population. Don’t worry – it’s no need to spend hours in the gym to reap the benefits. Just make sure you stretch before exercising at least four times a week. Stay active throughout the day, walk the dog, play sports, practice yoga and stick to a workout regimen.

  6. 2. Avoid Stress Stress is often the culprit behind fibromyalgia flare-ups. Most patients experience greater pain and fatigue when they’re stressed, nervous, or anxious. They also have trouble sleeping and feel moody. The best thing you can do is to limit stress. Avoid situations and people that make you anxious. Try pilates, meditation, yoga, deep breathing, biofeedback, and other relaxation techniques to fight stress.

  7. 3. Change Your Diet A balanced diet makes it easier to control fibromyalgia symptoms and ease pain. Certain foods promote relaxation, improve sleep, and boost your energy levels. These include fresh fruit and vegetables, chia seeds, almonds, spirulina, herbs, and spices. Avoid processed and prepackaged food, dairy, aspartame, sugar, gluten, MSG and sodium nitrite, tomatoes, nightshade vegetables, corn.

  8. Also, you should eliminate caffeine from your diet. Replace coffee with Revert Tea to increase your energy and use NATUREAL Probiotic to enjoy better digestion. There are many other things you can do to manage this disorder. Make time for yourself and learn to say no. Reduce stress in your life and maintain good sleep hygiene; it is extremely vital that you get at least 7 hours of sleep daily. Moreover, listen to your body and know your limits.
