If you suffer from pain on a daily basis, there is hope!

If you suffer from pain on a daily basis, there is hope!

 

I am here to tell you that if you suffer from pain on a daily basis, there is hope!  I am LIVING PROOF!  You do not have to live like that any longer.  I have been there and told my only hope was surgery.  Well, I did NOT have surgery and I am completely PAIN-FREE TODAY!!

I felt the need to tell my story to you....because I feel this could help a lot of you out there. Anyone that lives with pain on a daily basis...or you know someone that does...PLEASE KEEPING READING! This could change your life or someone else's life!

In 2010, my husband, my youngest son Shane and I were in a bad accident, due to some young kid texting, while he was driving.


It seriously changed our lives. Shane has had 3 surgeries on his left leg and has been left with a terrible scar, that he has to live with for the rest of his life. My husband needs back surgery as a result, to replace some damaged discs in his lower spine. Before the accident...I had really gotten on a great road to good health. I was working out every day, eating healthy and loving my life. I received a terrible head injury, as well as my neck was injured. The head injury affected my short term thinking and the neck injury caused awful pain, that lasted from the time that I woke up, until the time that I went to bed. I was like a broken record every single day. I would complain about my neck pain ALL DAY LONG! I know that my husband had to have gotten sick and tired of hearing about it. But the neck pain was really ruining my quality of life. I felt like I was just existing. I could not take Pain Medications, because my head was in a constant kind of BRAIN FOG already, due to the head injury. Plus, I knew the damage that Pain Meds can do to the insides of your body. They can damage your stomach, kidney and liver. So that was not an option, but neither was living with this awful pain, that had made daily life such a struggle for me.


I happened to find my cousin Kelly online and we got to talking and she told me about Shakeology. I tried it and I have to tell you, within 2 weeks of replacing my breakfast with the Shakeology Meal Replacement Shake every day, I realized, that I had not even thought about my neck pain in the past couple of days. What??? How could this be? Unbelievable! I had also maintained a clean healthy way of eating, along with the Shakeology. I did not and do not spend a fortune on groceries. So anyone can eat a clean healthy diet on a budget! ANYONE! If you don't have a clue how to eat clean and healthy, just ask!  I will totally help you! There are NO EXCUSES for not eating healthy. NONE!  Another exciting benefit I was finding from the Shakeology is that my brain felt crisp and clear! Something I had not experienced in almost 3 years, since our accident. After the first 30 days of using Shakeology, I realized that this Healthy Shake had given me my life back. This was like hitting the lottery.

So, if you or anyone you know suffers from pain, PLEASE...you do NOT have to live like that. Why suffer any longer? Shakeology is just what the doctor ordered! And it will not do any damage to the insides of your body. Along with being a weight loss accelerator (a welcome bonus for me...woo hooo), it is a meal replacement shake that fights disease. Take your life back into your hands. Stop the Suffering TODAY! I am so very thankful to Kelly for telling me about Shakeology and for me being willing to take that chance. I knew that it had a 30 day money-back guarantee with the Shakeology, so I had NOTHING to lose and EVERYTHING to gain. I figured if it didn't help me, then I would just send the empty bag back to them after 30 days and get my money back, since that was an option. Becoming a coach, has made Shakeology even more affordable for me too. My shakes come out to $3.23 a day. A little more than $3 a day to live pain free and have crisp clear thinking? WOW! Without a coach's account, it is just a little more than $4 a day, in exchange for feeling better than you EVER have in your entire life. STOP destroying the inside of your body with those pain pills. My husband shattered his leg 10 years ago and they had him on pain medication for a long time. As a result, his liver is damaged and he is on a liver transplant list, fighting for his life. If only I had known about Shakeology back then, he would NOT be an ill man.

But now that I know that Shakeology is LIQUID GOLD and that can potentially save lives, I HAVE to share this with you. It truly SAVED MY LIFE! So if you or anyone you know suffers with pain...PLEASE let me help you! I say this with tears in my eyes, as I know how awful it is to suffer like that...LET ME HELP YOU TODAY! I am here for you and I care and I will do everything I can to help you, to be free from the pain that has taken over your body, if you will let me. How bad do you want to stop feeling like this? I am throwing you a life line. GRAB IT!

If you would have told me 3 years ago, when I was suffering with such terrible pain, that I would be PAIN-FREE and be able to start and finish P90X, I would have thought you were crazy. Ha Ha! But guess what? I just finished P90X. Life is AMAZING and I am just about to turn 47. I am in the best shape of my life. So no matter how young or old you are, you CAN DO THIS! I am living proof. I believe I was spared in the accident, to be here to help YOU to lead a better quality of life, than you ever thought possible.

Don't just take my word for it! Shakeology comes with a 30 day money back guarantee. Try Shakeology for 30 days. If you do not feel healthier, then you can get your money back, even if the bag is empty. Get in touch with me TODAY!!

20 Painkillers in your Kitchen


A GREAT ALTERNATIVE TO TAKING MEDICATION!
20 Painkillers in Your Kitchen

Make muscle pain a memory with ginger
When Danish researchers asked achy people to jazz up their diets with ginger, it eased muscle and joint pain, swelling and stiffness for up to 63 percent of them within two months. Experts credit ginger’s potent compounds called gingerols, which prevent the production of pain-triggering hormones. The study-recommended dose: Add at least 1 teaspoon of dried ginger or 2 teaspoons of chopped ginger to meals daily.

Cure a toothache with cloves
Got a toothache and can’t get to the dentist? Gently chewing on a clove can ease tooth pain and gum inflammation for two hours straight, say UCLA researchers. Experts point to a natural compound in cloves called eugenol, a powerful, natural anesthetic. Bonus: Sprinkling a ¼ teaspoon of ground cloves on meals daily may also protect your ticker. Scientists say this simple action helps stabilize blood sugar, plus dampen production of artery-clogging cholesterol in as little as three weeks.

Heal heartburn with cider vinegar
Sip 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar mixed with 8 ounces of water before every meal, and experts say you could shut down painful bouts of heartburn in as little as 24 hours. “Cider vinegar is rich in malic and tartaric acids, powerful digestive aids that speed the breakdown of fats and proteins so your stomach can empty quickly, before food washes up into the esophagus, triggering heartburn pain,” explains Joseph Brasco, M.D., a gastroenterologist at the Center for Colon and Digestive Diseases in Huntsville, AL.

Erase earaches with garlic
Painful ear infections drive millions of Americans to doctors’ offices every year. To cure one fast, just place two drops of warm garlic oil into your aching ear twice daily for five days. This simple treatment can clear up ear infections faster than prescription meds, say experts at the University of New Mexico School of Medicine. Scientists say garlic’s active ingredients (germanium, selenium, and sulfur compounds) are naturally toxic to dozens of different pain-causing bacteria. To whip up your own garlic oil gently simmer three cloves of crushed garlic in a half a cup of extra virgin olive oil for two minutes, strain, then refrigerate for up to two weeks, suggests Teresa Graedon, Ph.D., co-author of the book, Best Choices From The People’s Pharmacy. For an optimal experience, warm this mix slightly before using so the liquid will feel soothing in your ear canal.

Chase away joint and headache pain with cherries
Latest studies show that at least one in four women is struggling with arthritis, gout or chronic headaches. If you’re one of them, a daily bowl of cherries could ease your ache, without the stomach upset so often triggered by today’s painkillers, say researchers at East Lansing ’s Michigan State University . Their research reveals that anthocyanins, the compounds that give cherries their brilliant red color, are anti-inflammatories 10 times stronger than ibuprofen and aspirin. “Anthocyanins help shut down the powerful enzymes that kick-start tissue inflammation, so they can prevent, as well as treat, many different kinds of pain,” explains Muraleedharan Nair, Ph.D., professor of food science at Michigan State University . His advice: Enjoy 20 cherries (fresh, frozen or dried) daily, then continue until your pain disappears.

Fight tummy troubles with fish
Indigestion, irritable bowel syndrome, inflammatory bowel diseases...if your belly always seems to be in an uproar, try munching 18 ounces of fish weekly to ease your misery. Repeated studies show that the fatty acids in fish, called EPA and DHA, can significantly reduce intestinal inflammation, cramping and belly pain and, in some cases, provide as much relief as corticosteroids and other prescription meds. “EPA and DHA are powerful, natural, side effect-free anti-inflammatories, that can dramatically improve the function of the entire gastrointestinal tract,” explains biological chemist Barry Sears, Ph.D., president of the Inflammation Research Foundation in Marblehead , MA . For best results, look for oily fish like salmon, sardines, tuna, mackerel, trout and herring.

Prevent PMS with yogurt
Up to 80 percent of women will struggle with premenstrual syndrome and its uncomfortable symptoms, report Yale researchers. The reason: Their nervous systems are sensitive to the ups and downs in estrogen and progesterone that occur naturally every month. But snacking on 2 cups of yogurt a day can slash these symptoms by 48 percent, say researchers at New York ’s Columbia University . “Yogurt is rich in calcium, a mineral that naturally calms the nervous system, preventing painful symptoms even when hormones are in flux,” explains Mary Jane Minkin, M.D., a professor of gynecology at Yale University .

Tame chronic pain with turmeric
Studies show turmeric, a popular East Indian spice, is actually three times more effective at easing pain than aspirin, ibuprofen or naproxen, plus it can help relieve chronic pain for 50 percent of people struggling with arthritis and even fibromyalgia, according to Cornell researchers. That’s because turmeric’s active ingredient, curcumin, naturally shuts down cyclooxygenase 2, an enzyme that churns out a stream of pain-producing hormones, explains nutrition researcher Julian Whitaker, M.D. and author of the book, Reversing Diabetes. The study-recommended dose: Sprinkle 1/4 teaspoon of this spice daily onto any rice, poultry, meat or vegetable dish.

End endometrial pain with oats
The ticket to soothing endometriosis pain could be a daily bowl of oatmeal. Endometriosis occurs when little bits of the uterine lining detach and grow outside of the uterus. Experts say these migrating cells can turn menstruation into a misery, causing so much inflammation that they trigger severe cramping during your period, plus a heavy ache that drags on all month long. Fortunately, scientists say opting for a diet rich in oats can help reduce endometrial pain for up to 60 percent of women within six months. That’s because oats don’t contain gluten, a trouble-making protein that triggers inflammation in many women, making endometriosis difficult to bear, explains Peter Green, M.D., professor of medicine at Colombia University .

Soothe foot pain with salt
Experts say at least six million Americans develop painful ingrown toenails each year. But regularly soaking ingrown nails in warm salt water baths can cure these painful infections within four days, say scientists at California ’s Stanford University . The salt in the mix naturally nixes inflammation, plus it’s anti-bacterial, so it quickly destroys the germs that cause swelling and pain. Just mix 1 teaspoon of salt into each cup of water, heat to the warmest temperature that you can comfortably stand, and then soak the affected foot area for 20 minutes twice daily, until your infection subsides.

Prevent digestive upsets with pineapple
Got gas? One cup of fresh pineapple daily can cut painful bloating within 72 hours, say researchers at California ’s Stanford University . That's because pineapple is natually packed with proteolytic enzymes, digestive aids that help speed the breakdown of pain-causing proteins in the stomach and small intestine, say USDA researchers.

Relax painful muscles with peppermint
Suffering from tight, sore muscles? Stubborn knots can hang around for months if they aren’t properly treated, says naturopath Mark Stengler, N.D., author of the book, The Natural Physician’s Healing Therapies. His advice: Three times each week, soak in a warm tub scented with 10 drops of peppermint oil. The warm water will relax your muscles, while the peppermint oil will naturally soothe your nerves -- a combo that can ease muscle cramping 25 percent more effectively than over-the-counter painkillers, and cut the frequency of future flare-ups in half, says Stengler.

Give your back some TLC with grapes
Got an achy back? Grapes could be the ticket to a speedy recovery. Recent studies at Ohio State University suggest eating a heaping cup of grapes daily can relax tight blood vessels, significantly improving blood flow to damaged back tissues (and often within three hours of enjoying the first bowl). That’s great news because your back’s vertebrae and shock-absorbing discs are completely dependent on nearby blood vessels to bring them healing nutrients and oxygen, so improving blood flow is essential for healing damaged back tissue, says Stengler.

Wash away pain injuries with water
Whether it’s your feet, your knees or your shoulders that are throbbing, experts at New York ’s Manhattan College , say you could kick-start your recovery in one week just by drinking eight 8-ounce glasses of water daily. Why? Experts say water dilutes, and then helps flush out, histamine, a pain-triggering compound produced by injured tissues. “Plus water is a key building block of the cartilage that cushions the ends of your bones, your joints’ lubricating fluid, and the soft discs in your spine,” adds Susan M. Kleiner, Ph.D., author of the book, The Good Mood Diet. “And when these tissues are well-hydrated, they can move and glide over each other without causing pain.” One caveat: Be sure to measure your drinking glasses to find out how large they really are before you start sipping, she says. Today’s juice glasses often hold more than 12 ounces, which means five servings could be enough to meet your daily goal.

Heal sinus problems with horseradish
Latest studies show sinusitis is the nation’s number one chronic health problem. And this condition doesn’t just spur congestion and facial pain, it also makes sufferers six times more likely to feel achy all-over. Horseradish to the rescue! According to German researchers, this eye-watering condiment naturally revs up blood flow to the sinus cavities, helping to open and drain clogged sinuses and heal sinus infections more quickly than decongestant sprays do. The study-recommended dose: One teaspoon twice daily (either on its own, or used as a sandwich or meat topping) until symptoms clear.

Beat bladder infections with blueberries
Eating 1 cup of blueberries daily, whether you opt for them fresh, frozen or in juice form, can cut your risk of a urinary tract infection (UTIs) by 60 percent, according to researchers at New Jersey’s Rutgers University. That's because blueberries are loaded with tannins, plant compounds that wrap around problem-causing bacteria in the bladder, so they can’t get a toehold and create an infection, explains Amy Howell, Ph.D. a scientist at Rutgers University .

Heal mouth sores with honey
Dab painful canker and cold sores with unpasteurized honey four times daily until these skin woes disappear, and they’ll heal 43 percent faster than if you use a prescription cream, say researchers at the Dubai Specialized Medical Center in the United Arab Emirates . Raw honey’s natural enzymes zap inflammation, destroy invading viruses and speed the healing of damaged tissues, say the study authors.

Fight breast pain with flax
In one recent study, adding 3 tablespoons of ground flax to their daily diet eased breast soreness for one in three women within 12 weeks. Scientists credit flax’s phytoestrogens, natural plant compounds that prevent the estrogen spikes that can trigger breast pain. More good news: You don’t have to be a master baker to sneak this healthy seed into your diet. Just sprinkle ground flax on oatmeal, yogurt, applesauce or add it to smoothies and veggie dips.

Cure migraines with coffee
Prone to migraines? Try muscling-up your painkiller with a coffee chaser. Whatever over-the-counter pain med you prefer, researchers at the National Headache Foundation say washing it down with a strong 12- ounce cup of coffee will boost the effectiveness of your medication by 40 percent or more. Experts say caffeine stimulates the stomach lining to absorb painkillers more quickly and more effectively.

Tame leg cramps with tomato juice
At least one in five people regularly struggle with leg cramps. The culprit? Potassium deficiencies, which occur when this mineral is flushed out by diuretics, caffeinated beverages or heavy perspiration during exercise. But sip 10 ounces of potassium-rich tomato juice daily and you'll not only speed your recovery, you'll reduce your risk of painful cramp flare-ups in as little as 10 days, say UCLA researchers.
