Diet Helps Healing
When Jean was having trouble healing her back with Prolotherapy, we
recommended Diet Typing to ensure that her
body is able to support the
immune system
response that Prolotherapy was
stimulating. She was about 70% better than when she had started
Prolotherapy treatments, but she was ready to get to 100% pain free
living.
Jean had Diet Typing and met with the nutritionist on the same day. She
told the nutritionist that she had gained 8-10 pounds since her back
injury because it prevented her from exercising. She also had low energy
and had trouble getting through the day at work – she relied on one or
two Diet Cokes a day to get her through. She also mentioned that she was
always cold, loved the heat of the summer, and never sweated. These last
three bits of information made us suspect that Jean would for sure have
acidic
blood pH. When her results came back, we saw that we were right!
Not only was she acidic, but she also was a fast oxidizer, meaning Jean
would need more protein and fat – she was prescribed the
Otter Diet.
Jean’s diet of cereal, skim milk, complex carbs, fruit, and, of course,
diet coke, was about to change. Although she previously ate a moderate
amount of protein, she would have to make the shift to a high protein,
high fat diet.
When she returned for another
Prolotherapy treatment she also met with
the nutritionist. After reviewing her food diary it was clear that Jean
had made a big effort in increasing her protein intake. She was not
nearly as cold as she used to be and her knee and shoulder were almost
100% pain free. Her back was also improving and was about 50% pain free.
She was also experiencing increased energy during the day.
Jean was from a small town so she did not have access to organic foods,
so unfortunately she was not able to consistently consume organic food,
but she was able to cook more from scratch and enjoy the meals she was
eating. She still had not given up her Diet Coke, so that was her next
goal – to get rid of this chemical laden drink! Overall we were proud of
Jean for the changes that she made – it’s not always easy giving up the
high carbohydrate diet most people consume, but she was able to break
the barrier. Continuing on the
Otter Diet and eating as much fresh food
as possible was sure to support the healing of the rest of her joint
pain.
