On adopting a conventional lifestyle
On adopting a conventional lifestyleI was put on conventional medication and steroids for about six months, but sadly they didn't make much difference and I was still in bed most of the time. I decided to try something different, and began researching natural healing, which is how I came to change my diet. Overnight I gave up refined sugar, gluten, dairy, anything processed or refined and meat. It was a huge change from someone that lived off a delicious mixture of Ben and Jerry's Cookie Dough ice cream, mountains of Cadbury's Caramel chocolate, lots of fizzy pick-n-mix, some pesto pasta here and there, and millions of jars of peanut butter and strawberry jam eaten with a spoon! It took about eighteen months to go from essentially bed-bound to healthy and medication free! It was really the best decision I've ever made, and I truly feel amazing now. [Photo via]
