: Diffinately follow a natural approach to healing. Here are some suggestions that Swampmugger and I recommend.
: 1. Go on a 7 day raw food diet (nothing cooked), followed by a 3 day cleansing fast.(Ask me if you need the info on the fast) NO processed foods or sugar!
: 2. When in physical therapy, don't push yourself too hard or too long, STOP when it hurts!
: 3. The next items are essential for healing of tendons, repairing connective tissues and helps with proper muscular function!
: Calcium 1500 mg daily
: Magnesium 750 mg daily
: Free Form Amino Acids
: Vitamins A, C, and E
: Beta Carotene
: Selenium
: Zinc and Copper
: Anti - inflamatories that help speed up healing are:
: Boswellia (according to bottle directions)
: Bromelain (also eat lots of organic pineapple as it is rich in Bromelain)
: All of the above items named can be purchased at a health food store.
