Headache Free
By: Luis
Since my early around 13, I was diagnosed with chronic pain. They gave me no explanation and just a chart of neck stretches to which never helped. I got headaches every day and just learned to live with it. I would also grind my teeth at night but all they gave me was a mouth guard which I would chew through in a matter of weeks. Pain pills were useless at the time and actually made the pain worse until around the age of 22. I discovered Excedrin which felt like a miracle to me at the time. At first, I only took them once or twice a week depending on how heavy the headaches were. Eventually, I needed more and more. All through my 30s I felt exhausted, pain everywhere, not just my head and jaws, but my knees, my shoulders, my chest, basically everything. I could never focus on the way I wanted to. At the age of 38 to 39, things got weird. I felt like the tips of my fingers were being poked by needles. My legs were falling asleep when driving. My internal organs started to hurt. My urine was really dark. I developed ED. My pains were getting worse, even with the Excedrin. I was taking Excedrin everyday, sometimes twice a day. I knew I was gonna have to force myself to stop, but the pain was too much, so I couldn't see how I was gonna accomplish that. Then something hit me, what is in everything I eat? At first, I tried to look up the ingredients of Excedrin which I never found any clear information besides preservatives. Then I looked up things like Coke because I have been drinking it my whole life. Eventually, I found your videos and a couple of other guys who quickly convinced me to commit to the ketogenic diet. I swear to only tell the truth...in 1 week, all my problems were gone!! I had no clue really what I was doing, but anything you mentioned, I would focus on that. I never saw the day coming when I would wake up pain-free and energetic. I can now really focus without trying so hard. The best part is that I'm genuinely happy. I've had a really good last 10 years but now I can actually enjoy everything I've accomplished. I started on June 23 and it's now July 20, almost a full month that I haven't taking any pain pills! My wife asked me how long I'll be on this diet. She was thinking a month max. I told her I'll be on it forever! I highly appreciate what you do!!
