Anxiety Support Group
Anxiety is a physical condition marked by intense and persistent feelings of distress, fear, angst or dread. General anxiety caused by routine day-to-day stresses usually passes quickly and is experienced by almost everyone at one time or another. However, such feelings that linger over time and are very difficult to cope with, and which lack a clear cause, may indicate...
I have changed my diet completely, lost 150 pounds and have kept it off for 3 years.
I am now med free. No longer diabetic. My cholesterol and blood pressure are all normal as well. AND TO BOOT......I'M ANXIETY FREE!!!!!!
I suffered from anxiety for 54 out of 57 years of my life and I am happy to say I am free!!!!
I am dairy free. Sugar free with the exception of one piece of dark chocolate once a day. I'm gluten free and eat non GMO foods as well as supplements.
I exercise 5-7 times a week and meditate.
I drink plenty of fresh water and work on positive thinking.
I also eliminated bad relationships and changed jobs. I know job change isn't possible for everyone, but I found my niche' and am making it work :)
Change didn't happen over night, but I kept at it. I've made it a lifestyle and I have embraced it.
I'm not the same person I was when I started this journey........I'm so much better and I love it!
Diet has soooo much to do with everything that pertains to well being.
However, we have choices and if we choose poor food for long enough, we get diseases and worst of all.......it screws up our digestion. You have to get your digestive system working first and take good quality supplements (check with your doctor first and do not go off your pharma meds until you work with a professional first....personally, I prefer a holistic doctor, but again.....that is just me).
I am very sensitive to pharma meds and they caused more problems than they helped, so that is why I turned to alternative. However, my digestive system was trashed from the diabetes and pharma meds.
It has been a two year journey with my digestion problem, but I am seeing daylight and am finally able to digest most foods now......healthy foods.
Three cuplrits that robb your body of vital nutrients and cause anxiety AND disease is 1.sugar (fake AND real). 2. GMO foods (this is at most restaurants and prepackaged foods). 3. Gluten of any kind (it's in more than just wheat products).
Soda also is bad for you.
All these things interupt the neuro transmittors in our brain and as well as vital vitamins and minerals our body and brain need to work properly.....hence, causing anxiety and disease.
No.....I'm not a doctor, but I've done extensive research and have tried this out on myself and it is working.
It is not a quick fix.....it takes several weeks to see a big enough difference.....but pharma meds take about the same time.
My only hope is that if one person believes what I say here and puts in the work and gets better, then it is worth my time spent sharing what I know through experience and knowledge.
Doctors only get about 7 hours in med school on nutrition and diet. They only regurgitate what they learn in a book and sadly.....they are being misinformed.
The Standard American Diet (SAD)which is backed my the AMA and ADA is wrong, wrong, wrong!
Low carb and high fat (the good fats) or a Keto diet are right on spot if you are looking for the perfect solution for tackling any health issue.
Wishing everyone here a healthy happy life.....peace and light sent to all!
