Radio Naturopath Episode 407: Natural Care for Herniated Discs

This week, I'm still talking about backs and back pain, and focusing on the herniated disc. There's still lots you can do short of getting conventional medicine care. Massage, chiropractic, stretches, physical therapy, acupuncture, all kinds of supplements. Float tanks, swimming and other water exercises. And lots of core exercises to prevent it from happening again! Lots of nerve-healing supplements, like B vitamins, acetyl-l-carnitine, and phosphatidylserine. The thing that is the hardest: PATIENCE and time, to do it right, child! (a little Wilburys there)

Monounsaturated fats in general are great. We also wander over to look at how the popular Keto Diet works, with all that fat. I also have a little bursitis in my knee so you should know how to help that too. And how to treat and prevent KIDNEY STONES, ow! DRINK MORE WATER.
