The Fibro Guy's Corner: A Fibromyalgia Podcast Adam Foster

A well-balanced diet is essential to our health, but with conditions such as Ehlers Danlos Syndrome (EDS) and Joint hypermobility syndrome, the topic of diet can be fraught with pitfalls and disappointment. What works for one may not necessarily work for others, and with co-morbidities such as Mast Cell Activation Disorder, slow gut mobility, and a whole host of other issues, finding a hypermobility diet that agrees with you as an individual can be somewhat daunting.

Join Adam on today's episode, as we discuss hypermobility and diets, and the issues surrounding it.

Adam, Jonny, and Hedda sit down to discuss what the research shows when it comes to being overweight for those in chronic pain.

Hello, and welcome to season 2, episode 1, of the Fibro Guys corner.

Last season was a great introduction for us to the world of podcasting, however, for this season, we are changing it up.

In today’s podcast, fibro guys Jonny and Hedda are talking about something they talk about a lot with their clients who are nearing the end of their recoveries whilst at the studios……and that is…..what the hell is normal?

When someone has been ill for so long, they tend to become very interoceptive and start to notice very subtle things or changes to their body.

Those who have never experience chronic pain, will likely brush over a calf muscle that’s randomly twitching, or indeed not even notice it. But, for those in pain or for our guys at the end of their recoveries, it’s hard for them to ascertain what is actually normal when it comes to the human body? Or even what they should expect when they are no longer in pain?

So, here is season 2, episode 1…enjoy!

If you want to know more about what we do, how we work, and why our clients are so successful compared to people why try other modalities, then head on over to www.thefibroguy.com

Likewise, if you have tried different modalities to recover and they haven’t worked for you, but they have for your friends, then you may want to download our free Ebook “Why do treatments work for some people, but not others” where we explain the complex variables behind why this happens.

If you have a specific question that you want a practitioner to answer on the podcast, then shoot us over an email at podcast@thefibroguy.com

Take it easy and thanks for listening..

Are cold showers good for Fibromyalgia? 

This question is possibly in the top 10 questions that frequent my inbox, and truth be told, the answer is dependent on a lot of different factors. There are numerous blog posts about the benefits of cold water therapy for athletes, men wanting more testosterone, and even those who are trying to beat depression in a nonpharmacological way. However, despite the abundance of information on the internet about cold showers, you will come up short when searching for an answer to: Are cold showers good for fibromyalgia?
