What healthy habits
have you adopted to put the odds of better M & H Disorders management in
your favor?
I’ve made a few diet and lifestyle changes over the past
couple years to help in my battle against chronic headaches. I’ve noticed a few
things that have seemed to help:
- Less Sodium. I’ve definitely cut back on my chip and fast food portions, which has meant giving up some of my favorites (Jalepeno Cheddar kettle chips), but the pros easily outweigh the cons.
- More Fruits and Veggies. I’m not much of a fruit or veggie eater, so eating healthier and getting my necessary daily servings has been difficult. Fortunately, there are alternatives like Naked smoothies that make consuming all the nutrition I need a little easier.
- No Smoking. This is a big one, for a multitude of reasons. I don’t think I really need to explain why.
- Less Stress. While I can’t always control the amount of stress in my life, I can control how I let it affect me and how to relax and handle situations. I’ve been working more on letting stressful situations slide off my shoulders, and breathing deeply to get through.
These are just a few of the things I’ve tried. What
lifestyle changes have you made in order to combat pain?
