How Fibromyalgia and Obesity are Connected
Everyone knows that being healthy is critical for those who are suffering from protracted discomfort and fibromyalgia. This message is all over my Facebook page, Twitter, and my blog content BUT now there's more explanation! Eating healthy with moving and stretching is SO important to relieving your daily pain!
A new study in The Journal of Pain reports there's a close association between obesity and disability in fibro patients!
Researchers hypothesised that obesity adds to the load of the condition. After evaluating 215 fibromyalgia patients (who were given one or two physical tests and after assessing heart rates and sleep quality), they revealed that they were correct.
The authors of the study noted that (as consistent with prior studies) obesity is not unusual among those with fibromyalgia. Additionally , overweight patients in this research showed increased discomfort sensitivity and diminished pliability in the lower body. These same patients also showed reduced strength.
Whoa! Not only does being overweight damage flexibility and reduce strength and it shows that the patient has increased discomfort sensitiveness!
The study goes on to say that, "recent evidence suggests weight loss improves fibromyalgia symptoms, perhaps coming from patients adopting healthier life-styles and taking more positive angles toward symptom management, and overall quality of life."
Okay, so now we see that being fat has a negative result on your fibromyalgia. The following step is to work out what to do to start to work toward a happier and healthier life!
Stop targeting fibromyalgia and start targeting your health!
When you begin focusing on your fitness you can start making a difference in your health at this time!
Begin to cut out bad and repellent foods and kick your soda pop habit - That stuff is POISONING your body. When you eat better, you feel better.
Start moving and stretching each day! I know, this sounds virtually impossible but start small and work your way up. You do not have to run a marathon - Just work up a sweat everyday. That may be by walking down the steps or strolling round the block. It doesn't matter what you do, so long as your building up a sweat. Be certain to not go overboard either! Your body might be sore at the start but keep doing a touch more each time you move and stretch! It will pay off!
