Fruit! The cure for what ails me??
I have been back in a lot of pain of late. Joints very inflamed from previous injury and current hard and heavy training. It's a dialy thing and honestly soemthing someone with my past just has to deal with on some level but over the past month it has gotten bad.
Fruit Possibly???
I was pondering my joint pain and stiffness thinking What the hell did I change from weeks ago that has me in such a bad way now? The only thing I came up with is fruit. I was eating literally 8-10 servings a day, several whole pineapple a week ( which Travis Gordon then reminded me has high levels of Bromelain an aggressive Protease. Protease being needed to handle inflammation naturally) mango, apples and strawberries by the bushel to name a few. Then I just stopped for no particular reason at all. Looking back it was about that time I got inflamed as hell.
I am upping my fruit in take drastically again NOW! I'm Headed to the market to become a fruit junkie once again. We'll see what comes of it and I'll let you know.

ANY choice or goal has negatives and positives, accept them and move on. I don’t want to hear your bitching about your life, you picked your own path, if you don’t like it change it.
The only thing we can truly control is ourselves. Pass on, educate, and lead by example.
Live life for the real stuff, not a bunch of "You Shoulds". Find out what you love, what you enjoy, and LIVE this life. It Very well could be the only one you get so don’t waste it, Live it. The only thing you might be able to keep is the memories from the experiences you took the chance to take part in.
Id rather live 100 years worth of like in 50 years then live to be 100 and only live 50 of them.

Papaya has a digestive enzyme in it also. Might want to add that in to your fruit assault to aid in digesting it all ;)
