Pain, Pain Go Away

Images
Many people suffer from chronic pain, keeping them from the active lifestyle they desire.  While by no means a prescription, there are a few things that may be aggravating your symptoms.
Vitamin D Deficiency - Vitamin D helps in the synthesis of parathyroid hormone, which serves to extract phosphates, especially calcium phosphate, from the bones.
Lack of Magnesium - Magnesium helps with proper muscle functioning.  Magnesium depletion can be caused by many factors. A few of which are; sleep disturbances, lack of sleep, high levels of stress, a decrease in estrogen during menopause.
Gluten Intolerance - Negative auto-immune response
Before embarking on any self diagnosis, start by requesting blood work. You may be deficient elsewhere, which could be causing you to not absorb your vitamins and minerals.  Find a practitioner who will listen to you, who is committed to finding the cause, not just treating the symptoms.
