Arthritis and Muscular Disorders


Serves: 5

Ingredients

Directions:

As an arthritis sufferer, or as an individual suffering from muscular disorders, you may find that ideal gentle exercises* for you will include walking hip deep in water, gentle walking in place, and the twenty minute extra-gentle or low-level movements on your Enjoying the Freedom aerobics tapes. Remember to work closely with your doctor and physical therapist. Counsel with them regularly concerning the type, intensity, and amount of exercise you perform.
*Refer to pages 90 and 91 in your Lean & Free 2000 Plus book for more exercise suggestions for arthritic sufferers.
Stay with mainly "A" Choice desserts, "A" and "B" Choice main courses, and follow the Lean & Free menus completely. The moderate fat, salt, and protein intake, increase in fiber, and precise nutrient balance will gradually improve your sense of well-being. As your body increases in health, strength, and vitality, an optimal percentage of body fat may then follow.
Work closely with your doctor to monitor your need for pain medication. Many Lean & Free students have noticed a marked decrease in their need for medication. Some now require no medication at all and can move more freely and easily than they've been able to for years. (See Patty's story on page 193 in your Lean & Free 2000 Plus book.)
Remember you are nourishing, nurturing, and rebuilding your entire body. While caloric and nutrient starvation bears down and destroys muscles and other body tissues, Lean & Free rebuilds and strengthens, muscle and body tissue. And since muscle "curves" and fat "hangs,' which would you prefer? Curves of course!
