Heal Tendonitis At Home

Tendon Supplements aren't really a big topic, even though there is an epidemic of various kinds of tendonitis type injury and pain out happening in the U.S.

Take a look at Major League Baseball pitchers. Management has an entire set of rules around managing pitchers in the hopes of avoiding injury. It's not rare, it's the norm.

Nowadays, everybody accepts that Tendonitis and Carpal Tunnel are possible and likely, and that they are hard if not impossible to get rid of.

Yet nobody is asking why our bodies are taking so much damage.

Here's one partial theory.

Our Current, Normal Diets
Don't Contain Enough Nutrition
To Keep Our Bodies Strong

We used to eat -ALL- the animal. Now we only eat the steak cuts.

We used to eat heart, liver, adrenal glands, brains, eyeballs, tongue, etc.

From Caveman up to 60ish years ago, we ate everything of the animal that we possibly could.

Cavemen never worried about Tendon supplements. And they probably didn't make soup....but I'm sure they swallowed down every every morsel they could get, and sucked the marrow from the bones of the meals.

As soon as we learned to cook and make cooking pots, we made bone soups and bone broths, concoctions of all sorts of parts, and bone and marrow, and let them cook for long periods of time to leech the nutrients out into.

What do we eat now?

Meat, but just the pure meat cuts, and nothing of the rest. (Ok, except hot dogs, they are full of all sorts of left over bodyparts)

Processed foods. Sugar.

Crops are full of pesticides and are lacking nutrition because the soil they grow in has been so overused that there is little vital nutrients in the dirt for the plants to absorb.

It really is NO SURPRISE that high school athletes, college athletes, normal office workers of various ages, and 22 and 50 year old athletes all get various kinds of Tendonopathy, Tendonitis, and tendon injury.

Even little league baseball players are becoming a concern due to Tenodonitis pain and injuries they are getting.

Aren't Tendons Strong As They Should Be?

Are as strong as they SHOULD be? Are they as strong as they COULD be?

But the connective tissue structures of our body are only as strong as their potential IF they have the appropriate building blocks of protein and collagen.

Individual protein fibers form together to make collagen, which forms together to make various kinds of connective tissue structures.

If you have Tendonitis, one possible factor at play is that you have some level of collagen deficiency.

And/or a deficiency of minerals or other nutrients.

And if you are like most people in the U.S., you certainly aren't getting as much high quality, nutrient dense tendon supplements naturally from your diet as you could be.

Some people may argue this, but if you start to look into it....

If you have a problem with getting Tendonitis in different spots and have a hard time healing, it's a safe bet that you are more collagen deficient and/or nutrient than you want to be.

If you aren't already, it's time to consider finding good tendon supplements. Especially if you have tendonitis pain.

Let's Talk About Collagen

Whether you have a strong collagen structure, or a weak collagen structure, it depends on the nutrients that you take in.

There are many types of collagen (29), but we are mainly speaking here about Collagen Type 1 and Type 2 Collagen, which makes up the vast majority of the body's connective tissue.

Connective tissue literally holds us together. The stronger it is, the better it can do it's job without breaking down, or getting irritated or injured.

Our diets contain much less collagen than traditional diets did. Once pasteurization, processed foods, and big supermarkets came into our culture, nutrition started going out.

In the old days, our diets naturally contained tendon supplements that our bodies needed and used.

And we're paying the price on a variety of levels:

We don't heal as fast, we injure more easily, and we break down faster and younger as we age.

70 year olds can be and should be upright, strong, and active. Vast numbers of 50 year olds in our culture have a hard time getting onto their feet in the morning, and live in some amount of physical pain.

Does having enough protein intake equal never getting Tendonitis? No.

If you eat enough protein and necessary mineral nutrients, you can have a strong, healthy body. And if your Tendonitis has anything to do with insufficient protein/mineral intake, certainly you will heal better, heal faster, and avoid injury better.

Our Bodies Are Constantly Breaking Down

Collagen regeneration is constantly taking place. As you slowly get Tendonitis your body constantly rebuilds the collagen structure of the tendon and surrounding connective tissue.

If you have a collagen deficiency, your body -can't- rebuild the collagen structure. It doesn't have enough building blocks.

This is partly why people get Tendonitis Injury, and stay injured. Your body literally won't heal if it doesn't have the right collagen building blocks to reform the damaged collagen structure.

In other words, no bricks, no wall. No steel, no bridge.

Not enough protein and collagen in, no tendon.

I have worked with people with Tendonitis and/or Whiplash, and they just wouldn't heal. Until months of pain and suffering later, they finally took my suggestion and increased their protein and collagen intake. And within a week their pain was gone.

Imagine that!! They finally gave their body what it needed.

(Take note: Do what I say and you will feel better!)

How To Help Heal Your Tendonitis Fast
With Tendon Supplements

I could talk about collagen powders, and various fancy tendon supplements that are out on the market.

But I'm only going to talk about the best tendon supplements. And there really is only one 'best'.

The Best Tendon Supplement definition is a supplement that:

A. Works.
B. Is Cheap.
C. Is healthy for you and good for your body.
D. Really Works.

It's all about the basics. Almost always, basics work best.

So let's talk about Essential Bone Broth.

As a collagen supplement, it doesn't get any better than Essential Bone Broth.

While doctors and scientists love prescription medications and drugs, they often scoff at the thought of possible benefit from natural nutrition.

The bone of healthy cows is one of the best sources of collagen we can use as a collagen supplement.

Bone Broth contains all the tendon supplements that you need to have strong, healthy, injury-proof tendons, ligaments, cartilage, and connective tissue.

Said another way, along with amino acids and protein fibers, bone broth contains minerals in a form the body can easily absorb, including calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, silicon, sulphur, and trace minerals.

It contains the broken down material from cartilage and tendons--stuff like chondroitin sulphates and glucosamine, now sold as expensive supplements for arthritis and joint pain.

It is cheap. It is natural. It is everything that your body needs.

If you want to, you can buy expensive glucosamine collagen and/or chondroitin sulfate supplements, in various combinations and varieties of such. Not cheap. And you don't really know what's in it.

You do know exactly what's in bone broth.

I'll send you to the recipe in just a moment, but let's talk about it for a moment.

Bone Broth Is The Best
Of All The Tendon Supplements

You can also find these packaged, with or without meat on them.

You throw them in a big pot of water. And let them simmer for 12-48 hours, depending.

This sucks all the nutritional goodness out of the bones and marrow and puts it into the broth.

Takes a bit of time, but almost no effort.

Then, you can make soup. You can make stew. You can pour the broth over rice, or add it to rice as the rice cooks so it will be absorbed.

I fry three eggs in 6 tablespoons of cold broth (that is stored in the fridge). Tasty.

You can consider it a Collagen Drink. Not a sports drink so much as a warm, tasty broth specifically designed to keep tendons strong, and to heal tendonitis.

Consider it a nutritional supplement. You eat it instead of taking it in pill form.

Are you an athlete and don't like to cook? Too bad. Get over it. Or find a neighbor grandma type to cook it for you. (She needs it too to keep her bones strong, and her hair long and healthy.)

Or just put it in a crock pot and ignore it for a night or two.

Are you an office worker and don't have time to cook? That's why you are hurting in the first place.

Food and nutrition has become such a neglected aspect of our lives. And we are paying for it with injury and pain.

Athlete, office worker, or grandma, you don't like having injury and ongoing tendonitis pain, do you?

You can stay in pain if you want, I'm just giving you the recipe.

Or, you can eat some yummy, hearty food that will support you having happy, healthy life.
