Should this be a true statement? Back Injury = Aleve + Bone Broth?


Recommended Posts

Four days into my first Whole30 (I'm on day 18 now), I pulled a muscle in my back. I've aggravated it twice more since then... I'm all fueled up with nowhere to go! 

 

At any rate, my doctor prescribed me stronger Aleve which I take 2x/day. I read in the book that this is not great for the gut, so I'm really working to incorporate the healing bone broth into my days. Is this a good strategy? Also, does it fit onto the meal template? Or is like a freebie? Drink it anytime? Thanks!

Yep, NSAIDs are known to be pretty hard on the stomach so definitely try to take them WITH food rather than on an empty stomach.

The bone broth I'd be inclined to drink along with my meals as I would tea or coffee.

Lots of folk say it's the best way to start the day.

Make sure you are not doing anything to aggravate your back further - no heavy lifting, no baths (it's not a great position for the spine), and no pulling motions like vacuuming - you'll heal a whole lot faster!
