Others may not be able to see your pain, but you know just how real it is. It’s all you can think about.We all want an instant solution, so you take your Advil or Tylenol like candy, but it’s only a temporary solution. Whether it leads to an ulcer, elevated liver enzymes or Dr. Google, at some point you realize this is not a long term plan.You’re on fire. You swap the pharmacy for the health food store and get some curcumin; yes, you are less likely to get an ulcer, but what of the incendiary conditions that led to all the pain and inflammation? Meet Dr. Benjamin Snider, ND whose insights into treating these all-consuming symptoms are rooted in his own personal experience with 10/10 pain that he endured as a child which were brushed off as “normal for an active kid”. Dr. Ben is a Naturopath’s Naturopath.
