Bad cramps, what do you do?

Question

Hey ladies, just wondering what everyone else does to help bad cramps go away. Aside from taking painkillers, any natural ideas that actually work? Sometimes I take a ginger bath because it warms you up from the inside and helps the cramps for a few hours. What do you do? 😃

Answer

The key is to prevent the cramps, not stop them while they're happening.

I am the type of person that never takes medicine unless my life is at risk or the pain is too much. The strongest medicine I have in my home is Advil. Everything else I use would be my essential oils.

Start this today! Take a lemon each day and squeeze out at least 4 tablespoons of juice. Drink a cup of warm lemon water (filtered) both morning (before eating anything) and night (before bed, after eating) with 2 tablespoons of lemon juice for each cup. You'll have a total of 4 tablespoons of lemon juice daily. This is the recommended amount you should have daily.

Eat more veggies. Cut out sodas, sugary drinks and stick with water (filtered water). I've had a pain free period for 8 months. All the women in my family have endometriosis which can cause extruiating cramps. I dealt with it for 6 years until I realized I needed to treat my body better and the lemon cleanses your organs.

Peppermint oil is nature's icyhot. Put this on your lower abdomen and it should help relieve some pain.
