The Winter Secret For Drug-Free Pain Relief

I’ve always been an active guy – and I don’t have any plans to slow down.

Whether it’s hiking the Grand Canyon from rim to rim or hunting elk in the mountains, I never shy away from a challenge.

But let’s face it, I’m not getting any younger. (None of us are.)

And the last thing I want is to have pain get in my way.

That’s why I turn to a unique, drug-free, pain-relief solution I’ve been using for years.

It dials down pain and slashes inflammation. But the benefits don’t end there.

Because it also boosts hormone levels and immune function at the same time.

This pain-eraser is simple, fast, and 100 PERCENT FREE.

And winter just may be the perfect time to get started.

When I find myself battling aches and pains, my go-to is a cutting-edge treatment called cold thermogenesis.

It involves exposing yourself to extremely cold temperatures for a short period of time.

I’m telling you from personal experience that this powerful therapy can completely eliminate pain. And the science backs it up.

In a case study published in BMJ, a man suffering from chronic nerve pain reported COMPLETE pain relief after swimming in 51-degree water for just ONE MINUTE.

I don’t know ANY prescription drug that can boast those kinds of results!

Studies have also shown that cold therapy can ease depression symptoms, overcome fatigue, and improve recovery in athletes.

There’s a good reason for these impressive results: Cold therapy stimulates the release of pain-killing and mood-regulating chemicals in the brain.

But one of the best across-the-board benefits of this treatment is that it helps protect against disease.

That’s because thermogenesis boosts specific immune system cells. It also increases glutathione, one of the most potent antioxidants for protecting against disease—and even for helping prevent cancer.

Personally, I soak in ice-water baths at least once a week in order to get the benefits of cold thermogenesis. But there are numerous ways to engage in cold therapy without doing a polar bear plunge.

• Take a cold shower. Five to 10 minutes should be sufficient to bring your body temperature down.
• If it’s cold where you live now, just spend time outside. Just 10 minutes a day will help you achieve the benefits of cold thermogenesis. (Obviously, use common sense here and don’t go outside if temperatures have dipped to dangerous levels).
• Turn down your thermostat at night. Sixty-six degrees ought to do it (of course, no blankets!)

Whether you choose one of these options — or you decide to take the ice-water plunge—just know that the beginning is always the hardest part.

After that, your body adapts and it really isn’t so bad.

Before starting this type of therapy, it’s important to know that there are medical risks that could be associated with this type of cold exposure.

One of the most serious is that it can trigger a heart attack or stroke by raising blood pressure. So before taking the plunge, be sure to check with your doctor if you’re already at risk.
