let’s talk about how to get rid of

plantar fasciitis

and to do it instantly the problem with

this condition

is the treatments that people go through

they put you on pain medications

steroids which have massive side effects

they do needle injections

then you do orthotics i mean here’s the

thing i had flat feet

so i was raised on orthotics every

different orthotic

i had it it never helped let’s take a

mold of your flat foot and then so you

can walk on your flat foot and it was

until i got rid of my orthotics that i

started getting relief in my feet then

you have splinting at night holding your

foot in a certain position through the

night and there’s also botulism toxin

injections and if that doesn’t work we

have

faciatomy which sounds like lobotomy but

it’s taking out part of your fascia okay

so they cut the fascia

to release the tension

to

hopefully get rid of the pain well what

about the scar tissue that grows in

there and what about the root cause of

fasciitis

now i did a video on plantar fasciitis a

while ago and i’m just going to read you

a few of the comments

on this video because i taught them a

very counter-intuitive

technique to get rid of pain from

plantar fasciitis and you just have to

hear the results it’ll actually blow you

away and then i’m going to show you how

to do this technique all right check

this out i’ve tried everything i’m

sitting on my couch crying because

i did all the stretches

that i taught her of course and feel no

heel pain now i can’t remember the last

time i could walk without hobbling all

right next one unbelievable pain went

from a ten to a zero next day of doing

this years of pain

thank you next one i’ve had plantar

fasciitis for about three months my pain

level was about at eight when i watched

this video i was a little skeptical

because it goes against everything i

have watched with nothing to lose i

tried the exercises

my pain has dropped to a one all right

here’s another one like many others i

was skeptical i watched this and tried

the exercises i’ve had heel pain for

over

10 years there were days i literally

crawled around my house on all fours

from not being able to put my feet down

after one of these exercises my heels

feel better i went from an eight to a

two thank you for going against the

trend how about this one i did the

stretch 10 times while watching your

video my pain vanished thank you dr eric

all right so i’m going to show you how

to do this step one you have to rate

your pain from 0

to 10 10 being very severe

zero being no pain so go ahead and write

that down right now because we’re going

to re-rate that after this very simple

stretch all right this is what you need

to know

the absolute worst thing you can do

is to stretch

the fascia okay like in stretching your

calves this is what everyone does this

is how they do the splints they do it in

this stretch where your foot is going

upwards i mean think about it here you

have this inflamed fascia which is this

connective tissue underneath your foot

right it’s inflamed why would you ever

want to stretch it more there’s already

probably micro trauma going on and if

we’re going to stretch it more we’re

just going to re-injure it you never

want to stretch with your foot going up

like you’re stretching the calf

when you have plantar fasciitis what you

want to do is you want to stretch the

opposite muscles and i’m going to

explain why in a minute now there’s a

couple ways you can do this

what i recommend to start out with is

just sit with your foot crossed okay

you’re sitting down just cross your foot

and grab your toes okay

and stretch your foot going downward

okay so in other words you’re not

stretching your calf

you’re stretching the muscles on the

front part of your shin that muscle is

called the anterior tibialis so you’re

stretching your foot down okay you’re

gonna stretch it relax it

stretch it relax it

stretch it relax it just do that 10

times

right now now as you’re stretching

i want to tell you something

anytime you have an injury like

inflammation underneath your foot

and you stretch the opposite muscle

what’s going to happen you’re going to

send

signals

on the opposite side because any time

you contract a muscle there is a circuit

that connects this muscle with the

opposing muscle so to allow movement

when we contract one muscle the opposite

muscle must relax and must lengthen or

else you couldn’t have motion but as you

stretch the muscle the same thing

happens what you’re doing with the

stretch

is you’re sending signals to the bottom

of your foot okay and your calf

to relax that’s all you’re doing all

right so it should be about 10 times

right now

go ahead and write down what your pain

rating is right now if you’re doing this

correctly it should have significantly

decreased

and please put that in the comments

section so you want to do this a few

times a day every day for about two

weeks that’s the stretch but there’s

other things you’re going to do as well

all right let’s go to number two

you want to avoid

pro-inflammatory

foods and things that

are considered food but are really not

food now if you take a look at junk food

it’s really made out of three things

refined flour refined sugar and refined

oils now they call it refined oils

vegetable oils but they’re they have

nothing to do with vegetables okay

they’re not vegetables they’re seeds but

vegetable oil sounds a lot better i mean

what are you gonna do like squeeze a

carrot or lettuce and try to pull oil

out of there that’s not what happens

what they do with seed oils is to

extract oil from the seed you have to

put these seeds under tremendous

pressure

with solvents like hexane which can be

toxic to your nervous system and you

have to put them under very high heats

so refined flour refined sugar and

definitely refined grain oils

are the culprit

to a lot of your inflammation in your

body

but the big one that a lot of people do

not put emphasis on is the vegetable

oils i’m talking about soy oil corn oil

canola oil

cotton seed oil these are highly

inflammatory and they create major

health problems not just inflammation

they lead to

gaining weight obesity they lead to

heart disease they shorten your life

there’s studies that show linking to

gaining cancer so it wasn’t very long

ago that we

switched our fats in our foods okay we

used to use saturated fats okay like

butter

lard

talo and now we do all this processed

vegetable oils now i know you’re saying

you know you don’t use vegetables right

you don’t have

uh corn oil sitting in your cupboard but

here’s the thing in america 20 of your

calories is coming from these

so-called vegetable oils 20

for an average person and let me tell

you where they’re hidden they’re hidden

in mayonnaise

salad dressing any food that’s either

canned or boxed or processed they’re fed

to animals in their animal feeds that

you end up eating and they’re in pretty

much every single restaurant that you go

to these restaurants do not cook with

butter or olive oil they use soy and

corn and canola unfortunately

so if you’re going out to dinner a lot

and you feel more plantar fasciitis then

we know why now what happens with these

omega-6 fatty acids which are

pro-inflammatory is they start to

replace

certain healthy fats inside your cell

membranes in other words they get lodged

in the cells and it creates a situation

where it’s very very difficult to get

these oils out

it actually takes about four years

to

detox these oils out of your cells to

get them out of your body because

they’re so locked in to every single

cell membrane so when you switch your

diet and start to get rid of these oils

and use more saturated fats

whether you’re cooking or consuming

butter

coconut oil avocado is a good oil and

especially olive oil it’s going to take

about four years to completely get these

oils out of your body and the amount of

oxidation that’s occurring because

they’re very very fragile in your body

is astronomical it’s creating so much

free radical damage

in its inflammatory process not to

mention every single one of these oils

is gmo which means they probably have

traces of glyphosate which is an

herbicide and traces of hexane which is

another toxin that i’m not going to get

into in this video but i’m emphasizing

this because in practice

i would say a hundred percent of the

people coming in with plantar fasciitis

were consuming annoyingly a tremendous

amount of this oil and

as soon as we made the switch and switch

these fats

there is significant improvement

not just in inflammation but in all

sorts of health related issues all right

the next thing you could do for some

quick relief is start taking vitamin d3

if it’s winter if it’s a summer you go

outside you get a lot of sun because

vitamin d3 is one of the most powerful

anti-inflammatory and i wouldn’t just

take you know 600 ius

which is the rda i would take

minimally 10 000 i use but preferably 20

000 i use but you’re going to find

probably within a few hours that any

inflammation in your body whether it’s

in the bottom of your foot or your back

is going to start to vanish all right

and the last thing that creates a lot of

inflammation is frequent eating so i

highly recommend you start intermittent

fasting and you’re going to find that

too is going to create a huge effect in

your inflammation not to mention other

things like weight your mood your

cognitive function

and your energy now for those of you

that want the best anti-inflammatory

diet

i’m going to put it right here there’s

actually a series or a playlist of a few

videos that you need to watch check it

out i put it right here
