Hey, this is Dr. Dan Perser. This is kind of my public announcement on fibromyalgia. 5 and a half years ago, almost 6 years ago, I created a Facebook page called End Fibromyalgia with Natural Options. I set it up because most people with fibromyalgia don't have jobs. They can't work. They're hurting all the time. They're in agony. And so,

0:17

I treat I tried to make it as costfree as I could. I call it my 7,000 patient study because I've gotten a lot of data out of that group and they get better. You can't ever be cured from it, but you can get it down to where your symptoms are 1% of what they are now by using natural options. Let's get back to the

0:34

root cause of fibromyalgia. I believe and those 7,000 people on that page believe that fibromyalgia is caused by copper toxicity issue. Hard to argue with 7,000 people. I'm pretty sure we're right. The work we've done has been stellar on that page and the work we've done with patients. We also make a

0:50

product called copper balance which we were actually created as a FDA level medical food with the end of that program. So we sell it as a supplement. Copper Balance allows you to push your copper that you're toxic with into your cells not floating around in your muscles and nerves. Copper Balance also

1:06

works with bars glutathione. The patents we have on both go together. You need to try the bars glutathione capsules. Take three or four or five of those a day and one or two or three or four of the copper balance. Give it a try. Also, you should be on a low copper diet. You can get that off that page. Those citizens

1:22

of that community vote on what goes on that a low copper diet. So, when I started that page, I put five things on it. I think there three or 400 things on there that are both nos and and okay to use. Also, Lois Schwiger runs that page for us. She'll do a diet consult with

1:39

you once you've been on the low copper diet for a while. They're there to help you. A lot of these women and men have been bedridden for years with fibromyalgia. Now, they're functional. They have jobs. They teach yoga. They go out and exercise. They live normal lives. That's I know where you want to be. Don't be afraid to reach out to

1:55

someone that you see on that page and they'll say, "Now, here's where you go to download the low copper diet. Download it. Go through it. Highlight the ones that are problems for you. Later, you can start adding those back in as you learn how to live without pain." Crazy a low copper diet. I'm serious. Give it a try. If you doubt me,

2:11

look at my Google reviews. I know my craft. I know my my patients and I love my fibromyalgia patients. that want to get you better and teach you that there's a natural way. I don't know a medical way that's going to resolve your symptoms and there's a natural way that you can get a lot better. This is Dr. Dan Perer. Thanks.
