Broadus stated, âI wanted to change because it just became a lot. Iâm only 24 years old, taking 10 to 12 pills every single day. So I kind of just went cold Turkey.â
She described how the medications made her âfeel like I was going insane.â
âI stopped taking all of my medication like five months ago,â Broadus explained. âIâm just doing everything natural, all types of herbs, sea moss, teas.â
Broadus added, âI started working out, drinking lots of water ⊠So now I think my bodyâs like, OK, this is the new program and sheâs getting used to it.â
The new program has helped. She said, âIâve been good, better than Iâve ever been.â
Lupus is a chronic autoimmune disorder that affects multiple areas of the body, including the kidneys, lungs, brain, and heart. It also causes inflammation and has no known cure.
Broadus is committed to her new approach.
She said, âItâs continuously a learning process because thereâs so much more I could be doing.â
Eating healthy, getting enough rest, and working out despite experiencing how âhard it is to get out of bed in the morning,â have helped.
âMy body is not achy,â she explained. âWhen you have Lupus, thatâs one of the number one things.â
âYou have achy joints, you have arthritis. And now Iâm like, damn, Iâm not complaining about my knees, my feet, my hands, my back,â she said.
She also noted, âI want to be OK,â she said. âYouâre not going to always be OK, and thatâs OK because weâre human, but I want to be OK overall, mentally, physically. And weâre going to get there.â
