Pain, aches, depression, fatigue. These symptoms can be telling signs of an emerging disorder, Fibromyalgia, which is related to arthritis but also quite different. Until recently, lack of information has produced only minimally effective treatments. In this completely updated edition, however, Dr. Elrod provides an effective regimen, including nutrition, physical and mental exercise, and supplementation therapies that not only make fibromyalgia a manageable disease, but also a reversible one.
Dr. Elrod holds multiple degrees in exercise physiology and has completed post-doctoral research in the areas of nutrition, exercise physiology, heart disease, cancer and arthritis. Nutrition and exercise has been his life journey, starting as an athlete and continuing throughout his career. Dr. Elrod played all sports in his younger years, but baseball is his love. He was fortunate to be drafted into the Baltimore Orioles organization, where he spent 2 years and enjoyed it tremendously.
He is married to Sherri, whom he says is an "extraordinary" woman. Together, they counsel people in the area of health and wellness, including nutrition and exercise. They developed a course "Balance For Life" which is taught in a weekend seminar format. The seminar is designed to teach people how to keep balance in order to live a longer, more productive and healthier life. They may be contacted at info@drelrod.org to discuss your health issues and concerns in the area of health and wellness, and for more information about their weekend seminars.
Their greatest enjoyment is spending time with family which include 2 daughters, Delise and Heidi, 2 sons, Jesse and Joshua and 5 grandchildren, ranging from 19 years old to 4 years old. They enjoy reading, teaching seminars, exercising, cooking (and learning everyday new things about nutrition), their church home, watching sports, and playing with their golden retriever, Eli.
