It started out like any other Thursday. I woke up, went to class, and worked-out. Nothing too exciting, except at around 10:40pm on January 28th, when I was out with a friend I checked my cell phone to find eight missed calls from my brother and mother followed by a bad feeling in my stomach. In a panic I called my mother to hear her trembling voice tell me “Scott, Dad was hit by a truck when he was crossing the street. We are at the hospital right now. Can you come down?” Naturally, I jumped into my car and broke more traffic laws than I would like to remember on the way to the hospital. After parking I rushed to the emergency room to find my father bruised and bloody, but conscious and coherent. You can only imagine the relief I felt after seeing him talking and cracking jokes. We all realized how lucky we were that we could joke “You think you look bad, you should see the truck.” Miraculously after being clipped by a small truck, my father only suffered a fractured orbital (eye socket), a broken nose, some bruised ribs and minor sprains.
Though these injuries were minor considering the circumstances, the healing was going to take some time and. So, like any good son would do, I went to Angie’s World to buy some products which included: BCAA’s (Branch Chain Amino Acids) to assist with muscle recovery, EPA-EPA-DHA 6:1 (Fish Oil) to help with inflammation and pain, Multigenics Intensive Care because everyone should have their daily vitamins, and Traumatic Injury Remedy to speed up the soft tissue recovery for bruises and wounds. With the help of these products as well as the proper rest and being in good physical shape before the accident, my father was back on his feet and at work so quickly that it even shocked his doctor and co-workers. In fact, he was even back to riding his bike and playing basketball within a few months. So, for those of you that have been slacking on your Metagencis products or doubt if they actually work at all, here is a little something to think about.
