There is no one naturopathic diet and Naturopathic doctors have years of nutrition training while they are in medical school. Often times, Naturopathic doctors will prescribe specific diets for specific conditions or prescribe changes to your diet that will provide benefit against the health condition that ails you. However when we start to eat different or change the foods we eat, we can experience digestion changes or headaches because of the shifts our bodies undergo with the changes in diet. A great example, would be when you stop drinking coffee and get a headache for a couple of days afterwards. Your body is missing the caffeine and you have a withdrawal headache. It is temporary and will go away. Drink plenty of water and make sure to have regular bowel movements. If you are not tolerating the diet changes, it is best to go over this with you Naturopathic physician.

It is best for your husband to follow his doctor's instructions on the prescriptions (Lyrica and Percocet) as his doctor is the prescriber and knows more about his health history. Lyrica can also help with pain so that may be enough. If pain is not manageable following up your prescribing doctor for pain management is best.
