Does anyone know anything about this? Remedies... anything?
I self-diagnosed myself with Plantar Fasciitis. My dad apparently has it as well which I didn't know, however, I am 19 years old and want to do whatever I can to reverse it because it is...

You can always ask a produce dept. employee at Whole Foods to cut one open so you can try it before you waste your money. It's store policy to let people sample things:)
