A new term has been coined: "FLU FOOD" or food that fuels the flu. FLU
food is consumed passionately by millions of Americans in many
different forms. The main ingredient of FLU FOOD is sugar!! Dairy and
wheat are also major FLU FOODS. The effects of all three of these are
increased by antacids.
As for FLU DEFENSE, your tools are your nervous system, the liver, and
the colon. Take care of your defenses by getting adjusted regularly, by
eating daily your ABC's (Apples, Beets, and Carrots), and by taking
daily your probiotics and fish oil.

Today we'll show you the the final example that proves Chiropractic has
always been a health Science, Art, and Philosophy since day one. Funny
thing is--so are all the other healing arts, including medicine. It is
my opinion that evidence based Chiropractic is a must. And trust me,
there is a ton of evidence out there proving Chiropractic-- both inside
the profession and outside of it. There is evidence to back up not only
musculoskeletal issues (which, of course, we are the best at), but also
organic issues.
Example 4---Only 38% of medical physicians and health care workers get flu shots. Innovations in Wellness Magazine

Example 2--Chiropractic helps fight oxidative stress in healthy people.
Swedish researchers at the University of Lund compared people under
chiropractic care for general wellness to patients with conditions such
as diabetes, cancer, and heart disease. They found that blood levels of
Thiol, an antioxidant promoting DNA repair, were three times higher in
those undergoing chiropractic care for overall good health/Non
symptomatic, than in patients with active diseases. Long term
chiropractic care (longer than one year) showed the greatest results. Good Medicine Magazine

the University of Chicago found that chiropractic adjustment of the
Atlas vertebrae relaxes the arteries at the base of the skull,
improving blood flow and resulting in a 17 point drop in systolic blood
pressure and an 8 point drop in diastolic pressure.

Most repetitive stress injuries, including tennis elbow, are caused by
tendonitis, an inflammation of the fibrous tissue that connects muscles
to bones. Carpal tunnel syndrome, another type of repetitive stress
injury, is caused by nerve inflammation in the wrist. Doctors usually
treat these conditions with anti-inflammatory drugs, including steroid
injections in severe cases. For carpal tunnel syndrome, surgery to
"release" pressure on the nerve is sometimes recommended.
Chiropractic, a more conservative approach, is effective for virtually
all types of repetitive stress disorders. Adjustments to realign joints
and improve range of motion can reduce pressure on tendons and nerves.
The movements also improve lymphatic drainage, which reduces
inflammation, improves circulation and accelerates healing.

People with chronic sinusitis (inflammation of the mucous membranes in the sinuses) rarely get long-term relief from antibiotics or other types of conventional medicine, such as antihistamines and decongestants. Chiropractic can sometimes relieve all or most of the typical symptoms, such as facial pain and nasal congestion. People with chronic sinusitis often have a misalignment in the cervical vertebrae. Chiropractic adjustments may help sinuses drain more efficiently. The treatment for sinusitis also includes applying pressure to the sinuses near the eyebrows and on either side of the nose.

Some adults and virtually all children accumulate fluids in the
Eustachian tube, the passage between the throat and middle ear. The
fluid is a perfect medium for viruses and bacteria, which can cause
otitis media, an infection or inflammation of the middle ear. Many
studies have shown that without antibiotics, chiropractic can relieve
and prevent ear infections. The treatments, which include chiropractic
adjustment and massage of the lymph nodes along the neck and around the
ear, help drain excess fluid. The adjustment helps regulate the nervous
system, which in turn drains the Eustachian tube and promotes long-term
drainage.

A study published in Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics found that colicky babies treated with chiropractic cried about three fewer hours daily
than they did before, compared to a one-hour reduction in those given
the drug dimethicone, a standard treatment. The adjustments given to
children are very gentle. Many have a reduction in colic after just one
or two treatments. Look for a chiropractor who specializes in
children's problems.

The headaches that we all get from time to time often are related to
the cervical spine in the neck. Known as cervicogenic headaches, these
occur when vertebral misalignments cause muscle tightness or spasms.
The tension begins in the neck but can radiate through the occipital
nerves that rise upward from the base of the skull. A study that
compared patients receiving chiropractic care for tension headaches
with those who were treated with the antidepressant amitriptyline
showed reduction in both the frequency and pain intensity of these
types of headaches. Most important, the chiropractic patients sustained
these improvements after the treatment period, unlike patients who were
treated with medication. In a typical treatment, the chiropractor
attempts to realign the cervical joints by adjusting the neck and head.
The main goals of the treatment, apart from adjusting the vertebrae,
are to increase the range of motion, relax the surrounding muscles and
decrease pain and inflammation. People who have only recently started
getting headaches often will improve after one or two sessions with a
chiropractor. Those who have suffered from headaches for years probably
will require multiple treatments before they start to notice a
significant improvement.

Did you know that the holes in a surgeon's mask are about 100 times the
size of the bacteria? How could the mask stop bacteria??! I liken it to
a big jet airplane--the hole in the mask is the size of an airplane,
and the germs are the size of a football. It's simply a silly medical
tradition!

A candle burns brightly all the way to the end, flickers once, and goes
out...life is supposed to be like that--full potential and life
vibrant...flicker once and go out. Unfortunately most people flicker
all through their lives and never burn as brightly as they could under
regular chiropractic care.

A few termites do not mean much and will not do much damage alone, but
over the years,if not controlled, they multiply and can totally destroy
the framework of a house so that one day you unexpectedly walk across
your kitchen and the floor collapses under your feet.Subluxations are
like those termites--the time to correct them is when they are small
and a few, not later when it is too late and when the last thing
comes--symptoms. By the time symptoms come it's too late; the termites
have already taken over.
