Back To Health

Welcome back Natural Health Family. Imagine everyone is doing well and enjoyed the past weekend. Fall is definitely here with the cooler temperatures. Changes in the seasons bring different opportunities and activities. It is important to stay healthy as we fall into this change and onto the next. October is still chiropractic month and with that being said let’s talk more about what it all really means as a way to help ourselves be healthy and well. 


Many times when we think of chiropractic we go to the aspects of helping to align our bodies so that we feel better and move better. This is a great attribute of chiropractic but only one characteristic of what it brings to the table. The study of chiropractic is about helping the whole person get well. It is believed that Thomas Edison once said “The doctor of the future will give no medicine, but will interest his patient in the care of the human frame, in diet and in the cause and prevention of disease.” This quote highlights more aspects of what chiropractic is about. It is not only about adjusting and realigning the body. It is the restoration and regeneration of the whole person through means to bring someone from dis-ease to health and to sustain health. We all have had moments where we get out of balance and have health issues. However, this may actually help us to see that we need to correct and redirect ourselves so that we can get back in alignment. Life can be more difficult at times and we can start having some issues. However, that is why we can connect with each other and find help so that we can endure life’s challenges. 


With all the illnesses in the world, sometimes it can be difficult to realize that health is our natural state. Now with such great technology you would think we would be at our best as a nation in regards to our wellness. However, that is not the case. Health doesn’t have to be complex when we align ourselves appropriately to allow our own healing potential within.


Have a great and blessed week!


Dr. Chip

Most People Don't Reach Micronutrient Requirements Through Food Alone

  STORY AT-A-GLANCE Most adolescents are not getting adequate nutrient intake from diet alone — a finding confirmed from other studies in developed countries such as Spain, France, Portugal and Germany Three-quarters of adolescents consumed less than 54% of the recommended amounts of healthy foods like fruits, vegetables and dairy products Nearly three-quarters of the youth exceeded the recommended limit for sweet and salty snacks — by 453% When nutrient intake was considered from diet alone, adolescents often consumed less than recommended amounts of the fat-soluble vitamins A, D and E along with the water-soluble vitamins folate, biotin and pantothenic acid The use of dietary supplements helped to increase the adolescents’ intake of vitamins and minerals, particularly magnesium and vitamin C, but this isn’t a replacement for a healthy, nutrient-rich diet While it’s possible to get all the vitamins and minerals your body needs by eating a healthy diet, most people fall short.

Breast Health

  Hello Everyone in Natural Health Nation-             Aren’t the trees beautiful? Fall is such a beautiful time of year and the weather has been outstanding. I hope you were able to get outside and increase your vitamin D stores for the winter. Remember that vitamin D is activated by sunlight so it’s important to get some. Vitamin D is also an oil soluble vitamin so you must be consuming good fats in order to have a good vitamin D source. If you get into the science of vitamin D, you’ll find it comes from cholesterol so the mainstream medicines war on cholesterol causes vitamin D levels to be low and this causes lots of immune system problems and other issues. We help our patients be able to digest and absorb fats and watch that their vitamin D levels are optimum.             The article I’m sending along this week looks at screenings and mammograms and how they can be...

Communication

  Natural Health Family, how is everyone doing? I hope everyone enjoyed the beautiful weekend and got some sunshine. Today let’s talk about communication and why it is important in our lives and for our own health.  Last weekend I explored Colorado. I went snowboarding and hiked a good amount also. I learned a lot just by getting out in nature and noticing different aspects of the forest and parks. One characteristic of the forest that I found interesting was the aspen trees. It appeared that they would appear sporadically in the forest and in groups. I was curious and wanted to learn more about them. I found out that the different aspen trees or tree trunks are not separate but they actually function as one tree. The roots of the tree are well connected so that they are able to communicate and act as one organism. I found this interesting because we tend to think that the whole tree is only about what is on the surface of the ground rather than all the roots and connections...
