WHAT YOU EAT CAN KILL YOU

I am having multiple health problems. Nothing seems to help. Can my diet be the main culprit? Please advise.

It is an old Cliché, you are what you eat. Many people become very defensive when asked about their diet. The usual response is “I eat a balanced diet.” The truth is that you might cease to exist if you continue to make poor food choices (remember the movie Super Size It?). Most people don’t think that food can kill them.

Dr. Blaylock, a retired neurosurgeon stated, that in a recent JAMA publication, it was noted that today’s children may have shorter life expectancy than their parents. This is due to obesity and in addition, chronic illnesses of all kinds are now appearing in astronomical rates among the youth. Also noted, was that childhood asthma rose 200 percent, obesity rose 400 percent and neurodevelopmental disorders such as ADHD and autism have gone through the roof.

If you are older, it does not mean that you’re out of the woods. Neurological disorders have been underestimated and neurodegenerative diseases are reaching frightening proportions. Autoimmune diseases and certain cancers have all exploded in recent years.

Dr. Blaylock stated that most authorities concluded that most of the problems have environmental causes. This means we are doing this to ourselves.

If you want a chance to reclaim your health, I recommend that you find a chiropractor who is also trained in Nutrition Response Testing. It is never too late to give alternative medicine a try. Why would you want to wait to experience a better quality of life?

ADHD AND CHIROPRACTIC

ADHDQ: My son was diagnosed with ADHD and was given a medication. In checking the side effects of the drug I am very reluctant to administer it to my son. Can chiropractic care help my son with his condition?

A: Let me share with you a couple of published cases regarding chiropractic and ADHD.

Kevin’s story: When Kevin was 3 he was diagnosed as having ADHD. His parents agreed to put Kevin on Ritalin. The medication did its job as far as slowing him down a bit, but he suffered many side effects. Finally at age 6 his parents made the decision to stop giving him Ritalin. His sleeping and eating patterns were still erratic, and his schoolwork was horrible…his writing was illegible and math made no sense to him. His parents decided to have him see a chiropractor. Kevin’s mom reported that at his parent-teacher conference, the first thing the teacher asked was had we put Kevin back on Ritalin. My response was no. She showed me samples of Kevin’s sudden improvement…for the first time his writing is in the lines, it is easy to read and much more age appropriate.

Noah’s story: This is the case of an 8-year-old diagnosed with ADHD. For three years he had been on Ritalin and Prozac and was undergoing behavior modification. After 3 weeks of chiropractic care all medications were removed and after 6 weeks of care the school noted improvement in cognitive skills task concentration, ability to control emotions and decreased aggressiveness.

In my opinion you should take your son to a chiropractor to determine if he would benefit from chiropractic
care.
