Water (filtered) is the way to go!  Reminds me of the related study I quoted recently that demonstrated that high fructose corn syrup contains mercury.  Junk, junk, junk, can't expect junk food to be anything but junk.  And yes, most juice is junk food.

Swine flu pandemic was made up!

This makes me sick.  The millions who got the swine flu shot simply got swindled.  Please read this article out of the British Journal of Medicine, one of the world's most prestigious medical journal.

Chinese Fluoride in Your Water?

Fluoride

First, here is the link: http://www.thebostonchannel.com/news/22814488/detail.html

It is my opinion that fluoride is a poison that has no place in our water supply. Now the issue is compounded by possibly tainted Chinese origin. China has worked long and hard to earn the reputation of using poor quality and dangerous to your health ingredients. I see no reason to believe this would be any different.

Solution: get a reverse osmosis water filtration system. I just got a new one from Costco (not made in China I hope).

Subluxations Ruin Your Body

Falling Apart Doesn't Have To Be Painful

During my weekly scientific literature review (keeping up-to-date is work) I ran across an intriguing reference to a 1980 article. I have seen this article referenced numerous times, so I decided to look it up. It was published in the prestigious Spine Journal, vol. 5, number 2 and written by “pain guru” Gunn (he literally wrote the book on the neurology of pain).

Straight to the juicy parts: Gunn describes how trauma to a healthy nerve is usually painless. But significant problems arise over time. The nerve acquires a quality called “denervation supersensitivity” that modifies the signals your body sends to the brain and scrambles the signals the brain sends to the body. Worse, the presence of pain or the intensity of pain is unrelated to the degree of damage. You could be falling into ruin without even knowing it until massive problems are present.

What it means to you: Painless spinal trauma (like a desk job, sleeping wrong...) causes nerve conduction disruption that can have devastating long-term effects on your glands and organs. Therefore, it is essential to have your spine checked by your chiropractor on a regular basis to correct the problem in order to maintain health, function and wellbeing. And if the spinal trauma actually was painful at the time, run, don’t walk to the chiropractor, because your central nervous system functions are compromised and you are starting to fall apart!

See you soon for your essential-for-a-long-healthy-life check-up.

Neck Misalignment Hurt Your Heart

An article published in a journal that is the sure cure to insomnia describes in detail (and I mean detail) the link and pathogenesis of heart disease from upper cervical subluxations.

They even mention specifically that this neurochemical pathway explains why studies have shown that chiropractic adjustments help lower blood pressure.

In plain English: neck subluxations alter brain function leading to heart problems; and chiropractic adjustments are a uniquely effective way to restore optimal function and health.

Chiropractic really keeps you ticking!
