Important Health Info

Egg yolks are full of important vitamins (A, D, E, K), Omega 3 fats and anti-oxidants of which are not found in egg whites.  Egg whites are pure protein.  The cholesterol in egg yolks is not associated with high blood pressure or heart disease, as we have been improperly led to believe. The egg yolk is the healthiest part of the egg and should be consumed lightly cooked for full benefit. Please use free range organic eggs.

Two of the worst ingredients in processed food are high fructose corn syrup and soybean oil.  The hydrogenation of oils cause cellular dysfunction and studies link hydrogenated oils (trans-fats) to heart disease.  Soybean oil is hydrogenated and soybeans themselves that are grown in the US are genetically modified and engineered and saturated with dangerous levels of herbicides (weed killer).  Consuming high fructose corn-sweetened beverages and sweetened foods increases liver fat and decreases insulin sensitivity, leading to obesity. In addition, the chemical make-up of high fructose corn syrup tricks the brain into thinking you are still hungry causing over eating.

Skin bruises more easily as you get older.  A deficiency in bioflavonoids and vitamin C may contribute to easy bruising.  If you bruise easily, eat more foods that contain bioflavonoids such as fruit and vegetables.  Also, consider taking a vitamin C supplement daily.

Borborigmi is the funny medical name for stomach rumbling.  This noise is a result of muscular contractions in the intestinal wall combined with the presence of liquid and gas.  Stomach growling is a normal function and occurs most of the day, but is not heard all of the time.  Intestines quiet down during sleep.  Thankfully.

Covid Vaccination Concerns: It has been 3 years since the pandemic began and almost the same amount of time since the vaccinations have come out.  This means that the scientific community has had at least 2 years to study safety and the effectiveness of the vaccine.  I am reporting on covid vaccine research, not to be negative on the topic, but to bring awareness to issues that are not typically reported on in the popular press.

Esteemed U.K. cardiologist Dr. Aseem Malhotra has called on the prime minister of the UK to halt further covid-19 vaccination due to the unnecessary harm the shot is causing UK families.  Malhotra spent 9 months studying covid shot data (which he reviewed with the British Medical Association chairman, finding the deaths from covid-19 continue to rise despite the high rate of vaccination (80% of all UK covid cases, hospitalizations and deaths were in the vaccinated). Malhotra stated that the randomized clinical vaccine trials that led to the covid vaccination approval revealed that you are more likely to suffer a serious adverse reaction from the shot than you were to be hospitalized with covid. The doctor is concerned about the major increase in heart related ailments since the vaccination program began.

Dr. Angus Dagleish, professor of medicine at St. George’s University of London warns that covid boosters may be causing aggressive metastatic cancers.  Research shows that SARS-CoV-2 spike protein obliterates 90% of the DNA repair mechanism in lymphocytes, white blood cells that help your body fight infection, chronic disease and cancer.  He goes on to say that the covid vaccine program in the UK should be discontinued as the average cause of covid death is 82 yrs old and the all other causes of death in the UK average age is 81.  The link with clots, myocarditis, heart attacks, strokes, myelitis and neuropathy  is now well accepted.

A study done by the Cleveland Clinic using 51,977 subjects found that the more shots you take to prevent covid, the higher your chance of getting it.  And the current vaccines seem to be only 30% effective.

One more covid-19 shot concern:  The Journal of Cutaneous Immunology and Allergy reported on an increase in herpes zoster (shingles) in people who have been vaccinated with the covid shot.  Shingles reactivation has shown a major increase in men who have been vaccinated.  A study titled, Innate Immune Supression by SARS-CoV2 mRNA Vaccinations describe how the covid shots suppress the immune system by inhibiting the type-1 interferon pathway, which is the first -stage response to all viral infections.

Pregnancy / Prenatal Chiropractic Care Info:  The Webster Technique is utilized to relax the round ligaments during pregnancy. The round ligaments support the pregnant abdomen.  The International Chiropractic Pediatric Association gives their definition as, “A specific chiropractic analysis and diversified adjustment for pelvic balance during pregnancy allowing for optimal fetal positioning (head down/anterior) for an easier, safer birth. The goal of the adjustment is to reduce the effects of sacral subluxation and/or SI Joint dysfunction. In so doing, neuro-biomechanical function in the pelvis is improved.” Throughout pregnancy, the growing body tries to adapt to the weight gain, increase of hormones, and the postural changes that follow. These postural changes increase the risk of sacral/pelvic imbalance at any given time, with or without reason. The bones of the pelvis and the supportive network of ligaments, tendons, muscles, and associated nerves are all under constant pressure and change. The resulting torsion and inflammation of imbalanced muscles and ligaments may then prevent the baby from comfortably assuming the best possible position for their birthing.

Low Back Pain and Chiropractic Care: Chiropractic is a health care profession dedicated to the non-surgical treatment of disorders of the nervous system and/or musculoskeletal system. Generally, chiropractors maintain a unique focus on spinal manipulation and treatment of surrounding structures.  Many studies have concluded that manual therapies commonly used by chiropractors are generally effective for the treatment of lower back pain, as well as for treatment of lumbar herniated disc for radiculopathy  and neck pain, among other conditions.
