Let me first make it clear that in no way shape or form do I consider myself anti-medicine nor am I preaching that you should be. Modern medicine is vastly important and responsible for saving the lives of countless individuals. However, it is imperative to understand that we as a country are entirely over-medicated, overly vaccinated and in general in poor health considering that our countries world health ranking is 37th in the world yet we consume over 65% of the worlds pharmaceuticals. Does this sound healthy to you?
I’m sure you all were aware of the recent swine flu “scare”. Many of you received this relatively rushed and somewhat tested vaccine with the idea that it was the healthy thing to do. Well the results are in and what was thought to be a pandemic turned out to be a overblown exaggeration with less virulence than the common cold. For those of you who waited to make an informed and educated decision, you seem to have made the right choice. Please take a moment and read this article from Dr. Mercola on the following link. He is a leading authority on health and wellness care and should be able to give some great information that could inform you greatly.

If you are visiting this blog, odds are you’re most likely a healthy individual whom strives to achieve optimal health and wellness. The routes that we can take to achieve health are countless and vary depending on personal goals. Most of us exercise, eat healthy, meditate to relieve stress, get adjusted and supplement when necessary. Unfortunately, food sources in this country are often processed and void of the nutrition necessary to maintain wellness. This leaves us with using supplementation to make up for any deficiencies we may have. Supplementing can be tedious and confusing at times. Proper dosage, supplement interactions, concerns over viable brands, and weeding through outrages claims by some companies all present problems to the consumer. Wouldn’t it be nice if there were a Vitamin which was clearly more powerful and important than any other vitamin on the market? And imagine if this powerful/important vitamin was absolutely 100% free to anyone. I have some good news for everyone; this actually exists and all you have to do to take advantage of this wonderful benefit is to simply walk outside and let the sun do its job 
Your life, health, and happiness is at the affect of countless variables. We know that we are affected equally by physical stress, toxins, and perceived mental stress. What if there was a way to change how we perceived stressful situations in our lives; wouldn’t that allow us to control and in doing so, optimize our levels of health and happiness?
While most of us have become accustomed to living with/dealing with our health related issues, it is imperative to realize that most if not all of us can make drastic changes in our lifestyle to not just treat these symptoms but to fix the cause of most of these root problems. Of all of the condition’s that we as Chiropractors give care for, of the most common is the issue of headaches. When did it become so happenstance to take pain killers as if we were like popping a tic-tac or a Flintstones vitamin? Do you think that headaches are a normal occurrence?
Stress defined as a nonspecific adaptation response of an organism to a stimulus or stressor.Whom among us doesn’t experience stress in one way or another each and every day. The good news is that our bodies are born with an amazing inherent ability to deal with such stressors, the not so good news is that we can only “deal” for so long before we start to show the symptoms of a highly stressed body and mind.
