CHIROPRACTIC: ONE WAY TO FEEL BETTER AND GAIN A SENSE
OF CONTROL“Listen to your elders!” A study of over-60
year olds stated that 29.2% of them used
complementary health alternatives in the last 12 months: herbal
therapies, chiropractic and massage lead the list. 60% of those
folks reported that it was “important” for maintaining
their health and well-being. They reported that it boosted
their overall health, and they felt better. They had an improved sense of control over their health. They said these types of options
created an easier way to cope with their health problems.
(1) Today more than ever, we in Eugene are all in need
of a stronger sense of control over our health and well-being.
Your Eugene chiropractor is with you in good
times and hard times, for young folks and elders! Make your
appointment soon! In the meantime, take
advice from the CDC while the coronavirus pandemic is on our minds,
too, as these are all things within our control when so much around
us isn’t. (2)

TIP OF THE MONTH: Take Vitamin D
A healthy body counts on a healthy,
well-functioning immune system. Vitamin D supports a health immune system and aids combat
challenges to it. Air pollution is a challenge as it can cause
extreme immune responses: infection, cancer, auto-immune
conditions. Inhaled air pollution typically settles on respiratory mucosa and influences the
respiratory system. (The news is filled with talk about the
respiratory system today.) Vitamin D supplementation is one strategy study
proposes may boost the immune system to combat
such invasion. (3) Vitamin D is reportedly beneficial to
improve and keep clinical depression at bay due to its homeostatic,
immunomodulatory and neuroprotective roles. (4) Many from
government, research and industry around the world are
very aware that vitamin D deficiency is a big
problem. They are working to find ways to deal with
it and respond to the questions “How much vitamin D should I take a
day?” and “How best do we make sure everyone gets that?” (5) Let’s talk about this at your next chiropractic visit
and make a plan to increase your vitamin D level and allow
your body to fight health-compromising problems.
