CHIROPRACTIC

The Central or Autonomic Nervous System is the main connection between chiropractic and a strong immune system. It’s a simple 3-step framework:

  1. Excessive STRESS (Emotional, Chemical, and Physical) stacks up and build up in our lives, and creates a “shift” in our nervous system that often leads it to be STUCK in what’s called fight-or-flight sympathetic overdrive (subluxation)
  2. Excessive sympathetic stress then SUPPRESSES the immune system (as well as the gut and other major systems)
  3. This then leaves us more SUSCEPTIBLE to illness of all sorts, and makes it harder to overcome and get through an illness, prolonging the SICKNESS

Chiropractic can also help improve the Nervous System’s function, which in turn can help other vital systems like the immune system!

  1. The adjustment RELEASES and REDUCES that built up stress
  2. The Nervous System then achieves better BALANCE, aka less sympathetic stress
  3. The Immune System can then function better, helping fight off illness and get through them faster, and overall STAY HEALTHY

EXERCISE

GET MOVING – exercise is an essential “nutrient” to reduce stress and detox the body! Pick your favorite kind, and get after it 3-5x per week!

NUTRITION

Eat a well-balanced diet consisting mostly of unprocessed whole foods.

  • Buy whole foods and cook/bake your own meals, breads, snacks, desserts (limited), etc.

Eliminated (or do your best to reduce) sugar, partially hydrogenated fats/trans fats, and heavily processed foods.

  • Watch sugar intake, including natural sugars
  • Avoid margarine, vegetable shortening, canola oil, etc. Eat and cook with olive oil, butter/ghee, coconut oil, and lard
  • Avoid frozen foods, processed foods, and foods with long ingredient lists. Instead choose real foods, such as high-quality meat and fish, eggs, colorful, fruits and vegetables, whole fat dairy, nuts, beans, and whole grains (as your diet permits). *Choose organic, pasture-raised, grass-fed, antibiotic- and hormone-free, and non-GMO when possible
