Support for Healthy Living - Does Your Diet Matter?

Jan 25, 2020

Fill in the gaps where your diet is lacking.

How To Get The 5 Things Every Body Needs Every Day

Are you a typical American, consuming the Standard American Diet (SAD)? 
If you answered yes, you are falling short in getting the vitamins, minerals and other micronutrients you need. A recent study in the journal Nutrients found that 31% of our population is at risk for at least one vitamin deficiency or anemia (1).  

Sluggish?
When vitamins and minerals are lacking, the body isn’t functioning at full potential, which can make you feel tired and sluggish.

Do you eat at least a full plate of veggies every day and rotate the types of veggies you eat?
Most Americans have difficulty getting the bare minimum of healthy vegetables and fruit each day.  

We get it…life is fast-paced and doesn’t always allow eating in a way that will provide all the nutrients you need to support your body.

Support for Healthy Living Protocolfills in the gaps where you might fall short. Dr. Cromwell has put together a list of supplements to support your everyday health.

VITAMIN D3 SUPPLEMENT (If you have low vitamin levels, add this also)

Why Vitamins and Minerals are so Important.
  • There are 37 quadrillion cellular reactions per second in the human body. (Yes, “QUADRILLION!”)
  • Vitamins are the catalysts that make cellular reactions possible.
  • Minerals work as on/off switches for chemical reactions, keep your pH correct, allow voltage transfer, and balance water. Also, the bony and cartilage structures of the body rely on minerals.
  • When vitamins and minerals are lacking, the 37 quadrillion cellular reactions per second in the human body are impaired/reduced.

Why probiotics are so Important
  • The human digestive tract requires an exact amount of “good” bacteria for proper functioning.
  • Hectic lifestyle, poor eating habits, antibiotic use and stress lead to a lower amount of healthy bacteria in the lower intestine and higher amount of pathogenic (disease causing) bacteria.
  • Good gut bacteria, boosted by taking probiotics, is important for good digestion, keeping the pathogenic bacteria in check, regular bowel movements, boosting the immune system, good mental health and even producing certain vitamins (3).

Why Omega 3s are Important
  • The human body is able to make most of the fats it needs from other fats. This isn’t the case with omega 3 fatty acids. We need to consume them in our diet.
  • Diets lacking ocean, cold water fish must be supplemented.
  • Omega 3s affect cell receptors and cell membranes. They are critical to the regulation of blood clotting, artery function and genetic function.
  • Omega 3s correct the threshold for the control of inflammation.
  • Omega 3s make the body more resilient by increasing the resistance to inflammation changes. This helps the body recover faster from injury.
Preobiotics are so Important
  • Equally important to pro-biotics are pre-biotics, non digestible fibers that act as fertilizer to support the growth of beneficial bacteria in your intestines. Basically, pro-biotics introduce new bacteria into your system while pre-biotics feed the bacteria that is already there.
  • Just like us, our gut/intestinal bacteria need good fuel to thrive amidst the processed junkfood, sugars, and refined carbs. When your digestive microbes are fed properly, they promote good gut health by nourishing the gut barrier and improving digestion.
Why is Vitamin D3 Important
  • Thirty-six organs/tissues in the human body require vitamin D.
  • It affects the immune system, heart and blood pressure regulation, the secretion and control of insulin, mood, brain activity, cancer risk, muscle strength and bone health.
  • About one-half of older adults are not getting enough vitamin D.

Benefits of Chiropractic Treatments for Elderly Patients

04 Mar, 2022
The benefits of chiropractic treatment for the elderly are numerous. One of the most popular benefits is pain relief. Studies show that patients with low back pain get better improvements after receiving treatments from a chiropractor than other medical and non-medical treatments. Many elderly people suffer from joint and muscle issues and chronic inflammation is the leading cause. A chiropractic adjustment has been shown to reduce chronic inflammation and can ease joint and lower back pain. Patients who are suffering from pain and/or inflammation should consider receiving chiropractic treatments. At any ago (especially elderly) the nervous system is the more important part of the body. It controls all of the body’s systems and functions, including the immune system. When the nerve system is disrupted it affects how the body’s cells function. This results in a bad immune response causing irregular swelling and chronic pain. Chiropractic adjustments relieve the nerve system disruption so chronic pain and inflammation goes down in people of all ages.
