October Is National Chiropractic Month

Chiropractic was discovered 116 years ago by DD Palmer in Davenport, IA.  He stated that Chiropractic was founded on the principle of tone.  When the tone of your nervous system is normalized, the body is therefore able to self-heal and self-regulate at the highest potential.

This is why it is imperative for everyone to get regular check-ups from their Chiropractor to make sure the tone of their nervous systems is normal.

Have you had your spine and nervous system checked lately?

Test Your GMO Knowledge

True or False?
Q: The only Sweeteners on the market that likely contain genetically modified organisms are those made from corn - ie., fructose, corn syrup, and high-fructose corn syrup.

A: False.  Sweeteners made from corn, more than 80 percent of which is genetically modified, are likely to contain GMOs.  But so is sugar, which is usually a combination of sugar cane and sugar from GM sugar beets.  Also, the artificial sweetener aspartame, found in NutraSweet and Equal, is a genetically modified product.

October Is National Non-GMO Month

True or False
Q: The two main traits given to genetically modified foods are to produce their own insecticide or to be resistant to herbicides that kill other plants.

A: True.  The five most common genetically modified foods are genetically modified to either produce their own insecticide or to tolerate herbicides that kill other plants or both.

National Non-GMO Month

True or False:
One of the easiest ways to remember the 5 major genetically modified crops in our food supply is to remember that they all begin with the letter "c"? - False. Three of the five -corn, canola, and cottonseed - begin with the letter "c".  The other two begin with "s".  They are soy and sugar from sugar beets.

Are You Well Connected?

The brain communicates with the body through the nervous system and the body communicates with the brain through the nervous system.  When there is interference with the communication the body can't express its fullest potential and Chiropractors call this subluxation.  This is called the safety pin cycle.  Make sure you are well connected and get regular chech-ups for subluxation.

Paper Cut

What would happen if you get a paper cut?  How would it look in a month?  What if there was a splinter in it?  Would it heal the same?  The body is self-healing, self-regulating and subluxations interfere with the self-healing and self-regulating of the body just like a splinter interferes with the healing of the paper cut.
