Your Immune System

The immune system has many types of cells that act like a little army to attack invaders such as germs and viruses. But, these cells operate in a delicate balance within our body.

For example, too much body fat causes the production of pro-inflammatory immune cells. Too many of these cells circulating in the body can be harmful. According to Dr. Alex Viardot, "These inflammatory cells are involved in promoting coronary artery disease and other illnesses associated with obesity."

In the study published in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology Metabolism, the authors concluded that even modest weight reduction of just 13 lbs. could produce an 80% reduction of pro-inflammatory T-helper cells and also a reduction of other circulating immune cells.

Dr. Viardot added, "This is the first time it has been shown that modest weight reduction reverses some of the very adverse inflammatory changes we see in obese people with diabetes... The situation has reached crisis point, and people must be made aware that excess fat will affect their immune systems and therefore their survival."

For More Health And Wellness, Dump Once A Week...

What would happen if your garbage didn’t get picked up for the entire Summer? Eventually it would pile up and your house would get pretty stinky. The same goes for Subluxations...

Like garbage, the stress from Subluxations can pile up in your nerves if not ‘dumped’ regularly. As you go through your normal day, the physical, chemical, and emotional stresses you experience have a tendency to accumulate. The result? You experience symptoms of a clogged and congested nerve system like…

Poor Sleep
Lack of Energy
Fatigue
Weak Immunity
Chronic pains
Headaches
Anxiety
Poor Digestion
And Many more…


Your body was built to function at 100%, but it can’t if Subluxations are weighing you down. The solution…make sure you dump them often with regular Chiropractic adjustments! Patients who get the most benefits from chiropractic don’t use it as a temporary patch for aches and pains. They’ve discovered the true lasting benefits that come from living with a clean nerve system like more energy, better recovery from injuries, and abundant health.

This Summer plan to take your and your family’s health to the next level. Keep regular with your Chiropractic care and you’ll feel the difference!
