CHIROPRACTIC: ONE WAY TO FEEL BETTER AND GAIN A SENSE
OF CONTROL“Listen to your elders!” An analysis of over-60
year olds discovered that 29.2% of them used
complementary health alternatives in the last 12 months: herbal
therapies, chiropractic and massage topped the list. 60% of those
folks reported that it was “important” for keeping
their health and well-being. They reported that it improved
their overall health, and they felt better. They had an
enhanced sense of control over their health. They said these types of interventions
made it easier to cope with their health problems.
(1) Today more than ever, we in West Des Moines all need a better sense of control over our health and well-being.
Your West Des Moines chiropractor is your partner in good
times and difficult times, for young folks and elders! Make your

us is not. (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 helps fight
challenges to it. Air pollution is a challenge as it can trigger
undue immune responses: infection, cancer, auto-immune
conditions. Inhaled air pollution usually lands
on respiratory mucosa and affects the
respiratory system. (The news is filled with talk about the
respiratory system today.) Vitamin D supplementation is one strategy research
proposes may boost the immune system to combat
such invasion. (3) Vitamin D is reportedly beneficial to
improve and keep clinical depression at bay via its homeostatic,
immunomodulatory and neuroprotective roles. (4) Everyone from
government, research and industry globally know 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
us talk about this at your next chiropractic appointment
and set a plan to boost your vitamin D level and let
your body to fight health-compromising problems.
