Whiplash

Whiplash is a common injury I see in my Santa Monica Chiropractic office.
Whiplash is a neck injury that often occurs during rear-end automobile collisions, as your head suddenly moves backward and then forward - much like the motion of someone cracking a whip. These extreme motions pull your neck muscles and ligaments beyond their normal range of motion. The end result can be micro-tears in your muscles and ligaments, and subluxations in your cervical and thoracic spine.

Symptoms of Whiplash range from:
-Neck and upper back pain.
-Headaches.
-Shoulder pain.
-Difficulty breathing.
-Muscle tenderness.
-Pain shooting from your neck into your arms/fingers.
-Neck and back stiffness.
-More!

At Bay Chiropractic in Santa Monica we offer a series of treatments to deal with Whiplash type injuries. Even though whiplash is often seen as a result of auto accidents, it often happens during contact sports such as football, basketball, snowboarding and surfing.

Whiplash symptoms can last for years if not treated. If you are having neck pain, headaches, or other symptoms relating to whiplash, call us to set up an appointment and begin your road to wellness.

Sincerely,

Dr. Eric - Your Santa Monica Chiropractor

ARSENIC IN YOUR TURKEY? YES!!! AHHHHHHHH

In this day and age, where we know so much, it also seem we also know very little, particularly about what is being fed to us. In a recent article by published today in the L.A.Times (click here to read full article) I learned that ARSENIC, a poisonous substance, is added turkeys. Why you ask? So they "look better". The same substance used is banned in Europe. Why not here, in the land of the free? My guess is that cooporate greed had a hand in this.

The sad thing is that as a consumer, it's nearly impossible to know. Is this information beind disclosed? I don't know, I'll have to pay attention to the turkey packaging next time I'm in the store, but being a 35 year old man, and having bought my fair share of said birds, I know I didn't know about this.

How far will greed and vanity take us? It would be nice if this didn't happen on the first place.

I'm still in shock about this. One more thing to stay on top of.

Please read the article and pass it along to your loved ones.

Best and happy thanksgiving,

What's in Pinapple's that can help with inflammation?

Pineapple's contain an enzyme called Bromelain. Here are some of the benefits of Bremelain:

Benefits: 1. Aids in reducing swelling.
2. Aids in recovering from athletic injuries.
3. May help with rheumatoid arthritis


Recommendations: The recommended intake of Bromelain is between 1,200 and 1,800 mg a day. Caution Bromelain should not be taken with Warfarin, Coumadine, asprin, Ginko, or high dosages of Vitamin E as it is also a blood thinner.

Wobenzym helps in tissue healing, and it aids in immune system function.

I carry only a few nutrition supplements in my office, and Wobenzym is one of them because of their solid research and excellent track record with my patients. If you are intersted in finding more about Wobenzym please call my office to set up a consultation.

Here they go again...

From page AA3 in the LA times today (10-25-10), even though the whooping cough vaccine wasn't tested in older people, the state says they should get it! SERIOUSLY? WHY? According to them, to protect the infants. Great way to scare people into getting something that they tell you has evidence of effectiveness or side effects since they didn't test for it. (but, get it anyways.... right?)

There are several proven things one can do to live a healthier life, but the "state" won't put a big article on the paper about it:
1. DO NOT (EVER) EAT JUNK FOOD: including: McDonalds, Jack in the Box, Carls Jr., or Taco Bell.
2. DO NOT DRINK ANYTHING WITH HFCS (high fructose corn syrup).
3. EAT PLENTY OF FRESH FRUITS, VEGETABLES AND NON-PROCESSED MEATS AND FISH
4. GET PLENTY OF SUN (DO NOT WEAR SUNBLOCK) AND EXERCISE REGULARLY.

Start by doing this simple things and you are sure to improve your health.

Don't buy into the hype. Of the millions of people in the state, only 10 have died this year "allegedly" of whooping cough. That's a not significant enough to push a product that has not been tested on anyone!

Drugs that deplet nutrients

Dear Friends,
If you are taking over-the-counter or prescription medications you may be depleting nutrients from your body. Here is an interesting article from a chiropractic web magazine that everyone should read.

Helping Patients Replenish Nutrients Depleted By Common Prescription and OTC Medications

Dr. James Meschino practices in Toronto, Ontario. He can be contacted via his Web site: www.renaisante.com. For more information, including a brief biography, a printable version of this article and a link to previous articles, please visit his columnist page online: www.chiroweb.com/columnist/meschino.

The use of prescription and over-the-counter drugs is extremely prevalent in North America and in most of the Western developed world. It is reported that 46 percent of Americans take at least one prescription drug daily. In 2005, the Minnesota Board on Aging demonstrated that for individuals over the age of 65, 21 percent took five or more prescription drugs every day; 25 percent took three to four prescription drugs per day; 36 percent took one to two prescription drugs per day, while only 18 percent did not take any prescription drugs on a daily basis.
Although many natural-health practitioners do not have formal training in pharmacology, it is at the very least, important for these practitioners to be aware of the nutrient depletion that can result from the use of certain medications. Further, natural-health practitioners should advise patients on how to replenish the nutrient depletion associated with the drugs they are taking. What is evident from the information that follows is that taking a high-potency multiple vitamin enriched with antioxidants, a B-50 complex and 350-500 mg of calcium is an important consideration to counter drug-induced nutrient depletion, as well as being a cornerstone of wellness care for most adults. The following is a summary of nutrients depleted by commonly used drugs:
Laxatives are associated with depletion of the following nutrients:
· Vitamin A
· Vitamin D
· Vitamin E
· Calcium
Antibiotics are associated with depletion of the following nutrients:
· Vitamin B1

· Magnesium
· Zinc
Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor drugs, used for high blood pressure, are associated with depletion of zinc. Beta-blockers, also used in the treatment of high blood pressure, are associated with depletion of coenzyme Q10. Statin drugs (e.g., Lipitor), used in the treatment of high cholesterol, are associated with depletion of coenzyme Q10.

4. AIDS IN MALE INFERTILITY.
5. RELIEVE THE SYMPTOMS OF BENIGN BREAST DISEASE.
6. HELPS WITH DIABETES.
7. HELPS IN EYE HEALTH.
8. HELPS PREVENT INTERMITTENT CLAUDICATION AND LEG CRAMPS.
9. SLOWS DOWN THE PROGRESSION OF PARKINSON'S DISEASE

How it Works: Because Vitamin E is an antioxidant, it binds to free radicals in the body that cause problems to cells and can lead lead to things like cancer, cataracts, heart problems, male infertility, and Parkinson's initial stages. Vitamin E helps diabetics maintian their blood sugar, and may prevent diabetic neuropathy which is basically caused from too much blood sugar around the nerves. Vitamin E works best with adequate amounts of selenium.

Sources: Good food sources of vitamin E are: almonds, apples, asparagus, avodocados, corn oil, hazelnuts, peanuts, sunflower seeds, sweet patatoes, and wheat germ.

Recommendations: The MINIMUM amount of Vitamin E needed for children 1-3 years old is 6 mg/day. The MINIMUM for children 4-8 years old is 7 mg/day. The MINIMUM for children 9-13 years old is 11mg/day. The MINIMUM for people 14 and older is 15 mg/day. The MINIMUM for pregnant women is 15 mg/day.

Vitamin K

A little info on Vitamin K

Benefits: 1. MAKING BLOOD CLOTS.
2. HELPS BUILD BONES.
3. KILLS SOME CANCER CELLS

How it Works: Vitamin K helps form blood clots to stop bleeding and bruising. It is used by the liver to make prothrombin which is the most important clotting factor. Vitamin K also helps the bones absorb calcium and keep calcium in the bones. Thus, keeping the bones healthy and strong. In test tube studies, Vitamin K has been shown to slow down the progression and even kill some cancer cells just as well as cancer medications. Unfortunately, whether it works in human trials will have to wait.

Sources: Good sources of Vitamin K are: liver, broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, eggs, soybean oil, spinach, tomatoes, and turnips.

Recommendations: The MINIMUM amount of vitamin K needed for infants to 6 months is 5 mcg/day. The MINIMUM for infants 6 months to 1 year is 10 mcg/day. The MINIMUM for children 1-3 years old is 15 mcg/day. The MINIMUM for children 4-6 years old is 20 mcg. The MINIMUM for children 7-10 years old is 30 mcg/day. The MINIMUM for males 11-14 years old is 45 mcg/day. The MINIMUM for males 15-18 is 65 mcg/day. The MINIMUM for males 19-24 is 70 mcg/day. The MINIMUM for males 25 and older is 80 mcg/day. The MINIMUM females 11-14 is 45 mcg/day. The MINIMUM for females 15-18 is 55 mcg/day. The MINIMUM for females 19-24 is 60 mcg/day. The MINIMUM for females 25 and older is 65 mcg/day. Finally, the MINIMUM for pregant and nursing women is 65 mcg/day.

Athlete's foot

I today's LA Times "people's pharmacy" section, a reader shared how dipping his toes and feet in vinegar cured his athletes foot problem. If you suffer from athletes foot, this might be a good option to try.

....."From the 1960s to the 1980s, I had the worst case of athlete's foot that I have ever seen — and that is saying something, because I am a doctor and I have seen many. In the early 1990s, my mother suggested white-vinegar foot soaks. I began soaking my feet twice a day. Today, 20 years later, I continue this regimen several times a week, and I have "poster feet": no smell, no athlete's foot.

You don't need to use more than a half-cup of vinegar at a time, but it should be full strength. Don't rinse it off. Soaks of five to 10 minutes (reading, watching TV, etc.) are enough."

How important is proper spinal posture? READ THIS!

More on Forward Head Posture (FHP)

According to Rene Cailliet MD, director of the Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation at the University of Southern California, forward head posture can add up to 30 pounds of abnormal leverage on the cervical spine. This can pull the entire spine out of alignment. FHP results in loss of vital capacity of the lungs by as much as 30 percent. This shortness of breath can lead to heart and blood vascular disease. The entire gastrointestinal system is affected; particularly the large intestine. Loss of good bowel peristaltic function and evacuation is a common effect of FHP. It causes an increase in discomfort and pain because proprioceptive signals from the first four cervical vertebrae are a major source of the stimuli which create the body's pain controlling chemicals (endorphins). With inadequate endorphin production, many otherwise non-painful sensations are experienced as pain. FHP dramatically reduces endorphin production. (from www.toyourhealth.com)

Vitamin C

Vitamin C: Commonly known as Ascorbic Acid

Note: many Vitamin C supplements are only composed of ascorbic acid. In nature (fruits and veggies) vitamin C is much more than just ascorbic acid, but it is also all the vitomers and co-factors that make vitamin C from from food sources much more beneficial than vitamin C in the form of ascorbic acid alone.

Benefits: 1. CAN HELP FIGHT OFF INFECTIONS.
2. HELP FIGHT OFF CANCER.
3. HELP PREVENT HEART DISEASE.
4. HELP PREVENT CATARACTS.
5. PREVENTS SCURVY.
6. LOWERING CHOLESTEROL LEVELS.
7. LOWERING BLOOD PRESSURE.
8. SPEED WOUND HEALING.
9. FIGHTS ALLERGIES AND ASTHMA.
10. HELP PREVENT GALLSTONES.
11. PREVENTING OSTEOPOROSIS.
12. MAY SLOW THE PROGRESSION OF PARKINSON'S DISEASE.

How it Works: Vitamin C helps the immune system because it is the most important antioxidant in the body. In 1976, Linus Pauling showed that cancer patient's lived an average of a year longer from taking mega doses of Vitamin C. Several studies have shown that Vitamin C lowers total cholesterol while raising the good cholesterol HDL. Vitamin C has been linked to lower blood pressure on average of about 4 points. Vitamin C speeds the wound healing process because it allows the body to make collagen. Vitamin C helps prevent excess histamines from being made therefore reducing allergies. A study showed that women who had the highest levels of Vitamin C were 39% less likely to get gallstones. Because vitamin C is antioxidant, it may slow down the progression of Parkinsons early on.

Sources: Good food sources of Vitamin C are: citrus fruits, acerola, guava, papaya, green and yellow peppers, and strawberries.

Recommendations: The MINIMUM Vitamin C for children 1-3 is 15 mg/day. The MINIMUM for children 4-8 is 25 mg/day. The MINIMUM for children 9-13 is 45 mg/day. The MINIMUM for males 14-18 is 75 mg/day. The MINIMUM for females 14-18 is 75 mg/day. The MINIMUM for men 19 and over is 90 mg/day. The MINIMUM for women 19 and over is 75 mg/day. The MINIMUM for pregnant women is 80-85 mg/day. Finally, the MINIMUM for nursing women is 115 mg/day.

Foot Pain? can it be Plantar Faciitis?

If you have ever stepped out of bed and felt like you had an ice pick stuck in your heel, then you know plantar faciitis.

Plantar fasciitis is characterized by pain in the heel of the foot or in the sole of the foot, usually exacerbated by walking without proper arch support. The pain tends to be increased in the morning hours (as the muscles of the foot and calf tighten up at night) and decreases a bit as the day goes on.

Common causes of plantar fasciitis are joint fixations within the tarsal bones (bones of the foot), tight calves muscles and tight foot muscles.

Although many people suffer from this condition for months and years on end, Chiropractic care is very effective treating this condition. A combination of chiropractic adjustments to the foot, myofascial release and some exercises alleviate and in many cases completely get rid of this condition.

If you or anyone you know is suffering from foot pain we may have the solution you are looking for.

A little info on Vitamin D:

Benefits: 1. REGULATING THE ABSORPTION OF CALCIUM
FROM FOOD.
2. AIDS IN NERVE FUNCTION
3. AIDS IN IMMUNE FUNCTION.
4. MAY HELP PREVENT CANCER

How it Works: Without Vitamin D calcium levels would be off. Therefore, all the things that calcium is used for such as strong bones and teeth, nerve functioning, and muscle contractions all depend on Vitamin D. Active Vitamin D is really a hormone called 1-25 dihydroxycholecaliferol. Because a hormone is a drug, and it is not safe to put drugs in foods, the Vitamin D we get is a precursor. In order for it to be activated, a person needs to expose their sking to sunlight and have adequate amounts of Magnesium which is needed as a cofactor. That is why most good supplements will have a Calcium to Magnesium ratio of 2:1. People in more northern climates are more prone to colon cancer. This very well may be because of decreased sunlight exposed to the skin and less active Vitamin D."Recently, research also suggests vitamin D may provide protection from osteoporosis, hypertension (high blood pressure), cancer, and several autoimmune diseases."(from www.mayoclinic.com)

One of the reason's people lack sufficient vitamin D is because using most sunblock products blocks the UVB (ultraviolet b rays from the sun) which are needed for the body to produce vitamin D. When this happens, the body becomes more vulnerable to cancer than if no sunblock is used at all!

Sources: Sun exposure. Good food sources of Vitamin D are canned sardines, fresh salmon, shrimp, fresh herring, cod liver oil, fresh mackeral, liver, eggs, and fortified milk.

Recommendations: The MINIMUM requirement for Vitamin D in children up to 18 years old is 5 mcg/day. The MINIMUM for adults between 19 and 50 is is 5 mcg/day. The MINIMUM for adults 51-70 is 10 mcg/day. The MINIMUM for adults 70 and over is 15 mcg/day. Finally the MINIMUM for pregnant and nursing women is 5 mcg/day.

We are offering a very good Vitamin D supplement at our office for only $10.00 (this comes out to .10cents per day). If you think you are not getting enough vitamin D in your diet, or through sun exposure, come by our office to pick up a bottle.
