Chiropractic Founders Day....

The first recorded chiropractic adjustment was performed on September 18, 1895, by Dr. Daniel David Palmer, a Canadian-born teacher and helter. Dr. Palmer was, at the time, studying the cause and effect of disease. His patient was Harvey Lillard, a janitor working in the same building as Dr. Palmer in Davenport, Iowa. Mr. Lillard, who had complained of hearing problems for over 17 years, allowed Dr. Palmer to examine his spine. Dr. Palmer discovered a "lump" on Mr. Lillard's back and suspected that a vertebra might be out of place, which he then repositioned the vertebra with a gentle thrust. After several such treatments, much of Mr. Lillard's hearing was restored.

Since Dr. Palmer's first chiropractic adjustment, the art and science of chiropractic has progressed significantly. Today, advanced diagnostic procedures, sophisticated equipment, scientific research, and the growing acceptance among other health care professionals makes chiropractic a popular health care choice

FLOURISHING...

How do you determine whether your life is going well? Whether you're happy and fulfilled vs. merely going through the paces? Whether you're growing and developing as a person vs. merely expressing more of the same old, same old? In short, when the alarm goes off in the morning does the prospect of a new day cause you to be filled with excited anticipation and a sense of being actively engaged? Or do you wish you could bury yourself beneath the blankets and put off your daily routine for as long as possible?

Cold and Flu Season

Season two of the AMC television series "The Walking Dead" offices and filming are in Coweta County this year. What an honor to have the top rated television series here in our community! It has been exciting to see and hear about all the actors and which locations they are using. Never would I have expected myself to say, I've started watching the series.

It occured to me that if I were to describe myself on how I looked and felt when a cold and flu attacked would be as a "zombie" or "walking dead". For sure, I want to do all I can to avoid it - don't you? Whether we like it or not - cold and flu season is upon us. Here are some nutritional blockbusters that help fight colds and flu: garlic, water, vitamin C, zinc and beta carotene.


GARLIC: garlic won’t do much for your breath, but it helps prevent cold and flu viruses from invading and damaging your tissues. It bolsters your immune system.

WATER: prevents dehydration. Your body’s first defense system is the mucous membranes lining the upper respiratory tract and they work best when they are moist.

VITAMIN C: helps to shorten the length of time you suffer from symptoms of cold or flu. Good sources are: sweet red peppers, green peppers, strawberries, grapefruit, lemons, limes, and cantaloupe.


ZINC: getting enough of this mineral may help reduce your risk of infection caused by bacteria and viruses. Sources: turkey, shellfish, beans, barley, and wheat.

BETA CAROTENE: beta carotene converts into Vitamin A by your body and helps you to fight infections. Food sources: carrots, pumpkin, sweet potatoes, kale, spinach, apricots, cantaloupe, mangoes, and broccoli.


Combine these sources with regular adjustments from Dr. Jason, add as little as 10 minutes a day of exercise and it'll be like you are wearing an extra protective armor! Then maybe you can avoid feeling like you are "Walking Dead" or a "Zombie" this season.


Here's to a healthy you!
