Is sugar causing my Headaches?

Healthy TV | Episode 068

I’ve had a grand-total of 3 migraines in my life and those are some of the worst days I can remember…

The thing patients tell me most often is that they’re frustrated about not being able to find a solution… They tell me there’ are lots of ways to mask the pain, but nothing that corrects the underlying problem.

There’s really no question about it – we live in a toxic world.

The fact is, we are born into a toxic environment. Studies have confirmed that over 200 chemicals are found in the umbilical blood of a newborn infant and radiation spills even thousands of miles away affect the food supply close to home.

We could debate the details and severity of environmental pollution, the effects on human health and the best solution to detoxify our lives but the one piece that goes completely overlooked is the body’s ability to adapt.

You see, living things, including human beings, are amazing. The human body is a self healing, self organizing, self regulating system. The hallmark of all living organisms is their ability to adapt to their environment, survive and thrive.

It’s not as simple as toxin A causes problem B. There are thousands of people who have smoked for years and did not develop cancer. This doesn’t mean the chemicals associated were not toxic; it means that person was able to adapt to the level of toxicity introduced into their body.

What can we do instead of just focusing on removing toxins? 

What does every parent want for their child?

Good news… a handful of studies have given us some insight:

• To have a positive attitude
• To be responsible
• To be capable
• To be successful
• To have good friends
• To have manners
• To be a good person

Yet, as important as each of these are, there were 3 aspirations that stood out as the most important qualities every parent wanted for their children…

Colic, ear infections, digestive disorders, anxiety, blood pressure, low energy, fibromyalgia, sleep disorders, depression, fat loss… pretty much every condition, disease and symptom under the sun has shown improvement or resolution while receiving chiropractic care.

Have you heard of this before? Is it true?
