Dear Patient and Friend,
Health care experts agree that most human maladies can be prevented or avoided with better lifestyle decisions. The two biggest killers of our people, heart disease and cancer, could largely be eliminated if we chose habits that supported good health – eating good food, no smoking, keeping the body fit and a few other basic choices would cut the prevalence of serious illness considerably.
But why do we actually get sick in the first place? It’s for one simple reason – our bodies are designed to work properly, as long as nothing interferes, but there is constant interference in the form of stress – physical, chemical and emotional stresses that our bodies must deal with to survive.

Dear Patient and Friend,
Heart disease has been our worst killer for decades. Traditionally, we wait until signs and symptoms of heart disease occur, and then we take medications until the system fails, leading to surgery and whatever. Some may need this, but there’s a way to intervene before health deteriorates, without the downside risk of these usual methods.
You may have heard of the “Mediterranean diet,” a popular eating style designed for good health and moderating weight. The guidelines are simple enough – fruits and vegetables, seafood, moderate dairy and wine, and reduced or occasional meat. But the centerpiece of the Mediterranean diet is olive oil – frying foods in it, dressing your salads with it, and creatively finding as many clever applications as you can.
It turns out that olive oil is one of the healthiest parts of this diet – and the reason for that is the large amounts of oleic acid found in olives.

Dear Patient and Friend,
A new study out of South Korea examined the brains of 68 healthy seniors, aged 59 to 84, to compare their biological age to their functional age, in other words, the way their brains are currently performing.
As you would expect, there were those who exercised their brains more than others, as part of their lifestyle, with games, creative thinking and artistic endeavors. Others interfered with their best brain function with dietary indiscretion, smoking habits and lack of mental and physical challenges.

Dear Patient and Friend,
Most people accept that chiropractic care is a great way to get well from all kinds of painful conditions, like back pain, neck pain, headaches, knee or shoulder injuries, and so on. As valuable as that may be, the latest research says that chiropractic does more than relieve suffering.
New studies from the Centre for Chiropractic Research in New Zealand have linked chiropractic with improved brain function. Dr. Heidi Haavik, founder and director of the Centre, has shown a connection between chiropractic adjustments and the thinking, decision-making part of the brain, the prefrontal cortex.
The more we learn, the more we understand about how important it is to take good care of your brain. And regular chiropractic care isn’t all you can do to have a healthy brain – the best brain food is healthy fat, found in foods like olives, fish, nuts, seeds and avocadoes. So, your brain is happy when you eat walnuts or sunflower seeds, when you dress your salad or cook with pure organic olive oil or dine on salmon or sardines.
Your brain doesn’t like refined sugar and other carbohydrates. So, your best diet would be low in sugars and high in healthy fats.
Your brain also doesn’t like dehydration. Make sure to drink enough water – if you feel thirsty, drink water.
Finally, your brain needs sleep, since it maintains and heals itself while you sleep. Aim for seven hours or more and your brain function will improve!
Chiropractic care, more healthy fats, less sugar, enough water and sleep – take good care of your brain, and it will take good care of you!

Dear Patient and Friend,
Most people, when offered a choice between something natural and something artificial, will go with something natural. We have an inherent sense that the natural way is the better way.
When it comes to food, we prefer natural foods over foods that are laden with chemical additives or are genetically engineered. Fresh air is more desirable than processed, conditioned air, and fresh spring water is also more desirable – in fact, even a genuine, authentic attitude is more satisfying than a phony, put-on facade.
So, is health care any different? If you have a choice between drug therapy and surgery or something more natural, which would you prefer? If you could get similar or even better results with a non-dangerous natural approach, wouldn’t you opt for that?

Dear Patient and Friend,
The New Year is a natural start point, and an invitation to take stock of your current circumstances and see where you can make your life a little better. All over the world, people are welcoming the opportunity to shift gears and choose some bad habits to break or new ones to establish.
Usually, people set New Year’s Resolutions to change something – lose weight, quit smoking, skip dessert or whatever. Often these decisions revolve around health – and rightly so, since this is one of the best places for us to invest in ourselves.
