 Nutrition and Supplements working with Chiropractic Care

“Nutrition goes along with the chiropractic philosophy – treating the whole person by helping the body to naturally heal,” explains Christina Caro, M.B.A., R.D., L.D., dietetic internship coordinator, Life University’s Department of Nutrition. “To neglect the diet when helping a patient is very naïve. The old saying, ‘You are what you eat,’ is somewhat true.

Chiropractors already have a background in science which should serve as a base of knowledge to understand how nutrition affects the body.  The average person knows very little about nutrition. They know the basic facts that fatty foods are bad or to avoid too much sugar, chiropractors can do a great deal in educating and motivating their patients.

 

When it comes to obtaining the vitamins and minerals your body needs, your best possible source is food.  After all, eating a richly varied diet—including plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains, and legumes—is the most natural, most enjoyable, and tastiest way I know to meet your nutritional needs.  Scientists are increasingly recognizing that, in addition to vitamins and minerals, there are other compounds found in foods—such as fiber and photochemical—that serve as powerful preventative agents, protecting your body against cancer, cardiovascular disease, and other conditions.  There are times, though, when a good diet may not be good enough.  As evidence mounts, many experts have moved away from thinking of vitamins and minerals primarily as substances needed to prevent deficiency diseases and are acknowledging their broader role in promoting optimum health.  Researchers are finding that some important vitamins and minerals are hard to get in amounts considered protective against disease through diet alone, no matter how conscientious an eater you are. 

 

Consider supplements as a long-term investment in good health: 
The money spent now on prevention is pocket change compared to the possible future expenses of medication, hospital stays and surgical procedures.

Supplement prices vary, generally depending on the quality of the product. Realize that many supplements sold in major chains may not contain quality ingredients affecting how the supplement is absorbed and utilized by your body.
