Healthy Foods You Need To Avoid

Dr. Dan Welch

You should know right off the bat, that not all health foods are "healthy". Especially today, a lot of companies are creating junk food and calling it "healthy". America has a fast food mentality, we want it cheap, and we want it now. We don't want to cook it, we just want it on the table when we get there. The result has been less than flattering. In the 1960's, the only fat people where in the circus, now look at us.

Now we all know about transfat, and saturated fat, companies are making Greek yogurt in every possible way, and there's nuts, tree nuts everywhere. Olive oil is becoming the choice, where lard and Crisco ruled just 20 years ago. So we are trying to eat better, go to the gym, or at least walking everyday, we hope to live longer, and happier, thanks to all the great healthy options out there. Well... not so fast.

So what does all this healthy eating have to do with chiropractic? Well, we are what we eat. If you eat garbage everyday for 20 years, and get out of shape, unable to bend over and touch your toes, that sort of thing.. you can expect other problems to happen to you, yes you will have high blood pressure, and high cholestrol, but aside from all that, you will be putting undue pressure on your spine, which causes you spine to pinch, etc. 

Eating healthy keeps your body fit, which helps keep your spine in shape so you can move, and walk, and run, and play!

Eat right, and keep your spine in shape with regular chiropractic visits. In Reno, please consider Integrated Spinal Solutions in Caughlin Ranch, South Reno, and now in Round Mountain, Nevada.
