Nutrition Info
Vitamin C helps make plant-based iron more absorbable, says
nutritionist Stacy Kennedy of the Dana Farber Cancer Institute. It actually converts much of the
plant-based iron into a form that's similar to what's found in fish and red
meats. Kennedy suggests getting
your Vitamin C from citrus fruits, leafy green vegetables, strawberries,
tomatoes, bell peppers, and broccoli, and getting plant-based iron from leeks,
beet greens, kale, spinach, mustard greens, Swiss chard, and fortified cereals. According to Diane Birt, PhD, a professor at Iowa State
University and a food synergy expert, the specific amino acids absent in wheat
are actually present in peanuts. You need, and very rarely receive in one meal, the complete chain of
amino acids (the best form of protein) to build and maintain muscle, especially
as you get older. In short, while
this combo exhibits only what Birt calls a "loose definition: of food synergy,
it gives good evidence that a peanut-butter sandwich isn't junk food it it's
prepared with whole-wheat bread (not white) and eaten in moderation (once a
day). So enjoy a peanut-butter
sandwich right after a workout instead of drinking a terrible
gym-rat-shake. Just make sure the
peanut butter doesn't have added sugar, chemical ingredients you can't
pronounce, or cartoon characters on the label.

Getting To The Cause
Some time ago, a friend of mine was at a family get-together. As was
customary whenever his family gets together, he set up his portable adjusting
table and checked everyone. He noticed one of the guests watching him
very closely as he checked and adjusted his family. As he was finishing,
she introduced herself as a physical therapist and asked, "Should we start
fighting now or should I wait until you're finished?" Of course she was only kidding, but his response confused her. "Why
should we fight at all?" he asked. "After all, we have entirely different objectives when we
work on people, don't we?" She seemed genuinely perplexed. "Isn't your objective to get your
patient's spine to move more normally and get them out of pain?" she asked,
"That's my goal too - to remove the cause
of the pain, not just treat the symptom!" "That's a very common misconception," he replied. "You see, chiropractic
is not about eliminating the cause of
disease as many people think. Rather, it is an approach that actually
focuses on restoring the cause of health by balancing the nerve
system and allowing the body's Innate
Intelligence to be expressed as completely as possible. Of course, we
do this by working on the spine." She replied, "I've never heard it put that way before. You say that you
actually focus on restoring the cause of
health, rather than trying to get rid
of the cause of disease - is that right?" "That's right!", he said. "Wow, I like the way that sounds; but what's
the difference?" He explained to her: "It's simple," "The Innate Wisdom of the body is perfect
in every way. It always knows what to do in order to help you function at
your absolute best. If that means it needs to digest your food, heal your
lungs, relax your neck muscles, or make new spleen tissue, then that's what it
will do! And, it always heals whatever most needs healing first. All chiropractors do is make sure
there is a normal flow of Life Force between your brain and all the parts of
your body. After that, it's just a matter of time and of trust that your
Innate Intelligence is on the job adapting, healing and growing you into the
maximal expression health and life. You see, chiropractors don't pretend
to know more than the God-given perfection you have inside of you when it comes
to what needs to be done in your body. Chiropractors simply understand
that the power that made your body will, organize, heal and grow your body
continuously, throughout your life, if given the chance." My point in telling you this story is not to highlight the differences between
a physical therapist and a chiropractor. It's to ask you why YOU are
here. Are you here to "get to the cause of your problem?" Or, are
you here because you have a greater understanding? Are you truly aware of
the perfection you have within you? And, do you know that when it has the chance to express itself as fully
as possible, health and happiness are automatic?
Do you have a great enough understanding of how this perfection works to
be patient while trusting that whatever needs to heal first is in fact healing,
even if it's not what you'd like to see heal first? It's true, we chiropractors DO get to
the cause, but what we help to cause is the progressive actualization of your
body's own natural state of vibrant health and happiness... this comes from the
full expression of your Life Force! We don't eliminate the cause of disease; we help restore the cause of
health!

Tidbits
Many Cancers may be Preventable
According to a new report from the World Cancer Research
Fund (WCRF) and the American Institute for Cancer Research (AICR), about
one-third of the 12 most common adult cancers may be preventable by making
healthy lifestyle choices. The report did not include cancers that could be
prevented by not smoking. Cancer is the second-leading cause of death among Americans,
surpassed only by heart disease. Based on projections by the World Health
Organization (WHO), cancer deaths will likely continue to rise, with an
estimated nine million deaths from cancer in 2015 and 11.4 million deaths from
cancer in 2030. The panel of 23 experts concluded that being physically active,
maintaining a healthy weight and eating a nutritious diet may help prevent
various types of cancer. In the United States, endometrial cancers, esophageal
cancers and cancers of the mouth, pharynx and larynx were found to be the most
preventable. (See table below.) Estimated Percentage of Cancers that may be Preventable These estimates do not represent an individual person's risk
of developing cancer. Instead, they reflect the general population's estimated
chance of developing the disease. WCRF/AICR also emphasizes that there is no
way to completely eliminate the risk because many factors beyond a person's
control (such as family history) may affect cancer risk. The report also includes recommendations for governments,
schools, workplaces media and other organizations to encourage healthy
lifestyles. For instance, the panel recommends that schools and workplaces
promote walking and bicycling and eliminate unhealthy foods in cafeterias. They
also stress the need for food and beverage companies to reduce the cost of
healthy products and to stop promoting unhealthy products to children.
