Some very interesting findings in this study. Over the course of two years participants who were part of the fasting group showed a weight loss of 10% on average as well as improved perceptions of quality of life, energy, sleep quality and libido.
Is fasting right for you? That depends and it is an idea that you and your health care professional should discuss as what works for some may not be right for you.
Using computer models, researchers studied several factors that could affect a city’s quality of life, such as how far people must travel to shop; availability and safety of bike paths; parking costs; and access to public transportation. The researchers estimate that by reducing car use by 10% and reducing the distance to public transportation by 30%, cities could expect the rates of heart disease to drop 15% and type 2 diabetes to drop by 11%.

In a nation of only 36 million people, over 5 million people turned to opioid use for their pain despite the availability of better options. Opioids should never be the first step in pain management; preventing overuse takes education of both the public who are using and the professionals prescribing these drugs.
At Aberdeen Chiropractic we are proud to be part of the solution to Canada’s opioid crisis by providing safe, effective care for back pain, neck pain and headaches. Our goal is to assess, correct and prevent your pain with a variety of interventions including Chiropractic, Acupuncture, Laser, Exercise Rehabilitation and Trigger Point Therapy.
Happy #WorldSpineDay !!!
The spine is made up of 24 bones, called vertebrae. Ligaments and muscles connect these bones together to form the spinal column. The spinal column gives the body form and function. The spinal column holds and protects the spinal cord, which is a bundle of nerves that sends signals to other parts of the body.
