OVEREATING?
Grandpa loved to tell stories. During our family visits to his home in New Jersey, we were a captive audience. One story in particular changed forever the way I thought about food.

I hear these wonderful exclamations from patients every day. Some patients even throw the word “magician” around. My father, also a doctor of chiropractic, has had me as a patient ever since I was a baby. He amazed me, inspiring similar exclamations. Once his magic fingers were on me, he quickly found tender spots I never knew I had. Even though I felt fine and was receiving preventive care, I always felt better afterward! It was like he had special laser-guided sensors in his fingers... a super power that I would later learn how to harness.

Mrs. Lamb tells everyone that she LOVES her doctor! Sometimes she is lucky enough to be kept waiting in Dr. Badside’s reception room for TWO hours past her appointment time. To top it off, the receptionist keeps to herself and never smiles. This gives Mrs. Lamb the opportunity to catch up on all the old, torn fashion magazines and Hollywood gossip rags from 2008 that are spread across the table in the corner of the room. There Mrs. Lamb sits, turning the dog eared pages until, with a whistle in her voice, the receptionist announces that the doctor is ready and herds Mrs. Lamb into a room down the hall.

Yes, you ARE a victim of the modern age! You spend much of your day banished for hours sitting in traffic, locked and chained to a work station or your home computer, and captivated on the couch watching TV. Your body is sustained in awkward positions. Your posture is crooked, compromised and fatiguing. Your neck cocks forward, causing your muscles to grip desperately to the back of your skull. The bands of connective tissue and muscles in your pelvis shorten and tighten for hours while you sit oddly perched on a chair. When the day brings needed breaks to your sedentary punishment, you suffer the results. Standing slowly, you teeter to a balance. Your body rebels against further movement. Like millions of people in your predicament, you suffer from pain in the arms, wrists, hands, feet or legs.

You secure your SCUBA mask and jump through the water’s surface, leaving only a splash as you begin your 100 meter descent into the watery depths. The water is murky and filled with unforeseen horrors that can rip the life from your body in a second. Sharks. The sharp steel of shipwrecks. Gear malfunctions. Such territory requires split second decisions for survival. You feel the chilling temperatures reach your bones, and wonder in panic, “Did I check all of my equipment? Tanks? Regulator? Where is my partner? Where are the sharks? Am I fully prepared?” Millions navigate other depths that carry as much complexity and danger. Frequently, they do so without planning. Just blind faith and a hope for the best. These waters are filled with white coats, prescriptions and procedures. Next time you dive into the waters of health care, be PREPARED!

Ever see the majestic figure of a Humpback whale off the bow of a boat? Ever feel the rush of hitting the lottery? Ever experience the accomplishment of pushing to the end of a marathon? Ever shout with joy from winning a reality game show? Ever gaze down at the earth from Mount Everest? I certainly hope that you polish off many of the items that fill your bucket list. Unfortunately, another bucket list exists with items that most Americans will experience, but wish they wouldn’t! This list contains events that embarrass, terrify and hurt. I may not be able to help you avoid producing an unexpected bodily sound at a board meeting, or keep bad luck such costs, one must examine treatment options where value for the dollar is brought into play. This is especially important in today’s environment where health care spending is spiraling out of control.

Picture American healthcare as a tin of fish. We pay for caviar, but are we receiving canned mackerel? Statistics from 2009 show that we cast out $7,960 per person per year. We are grossly outspending the rest of the world. Sweden pays $3722 per year per person. The savings alone could buy every U.S. citizen a new Volvo every 10 years! Is greater health being gained from shelling out all those clams?

Imagine you are a doctor. You have just completed years of grueling tests and countless hours in the classroom. You have new shoes, a pressed shirt, caring eyes and a soothing voice. With a thirst to start alleviating the suffering of humankind, you eagerly await your first new patient. Today is your day, and two people are on your schedule for their first visits.

She was already there when I arrived... huffing and puffing... sporting stretchy black garb while a distressed expression blanketed her face. What was she thinking? Could it be,“This is wonderful! Who hoo, I love being chained to a treadmill for FIVE hours each week!!” I don’t think so. Her body language spoke more of the desperation displayed by Superman, outstretched arms, tightly clawed hands, scrambling feet, as he crept toward safety when in the proximity of kryptonite. After I had finished my routine at the gym, I was on my way out when I saw her STILL trucking away on the treadmill. Now, sweatier and obviously exhausted, she slapped her feet on the spinning belt to nowhere with a disheartening beat - the rhythm of an army drum calling for retreat. Sound like a familiar scenario?

Jane had neck PAIN. It hurt every morning when she woke up at 5:30 and crept into the shower. Over the past months, she began adding more and more time and hotter water. She thought it would make her neck feel better. The pain returned as fast as the steam and condensation on the mirror cleared. After she came home from work in the evening, Jane’s neck felt raw, and she experienced a gripping sensation. She looked forward to falling into the couch and resting against the soft cushioned back.

The ball drops... will your New Year’s resolution hit the ground rolling or vanish as fast as the bubbles in your champagne? As you dream of a better future, many thoughts pop into your mind. Stop eating junk food! Smile more. Be more assertive. Exercise. Find love. Get rich. Regain health. Be thinner! Judging from the multitude of dust-covered elliptical machines abandoned in basements, the plethora of pills found in medicine cabinets, and gym membership cards lost in the back of thousands of underwear drawers across America, resolutions often turn into junk. But you can change that - this year! By understanding patterns, your resolution can be a reality.

Smile at the wrinkles and enjoy the movie discounts. Savor the bargain omelets at IHOP. Love the grandkids and grin with relief as you hand them back. Maturing has many perks… and many pitfalls. One health hazard that MUST be prevented, reduced or corrected is the HUMP often seen on the upper back and neck. Besides the unwanted hunched-over physical appearance, the hump can cause serious health implications… it may even shorten one’s lifespan!

On a cold November night in 1984, my father made a life-changing dinner announcement. It hit the family with the impact of Rocky’s knuckles against a frozen side of beef. Our family dinners would
never be the same. While chewing on the delicious bite of flank steak that my mom had caught in the wild hunting grounds of the local super market, I listened intently. I soon realized that I was
eating the last steak of my life... and willingly!

What is the SECRET to OBTAINING YOUR DESIRES, you ask? If you are asking any self-help or "road to success" writer, motivational speaker or empowerment guru, the answer will always include one vital process. Read ancient philosophical texts or religious writings, and the wisdom of getting what you desire would include that same ingredient: Build a clear VISION of the desired outcome or object. The use of visioning has, and has long been, a powerful tool for attracting information and the objects or state of mind and body you desire.

My first “real” patient ("real" meaning not another student!) during my internship has left lasting memories. I was in Atlanta that summer of 1991, and it was hot. Between being nervous from having the first patient ever of my new career gaze with desperation into my eyes, and the blue, polyester blend clinic jacket that covered my long-sleeve shirt and matching blue tie, the day felt even hotter!

The yearly American pilgrimage is soon to come. Like a herd of thirsty wildebeests, thousands will gather under colossal television monitors and millions of shining light bulbs, seeking to quench their thirst for resolution. Out of the grasp of hungry predators and potentially fatal stampedes, resisting crocodile-laden riverbeds (otherwise known as the streets of New York), others observe the extravaganza in the refuge of the living room. Hypnotized by the lights and sounding of the crowd, all watch. The symbolic display of time passing shoots colors through the air. A captivated crowd gasps in amazement as the large pulsating sphere drops from the sky. And so it begins. The New Year’s Ball initiates the deepest introspection that most of us partake in each year.

The only thing colder than that fall Friday evening was my attitude. I was exhausted. It had been a long week. My nights were shared with a nocturnal two-year-old. Soon the baby sitter would arrive. There was no turning back. Complaining as we left, I questioned my wife again about where we were going. Although she may have said more, I only heard “to a healing circle.” I was not in any mood to leave the house. I thought “I don’t want to go anywhere… I want to sleep!” I absolutely did not know what wonders the next hours would bring.

You are late for work. You drive fast. You fear that large intersection with the eternal red light. You know that making it while the light is green, may actually save your job, your marriage and your grandmother’s operation. Oh boy, the approaching light is a welcoming green, but the car in front of you creeps along inviting the change to red. Your white knuckles leave their perch on the wheel to react. Hand gestures fly. Primal vocalizations spew from your angry , wrinkled face as your car’s battle horn blows. You are not in control. Your emotions drag you around like a 125-pound Rottweiler chasing a squirrel. Hormone levels elevate, and immune function declines, while the heart quivers. Once at work, you yell at your undeserving spouse when she calls to say Hi. Look out kids, Daddy is having a bad day!

As a child, Denise Marandola could pinpoint the pain to her mid-back, on the right half, at the tips of her ribs. When she bent over, the bulge on that right side rose higher than on the left. Marandola was 12 when she learned she had scoliosis.
Not everyone experiences pain. Most people who have scoliosis....

Do you remember when your mom yelled at you for licking the perfluorinated compounds off the pizza box or microwave popcorn bag? I used to dread it when I opened my lunchbox only to see a tuna and mercury sandwich with a big red apple dressed in a pesticide glaze. Red dye #3 cherries and nitrite-laden lunchmeat would have been preferred. If I skipped lunch, I would be comforted to know that my toxic body burden could still be thoroughly increased by simply breathing the air! There is no escaping the many toxins and heavy metals that enter our body. The world and those in it are contaminated. This was never so evident then when scientists found the insecticide DDT (banned in the U.S. years ago) in the tissues of arctic penguins thousands of miles away from the closest sprayer. The hundreds of toxins and metals that we are exposed every day are not innocent, but can cause problems ranging from infertility, learning disabilities and autism to cancer, arthritis and allergies.

When Linda McCartney died of breast cancer, USA Today asked Fran DuRocher, M.D. to comment on her death. She said: “Breast cancer after all is a disease that affects healthy people. That’s why everybody is so surprised when they get it.”1 The Journal of the American Medical Association recently published an article titled: “Stroke In A Healthy 46-Year-Old Man.”2 Is it possible that Dr. Fran DuRocher, the American Medical Association, and most Americans are confused by what it is to be healthy compared to just not having any symptoms?

Sounds preposterous? It is! As recent as the eighteen century, scientists believed in "spontaneous generation." This means that when they saw maggots popping up out of nowhere in a garbage heap, they concluded that the maggots "spontaneously" or miraculously appeared out of thin air. Now we laugh about how off track scientists were back then. Today some doctors have the same theory. They believe that bacteria appear within the ear and cause ear infections. These bacteria also came out of nowhere and have to be attacked. Contemporary medical and chiropractic researchers know differently. Like the maggots in the garbage heap, bacteria come from a bad situation. They are nothing more than scavengers. While antibiotics may temporarily kill some bad germs (and good ones as well), chiropractic care removes the cause or the garbage. Once the ear is normalized, then the bacteria go away by themselves. Do you want to know the facts?

Were you the last picked for the recess dodge-ball team? Why do some people perform better physically? Maybe you would have been picked first if you could have found a way to awaken the Arnold Schwarzenegger within… to find a way to get the edge and perform at your peak! It is possible that some people contain only a Bill Gates or Rosanne within. Whatever person best characterizes your inner ingredients, finding the edge and reaching one’s peak performance is not only important on the field or court, but on the job, in the house, at school, etc.

Why do we get sick? Is it bad luck? Or, are we victims to be preyed upon by the millions of germs floating in the air or lining surfaces everywhere? Is it the fault of our children, friends or co-workers? Why is it that most Americans receive their first antibiotic prescription within their first year of life? Is it because we were born without amoxicillin or penicillin glands? Why is it that some people are rarely ill or get over colds in no time? The real question is: is it the seed or the soil?

I was participating in a community health fair and I met a woman with a troubling history. During the screening she started to describe the last 10 years of a prison-like sentence of ill health that she referred to as her life. When she was a teenager she was in a car accident that left a chronic pain in her mid-back. When I touched the spot gently she jumped off of the seat as if I placed a live wire of electricity against her.

Do we get headaches because we were born without Tylenol glands, or is it because God forgot to add enough Excedrin? Is the real issue the pain, or is it the underlying cause? There is no doubt that the pain is important to the person experiencing it. It could be the thief of one’s enjoyment of life or ability to make it through a single day out of bed! It is also the signal that an imbalance exists.

Christopher Columbus was the first person to note bizarre phenomena in the Bermuda Triangle, reporting that he observed "strange dancing lights on the horizon." The region, also know as the Devil’s Triangle, may be famous for unusual happenings and strange disappearances, but a triangle yielding more wreckage can be found in the human neck and skull.

It looks like something you would see at a NASCAR event. It's made to lock and tether. The contoured seat sports a harness with two pink terry cloth strap pads. Without the presence of stale, crushed Cheerios, one may even mistake the infant seat as a throne fit for NASA ’s next shuttle mission. Today's car seat technology for children is truly impressive. However, safety may be an illusion. The false notion that a child’s car seat forms a protective cocoon, coupled with the inability of an infant or young child to communicate his or her symptoms, or be taken seriously when a complaint is voiced, can be a dangerous combination. Injuries sustained in even minor car accidents are often hidden or ignored. Injuries may produce no outward symptoms, elude the untrained eye, alter function and rob a child of his or her full potential.

It’s the 1800’s. You are sick. The local town doc gives you an exam. After rummaging through his black bag, tossing aside a small, corked brown bottle and positioning his spectacles, your treatment begins. Wielding a metal device sporting a shiny blade, he cuts open a vein on your arm. A few pints of blood are removed in hopes of curing what ailed you. This is not a new, high copay-like deterrent designed by your HMO to limit your doctor visits, but part of the available health care of the time. Credited for contributing to George Washington’s death in 1799, the practice of bloodletting was one of many medical practices that signified the need for advancement in health care.

Could it be the hot dogs, cold beer and the pungent smell of burnt rubber? Perhaps it’s the many steps and other obstacles that exercise the thighs and legs like pistons while on the way to your seat. Or, is it simply the deafening roar of the passing cars and cheering crowds? How can NASCAR keep you fit? To help in the creation of one’s optimum weight, it is better to look at a NASCAR pit crew for the answers than to the crowded concession stands or circling drivers. Why is that? The pit crew knows fuel, parts and tires.

What happened to all the SEESAWS? Was it the bruised knees, bleeding chins or sore behinds that brought their demise? It must have been the lawyers fueled by angry parents with sobbing children. This momentous removal was necessary to protect from playground injury. On the downside, we lost a valuable educational tool when seesaws began to vanish from our neighborhoods!

In last month’s article, we took a recess to run around the playground of health. That’s because our health balances like a seesaw between greater wellness and happiness and illness and despair. The tip of the balance depends on the choices we make. Because no one can score on a playground unless he or she can see the goal, we make our best decisions when we have a clear picture of our health goal: “the perfect me.” Once that vision is ensconced in our minds, we are ready to make choices that will tip our balance toward optimum health and happiness.

Millions stand confused! A sea of supplements in the local health food store or market blinds us. Hundreds of ads, articles and friendly advice further complicate the issue. Determining the best regimen of nutritional supplements can be a mission impossible. Short of relying on “eenie meenie miney mo,” many give up by taking nothing! The purpose of this article is to encourage the use of at least one daily supplement. Perhaps the most important, and likely the most researched, it is definitely the most varied in regard to quality and price. Omega-3 fatty acids, found in fish oil, are vital for our health and well-being! These are the official “GOOD FATS.”

Oh, it’s just a little ache in the back. After days of denial or hope of retreat, the growing pain is ignored until the alarming symptoms deaden any hope of return to life-as-usual.

Earth, Fire, Air and Water can rage with MIGHTY force! Our bodies have endured the fury of these four elements since the dawn of man. Now a newer force, responsible for far greater wreckage to human health, commands our unearthly respect. It all started in 1769 in France. Nicolas Joseph Cugnot built the first steam-powered automobile. This horseless carriage soon led to the world’s newest and perhaps most devastating traumatic situation… the automobile accident!

Do you wash your hands obsessively with antibacterial soap? Spray Lysol on everything that can’t defend itself? Cringe with pursed lips at the thought of your water bottle being shared by the germ-laden mouths of friends or family? Do you cross two fingers, as though Dracula were on the way, just to ward off a coworker’s sniffle? Do you suffer from GERMAPHOBIA? Perhaps we all have a touch of germaphobia from time to time, and it’s not always a bad thing. A severe bacterial infection can be life threatening. But, not all bacteria are bad. In fact, some are absolutely vital for optimal health!

If the wisest and most skilled doctor offered you advice about your body or mind, would you take it?
-Pretend you don’t.
Again he or she offers it, but this time with greater vigor and volume!
-Still you heed NOT the warnings!
Desperately falling to one knee, the wise healer claws at your waist, and with pleading eyes, he or she begs for your final acceptance.
-Peering down in annoyance, you declare that you do not have time for these trifling warnings. You plug into your IPOD and stride away, happily shutting this healer out of your consciousness.

January of 1993 seemed like any other time in the world of health care. Pills were being dispensed, tongues depressed, arms squeezed and stethoscopes wielded. In total, 388 million visits were being made each year to primary care physicians. On January 28th, the medical community surprisingly learned that its patients were making visits to other health care professionals as well. Research, published by Harvard Medical School doctor David M. Eisenberg in the New England Journal of Medicine, estimates that 425 million visits to providers of unconventional therapy were being made each year. That is 37 million more visits than made to primary care physicians! With this revelation, we see that the “unconventional” forms of care, often referred to as holistic care, such as chiropractic, acupuncture, massage therapy and nutritional counseling are no longer alternative.

Imagine that, as a very young child, you were the lone survivor of a shipwreck. You were washed up on a deserted island where you miraculously survived. No phone, no lights, no motor car. Not a single luxury. Like Robinson Crusoe, it's primitive as can be. I think you get the point. Now, pretend that you are discovered and brought to the mainland. You are astonished by all of the technology of modern society, particularly, the doorbell! Pushing a button here makes a chime or ring over there. Incredible! With this revelation, you are ready to understand the source of radiating symptoms into your arms, thighs and/or legs.
