Save Your Heart in a Way No One Else Will

This video made by Dr. Darren Schmidt is 2 years old, but the information is still very important. What strikes me is that people are unaware of the Coronary Artery Calcium Score.  It is not invasive and is not a budget wrecker if you pay out of pocket. 

Are you more important that the bureaucratic policy pushers who don't care about you personally?

He makes an important point about calcium build up.  It is a sign that the body tried many times to heal the body and used calcium as a last resort to provide protection.  Calcium does not belong in the heart, as the heart is a muscle that does not get the opportunity to rest like a skeletal muscle.  You already know calcium in the wrong places just as the eyes, kidneys, joints, are problematic, but in the heart it's more than problematic.  He mentioned the patient who had TB and calcium formed an inactive abscess type covering in order to wall off the infection from the lung. 

If you have calcium in the wrong places, thank your body for working hard for you.  Next, give your body better attention and take the steps he mentions to protect your heart.  

Also remember your brain directs the sympathetic nervous system to make the heart work harder when it is necessary, so take care of your brain, as well.  Dr. Schmidt's recommendations also help the brain.  

As far as diabetes goes, all disease is a form of diabetes.  You must approach your diet in this manner.   The insulin test he mentions is much more accurate than a fasting blood glucose or A1C.  These two tests can  be normal on a lab report, but you could still have diabetes and not know it because the body can tolerate dietary insult for a long time before  tissue break down occurs or insulin is at an exhaustive level.  

Let's talk about it at your next visit and set up a ketolox phasing plan that fits your situation.

P.S.  A heart cath can now be done through the wrist.  Still, it is invasive. 

Get adjusted this week.  Nothing else resets the nervous system like a chiropractic adjustment....

Insulin Resistance Makes the World Go Round

(Image: medium.com)
Call to Action: Understanding the insidious nature of insulin resistance will help you work on the life style habits that will make your chiropractic more profound and effective.

Insulin resistance is a strong driver of the economy.  Look at it from childhood to older ages:

The insulin resistant pregnant mom gives birth to a baby suffering from nutrition deficiencies.   (Also, born with subluxations.)

The insulin resistant toddler doesn't meet developmental milestones and requires different therapies.  (Probably still subluxated.)

The insulin resistant child is prone to frequent colds, asthma, and misses a lot of school.  Also, the child has learning disabilities and needs more services.  (Subluxations still there getting very comfortable.)

Already at this age, insulin resistant children are on many harsh medications that compound the problem with side effects.  (Talk about a subluxated liver.)

The insulin resistant teenager suffers injuries playing sports or may have anger and depression, feeling frustrated with fitting in.
(Subluxations at play, too.)

The insulin resistant young adult is already on a number of medications for inflammatory disorders that were unheard of two to three decades ago.  (Persistant subluxations.)

The insulin resistant woman has trouble getting pregnant or carrying a child to term.  (Subluxations.)

As insulin resistance continues people are confounded by the level of joint pain they have, stubborn body fat stuck around the middle, and lack of energy most of the day. 

The insulin resistant person needs hip replacements, stents, and other surgeries in order to remain active.  They often speak to their friends about strange disease names no one used to hear of such as lupus, irritable bowel, sarcoidosis, vasculitis. Graves disease. 

The insulin resistant person is more likely to suffer from dementia, and need nursing home care at an unexpected early age. 

Not trying to sound like a broken record but a poorly fed brain struggles with subluxations that disrupt the healing process.

Why am I picking on insulin resistance?  Because no one pays attention to it until lab work meets the definition of diabetes.  It is not common to check someones insulin levels.  

Meanwhile, we are using so many health care dollars and taxes for child services, teachers, social workers, surgeons, nurses, not to mention police, prison, drug treatment centers, nursing homes.  

It sounds like we have a busy, robust economy. however we have more people who are on disability who are no longer in the work force.  We have many people who never made it into the work force.  Heart conditions used to be a major reason for disability, but now back pain and mental disorders far surpass that.  We can do this a better way.  The Brain First Always Way.

(Here's the article.)

And we an blame it all on insulin resistance.  The most frustrating factor is that the usual blood tests will tell you that you are not insulin resistant, and that you are not near a risk of diabetes.  This is wrong, wrong. wrong.  And we don't even test kids, at all. 

If you want to delve deeper into insulin resistance, check out this link to Joseph Kraft's youtube video. You will hear this information straight from the actual researcher who looked at insulin resistance for decades.  

While chiropractic adds nothing to the body and takes nothing away from the body, we must also consider what the body is made of.  If the body is comprised of inflammation, and poorly formed tissues (due to the Standard American Diet),  we are not working in a useful medium.  We need clear neurological pathways and healthy receptive tissues that can receive the information we have opened up through the chiropractic adjustment. 

Chiropractic can help you improve your energy, sleep and decrease your appetite so it's easier to tackle insulin resistance.

What is Dr. Lisa's Brain First Always Protocol?

This Week: Why Pep Talks Don't Work

In this week's online coaching membership, the topic is Dopamine Disaster.

You can't always pep talk yourself out of a problem.  You may feel bad about yourself because your brain needs dopamine.

When the brain neurotransmitter, dopamine is low, people feel unmotivated. We may feel critical of ourselves or others who seem to be performing poorly with a lazy attitude. But there is a possibility you or someone you care about is suffering from an energy crisis that is nutritionally based.

Folks in this situation may also feel poorly and do things poorly:

-learned helplessness

-“in a rut”

-often procrastinate

-lose interest in previously enjoyable activities

-have low interest in learning new things

-follow through poorly on therapies or tasks due to not having enough energy (professionals call it non-compliant)

-feel worthless

-feel anxious

-avoid social gatherings

People can also suffer from physical problems as well:

-cold hands and feet

-fungus in the nails

-anemia from low iron, low B9, low B12, low B6

-females with heavy periods

-Magnesium deficiency

Here's the tricky part, people give up too easily because the typical healing modalities make them feel worse, so a gradual approach needs to be utilized.

How well are you Feeding Your Brain?

The Brain Fog Warning

See you at the table,
The Adjusting Table

Don't Eat Fruit

Call to Action:  Understand why fruit is just another addictive substance that adds more nerve stress to your body via an insulin response that increases inflammation slamming more chemical insult on a subluxated spine. And then, don't eat any more fruit.  (Ask me about the ketolox phasing program for brain health.)

One thing that changes your brain is an addiction that fries your dopamine neurotransmitters and making it difficult to experience that natural energy we were born with.  

If you are living in modern America, you are addicted to carbohydrates and it is ignored until you become obese or diabetic.  

How do you "feed your brain?" I prefer nutrients, not toxins. 
Listen to Dr. Robert Cwyes give a very short and sweet (sorry) explanation.

Everything Your Body Does Is Normal

Everything Your Body Does is Normal.  Allow me to explain in Episode 27.

I'd prefer you not say your body is doing something wrong. It sets a negative pattern in your mind. If you feel you are always wrong, how can you feel strong and successful?

If something is wrong, we need to look at our beliefs about the body's function. Are we reacting to symptoms superficially or looking deeper at the real reasons the body responds in a certain way? Also, a lot of it has to do with the way we treat our bodies. Your body is doing everything logically and correctly to handle stressful exposures. Stress does not take a day off and we shouldn't just assume our health works on autopilot. Our innate intelligence is very powerful, but it can only work through healthy, receptive tissue. How do you maintain and protect your body? Check out the Brain First Always program.
