Chiropractic care is the practice of using spinal alignment to alleviate a wide variety of physical ailments, including muscle strain, neck pain, chronic back pain, and more. This is accomplished by adjusting the position of the spinal column to its proper shape, providing a non-invasive solution for pain relief. With this in mind he spends a great amount of time educating and encouraging people to take an active role in their health care. As a father, Dr. Truax understands how busy life can get and the importance of maintaining good health. “As busy as life gets we cannot take our health for granted. We owe it to ourselves and our families to stay at the top of our game. Through regular visits to your chiropractic you can optimize your health and enjoy life to the fullest.”

Don't let the Winter months get the best of you and deter your health goals. Use these healthy soup recipes, which are not only filling, but equally nutritional as they are savory and delicious.

In a new study by the Luxembourg Institute of Health, researchers found that diets low in natural fiber (not the soluble "fake" stuff added to processed foods like cereal to increase fiber content) can lead to an imbalanced microbiome and create an environment ripe for pathogens and dis-ease to thrive.

You need probiotics, of course, but they don't really work without fiber.

"Yo-yo dieting" is the name given to diet options that lead to drastic weight loss, but which cause a lot of the weight to be regained once the diet stops. It's estimated that 7% of men and 10% of women in the U.S. resort to restrictive diets in their endless struggle to lose weight. Though they do lose weight initially, they end up regaining it. This is the "yo-yo effect" which, according to a new study, can be a lot more harmful for your metabolism than you'd expect.
