Text Neck is Hurting Your Heart 📱💔

Your posture isn't just causing neck pain - it's affecting your HEART!

Forward head posture and rounded shoulders:
🚫 Compress the nerves to your heart (T1-T5)
🚫 Reduce lung capacity by up to 30%
🚫 Force your heart to work harder to oxygenate your body
🚫 Keep you in constant "stress mode"

For every inch your head moves forward, you add 10 POUNDS of pressure on your spine and reduce oxygen to your entire body! 😮

Your heart has to compensate for poor posture... every. single. day.

The solution? Restore proper alignment! When your spine is aligned and moving properly, your heart gets clear signals and doesn't have to work overtime 💚

Check your posture right now. Ears over shoulders. Shoulders over hips. Your heart will thank you! ❤️

Everyone focuses on lowering cholesterol.

But cholesterol isn't the problem - it's your body's RESPONSE to a problem.

Lowering it without addressing WHY it's elevated creates more issues than it solves.

Here's what cholesterol actually does:

✓ Raw material for ALL steroid hormones (estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, cortisol, DHEA)
✓ Makes Vitamin D
✓ Builds every cell membrane in your body
✓ Makes bile (needed to digest fats and fat-soluble vitamins)
✓ Critical for brain function (25% of your body's cholesterol is in your brain)

When cholesterol is elevated, your body is responding to:

🔬 Chronic inflammation (hs-CRP >1.0) Your body makes MORE cholesterol to repair inflamed, damaged tissues and cell membranes.

🔬 Oxidative stress (high LDH and Homocysteine) Cholesterol acts as an antioxidant. When oxidative stress is high, your body produces more cholesterol to protect cells.

🔬 Insulin resistance (fasting insulin >5, elevated triglycerides) When insulin is chronically elevated, your liver produces more cholesterol. Fix insulin, cholesterol drops.

🔬 Hypothyroidism (low Free T3) Low thyroid function slows cholesterol clearance. Your body isn't making too much - it's not clearing it efficiently.

🔬 Poor liver function (elevated ALT, AST, GGT) Your liver regulates cholesterol. When liver function is impaired, cholesterol regulation fails.

Cholesterol is the messenger, not the problem.

Cholesterol isn't bad. It's essential.

STOP blaming cholesterol! Here's what's REALLY happening:

Cholesterol is actually a HEALING substance. Your body sends it to inflamed areas in your blood vessels like a bandaid on a cut 🩹

The problem isn't the bandaid (cholesterol)... it's the CUT (inflammation)!

What causes the inflammation?
🔥 Chronic stress and nerve interference
🔥 Processed foods and seed oils
🔥 Toxins and environmental triggers
🔥 Subluxations disrupting your healing response

When your nervous system is stuck in "fight or flight," your body can't heal and inflammation runs wild!

Chiropractic care reduces nervous system stress so your body can HEAL instead of just managing damage 💚

Ready to address the root cause? Let's start with your spine!

Cholesterol is your body's repair mechanism.

When your arterial walls get damaged—from inflammation, oxidative stress, blood sugar spikes—your body sends cholesterol to patch the damage.

Think of it like spackle repairing a hole in your wall. The spackle didn't CREATE the hole. It's there to FIX it.

Blaming cholesterol for heart disease is like blaming firefighters for fires because they're always at the scene.

The cholesterol isn't the problem. The DAMAGE is the problem.

And for women, this matters even more.

Because the things that damage your arterial walls? They're often connected to the hormonal and metabolic shifts women experience.

Chronic stress that elevates cortisol and creates inflammation.

Insulin resistance that comes from years of yo-yo dieting and poor sleep

Oxidative stress from damaged mitochondria, nutrient deficiencies, and a dysregulated nervous system.

Inflammation from gut dysfunction, food sensitivities, or chronic immune activation.

When estrogen drops in menopause, you lose some of its protective cardiovascular effects.

Your cells become more vulnerable to oxidative damage. Inflammation increases. Cholesterol goes up to compensate.

Your body isn't broken. It's responding.

So instead of just lowering cholesterol with a statin, ask: What's damaging my arterial walls?

Change the cellular environment, improve your heart health.

Support your cells. Reduce the damage. The cholesterol takes care of itself.

120/80... but what does it actually MEAN?

Your blood pressure isn't random - it's your nervous system responding to:
⚡ Nerve interference from subluxations
😰 Chronic stress and cortisol
🔥 Inflammation in your blood vessels
😴 Poor sleep and recovery
🥘 Diet and lifestyle habits

Here's the truth: You can't medicate your way out of a nervous system problem!

Your body is DESIGNED to maintain healthy blood pressure... when your nervous system is functioning properly 💚

HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE? Your neck might be the problem!

Research published in the Journal of Human Hypertension found that adjusting the Atlas (C1 vertebra) produced the same effect as TWO blood pressure medications... without the side effects! 🤯

Here's why: The nerves exiting your upper neck control how tightly your blood vessels constrict. When C1 is misaligned, those nerves get interfered with and your vessels stay constricted = elevated pressure!

Your body isn't broken - it's responding to nerve interference! 🧠

Everyone's focused on lowering cholesterol.

Take a statin.

Cut the eggs.

Avoid fat.

But nobody's asking: WHY is it elevated?

Cholesterol isn't the problem. It's your body's RESPONSE to a problem.

Here's what cholesterol actually does:

Makes all your hormones (estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, cortisol).

Makes vitamin D.

Builds every cell membrane.

Makes bile to digest fats.

And 25% of your cholesterol is in your BRAIN.

Cholesterol isn't bad. It's essential.

When it's elevated, your body is responding to:
→ Chronic inflammation �
→ Oxidative stress �
→ Insulin resistance �
→ Poor T4 to T3 conversion �
→ Poor liver function

Cholesterol is the messenger, not the problem.

A few markers I test:

Inflammation
Insulin
Free T3
Liver function
Oxidative stress

Because lowering cholesterol without fixing THOSE doesn't help. It creates new problems.

This is why statins backfire.

You block cholesterol production but haven't fixed the inflammation, insulin resistance, or cellular dysfunction.

Now you can't make hormones, vitamin D, or bile. You get muscle pain, memory issues, hormone chaos.

And the real problem? Still there.

You can't fix downstream problems with upstream dysfunction.

Everyone lowers the number.

I fix WHY it's elevated.

Different approach. Different results.

Your vagus nerve is like a calming superhighway between your brain and heart ✨

When it's working properly:

❤️ Heart rate stays balanced
😌 Stress decreases
🩺 Blood pressure normalizes
⚡ Your body heals and repairs

But subluxations in your upper cervical spine can interfere with vagus nerve function, keeping your body stuck in "stress mode."

The result? Your heart works overtime even when you're trying to relax!

Chiropractic adjustments help restore proper vagus nerve function so your heart can finally catch a break 💚

Ready to activate your body's natural healing? Let's start with your spine!

Did you know your heart is 100% controlled by your nervous system?

Every. Single. Heartbeat.

Your heart rate, blood pressure, and circulation are all regulated by nerve signals traveling through your spine.

When those signals are interfered with by subluxations, your heart has to work HARDER than it should.

Here's what controls your heart:

🧠 Your brainstem and autonomic nervous system
🦴 Nerves in your upper neck (C1-C2)
💪 Nerves in your mid-back (T1-T5)
😰 Your stress response (fight or flight)

Think about it: No amount of medication can restore proper nerve communication!

This Heart Health Month, show your heart some love by getting your spine checked 💚
