Cholesterol
If your cholesterol is elevated, and you really want to avoid taking prescription medications to lower it, then you are on the right track.
It turns out there is NO science to prove that reducing cholesterol with statin drugs will prevent coronary artery disease! If you want proof, we can show you. Moreover, and you may not believe this either... 1. there is no science to prove that Cholesterol causes heart disease. Ever heard of the "2. French Paradox"? It is well known that the French have the highest saturated fat diets in western Europe and the lowest coronary artery disease levels. So read on carefully....
OK, if you have several other risk factors AND high cholesterol, then you may need to lower it with meds. But, most people do not need to do this. There are scientifically sound approaches to using nutritional medicine to not only lower your serum cholesterol, but also prevent coronary artery disease and stroke.
Under the laws enacted in New Jersey in January of 2011, those Doctors of Chiropractic with sufficient hours in medical nutrition are permitted not only to prescribe for you, but dispense to you the right substances to help you keep your heart and blood vessels healthy!
We can check your homocysteine and c-reactive protein levels here at Allied Chiropractic Center. Homocysteine is a toxic amino acid which becasue of its ability to break down connective tissue, eats sores in the linings of your arteries. It is when these sores get inflammed that plaques start to build up in the sores. A C-Reactive protein test will tell you if you have systemic inflammation, and we can put you on a regimen that will lower your inflammation levels. A simple combination of vitamins and another amino acid will lower your Homocysteine levels. An extract from the skin of red grapes can protect your arteries.
