Ritalin
Never Forget!
Never forget that 1 in every 30 children are being prescribed Psychiatric drugs. 186 deaths have been directly linked to Ritalin alone in a 10 year period. These drugs are the classified in the same group of drugs as opium, morphine and cocaine. Are we setting our children up for a successful future?
Question everything, and Never Forget!
This video expresses it all! WE MUST NEVER FORGET!
GMO FACT #1 – “genetically modified ORGANISM (GMOs) are food you eat such as corn and soy that were manipulated in a laboratory by forcing DNA from a completely foreign species into them. If this doesn’t scare you, I don’t know what will. Furthermore, this foreign DNA may include virus, bacteria such as e coli bacteria, an insect, an animal or even humans resulting in traits that would be virtually impossible to obtain with natural processes. 75% of the processed food in the US is GMO. While 50 other countries require labeling of GMOs, the US prevents us from labeling GMOs.” – Pamm Larry (non-GMO Activist)
What we need to know is companies like monsanto who manipulate our foods, go against nature – aren’t doing any safety studies to show the LONG TERM effects that GMO can have on our environment and within our bodies! It’s completely insane… Time and time again they will tell you it’s safe and that they are working on “solving the food crisis.” These are all lies and propaganda… The FDA allows companies like Monsanto to be able to produce food that is hazardous to our health and they don’t have to label it as GMO… So ask yourself, is that tomatoe your eating; is that non-GMO? Is that seedless watermelon your eating good for you? I don’t put myself our my family at risk. These are the questions we SHOULD be asking ourselves because it’s about our health, it’s about the health of our families and ultimately it’s about our health as a country and world.
What’s even more interesting in this whole ordeal is that Michael Taylor, former VP and attorney for the biggest GMO Company, Monsanto, is now the Deputy Commissioner at the FDA. Many other former Monsanto executives are now in the FDA and USDA. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas is a former Monsanto attorney. FDA chose to disregard strong warnings of FDA scientists and allowed GMOs in our food supply without any health studies or even labeling. Monsanto gives generous campaign contributions and uses heavy lobbying to politicians. It’s a revolving door Government that we have.
DO YOU THINK IT’S OK THAT THE PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANIES, FOOD COMPANIES OR OTHER INDURSTRIAL COMPANIES HAVE REPRESENTIVES WORKING FOR CONGRESS PROTECTING THE INTERESTS OF THOSE COMPANIES. It’s called a CONFLICT OF INTEREST…. And, this sort of revolving door politics happens all of the time. SO, me personally, I opt out. I choose the high road instead of the low road. I choose to eat only organic food. I avoid anything processed, anything with soy, I avoid eating corn because my health is my number one priority but more importantly I don’t want to support an industry who cares nothing for my health.
BUY ORGANIC, KNOW YOUR LOCAL FARMERS AND SUPPORT THE ONES WHO DO THINGS NATURALLY…

Does my managed care program cover Chiropractic care? This is a question that we hear very often in our chiropractic office. Here is an overview of how most managed care companies work and their relationship to chiropractic and other wellness issues.
There is a wellness movement in society. According to a Harvard Medical School study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, in 1997 there were 629 million visits made to non-medical practitioners as opposed to 386 million visits to medical practitioners. This number is up from 425 million visits to holistic healthcare providers in 1990. Wow, that’s what I call growth!
This 204 million visit increase to health care providers outside the medical system, primarily chiropractors, has caused managed care companies and insurance companies to target holistic health care providers for inclusion in their managed care programs. When this happens, the HMO’s and managed care organizations set guidelines for that particular doctors’ practice.
Should doctors accept this role with a managed care insurance company; the doctor will no longer be working for you, the patient. That doctor will now be working for the insurance company.
For that doctor to stay in good standing with the insurance company who will be referring them lots of patients, that doctor will have to restrict your care. Prior to making decisions that support your individual needs, that doctor will need to get approval from somebody in an office who has never examined you, and knows nothing about your health goals.
As long as this is the protocol and hierarchy of the system, managed care will never be able to keep you healthy! Your health is your responsibility.
Think about it, if managed care assumed control over your wellness, it would look something like this…
• Thirty-six year old female:
Premium $325 per month will buy you one 12 ounce glass of bottled water per week, one 18 minute treadmill work out two times per week, one multivitamin every three days, one serving of green vegetables twice a week, and one chiropractic adjustment every four weeks.
• Forty-four year old male:
Premium $295 per month will buy you two 9 ounce glasses of bottled water per week, one 16 minute treadmill work out two times per week, one multivitamin every other day, two servings of green vegetables a week, and one chiropractic adjustment every three weeks.
• Four year old child:
Premium $98 dollars per month, one 6 oz. glass of bottled water every four days, one multivitamin per week and one chiropractic adjustment every two weeks.
While these examples might be made up, how different would it be in real life if managed care controlled your wellness? On the other hand, if you only implemented the things in your life that managed care said they would pay for, wouldn’t your wellness plan fall way short of its mark? Sure it would.
Medical insurance was designed for disease management, not wellness care. You and your family deserve much more than that, don’t you think? Absolutely!
Our chiropractic office has created an opportunity for you and your family to participate in true health and wellness care. We have adopted special financial policies that make ongoing chiropractic wellness care affordable for you and your entire family.
Every person deserves to be is healthy as possible! This includes you and this absolutely includes your family. Reclaim responsibility for your family’s health and wellness. Join the millions of other families who have chosen to make chiropractic a part of their lifestyle.
