What is the biggest threat to our health?
For a moment think about what would happen if all of a sudden medicine and surgeries were eliminated! No more prescription drugs and no more over-the counter remedies. All of a sudden the option of popping a pill was taken away. Say goodbye to the idea of calling the doctor to have surgery to remove something. What would you do? Would you sit back and worry about the fact that you no longer could lower your cholesterol by a couple of points? Would you dwell on the idea that you would have to keep your tonsils and wait for the inflammation to go down?
The biggest threat to our health and really to our LIFE is inaction.
We know what it takes to be healthy; yet there are many people that simply do not take the proper action to produce health. They would rather pop a pill and cover up symptoms or have surgery to remove something that is not working properly. There is no such thing as a quick fix! Healing takes time inside the body. Popping a pill is like putting a piece of tape over the oil light in our car so we do not see that the oil needs to be changed. This may work temporarily, however if we do not address the CAUSE of the situation, very little is accomplished. Not to mention the side effects that accompany consuming these drugs.
In a study by Maggie Fox, taken from America Online, they found that it is actually more dangerous to take medicine than it is do some commonly perceived unsafe tasks. Taking aspirin daily is as dangerous as driving a car or working as a firefighter. In a year’s time, you would be safer flying occasionally, than taking medicine daily. These claims are based on research that calculates the average number of deaths per 100,000 people per year.
Surgery is seen as a viable option. Did you know that according to the former U.S. Surgeon General, C. Everett Coupe, 70% of all diagnoses are incorrect!!! Think about this for a second. When you go to a restaurant, if they messed up your order 70% of the time would you go back? If you hired someone to add on to your house, and they messed up 70% of the work plan, would you hire them again? When you made a phone call, if 70% of the time the call was sent to the wrong number, would you be satisfied with AT&T? If NASA miscalculated the trajectory of a shuttle by 70% what harm would that do? If airplanes misjudged the landing by 70% would it not be disastrous? If you missed 70% of questions on a test, we would all still be in school! When you think about it this way, you may reconsider your viewpoint. There is another way to achieve health.
What if there was something you could do that was good for you 100% of the time? Guess what, there is! Specific chiropractic adjustments clear your body of interference that does not allow you to be your best. This is beneficial 100% of the time. Anyone can receive a chiropractic adjustment: old, young, male, female, sick, healthy, poor, rich, big, small, etc. It is a fact, that if you remove any interference in the body not allowing it to work at its best, it will function better, which will lead to better health!
So, if you are a numbers person, which option appears to be the best to you? It is really a no-brainer if you do the math. Choose a healthier route to a better LIFE!
What is the greatest threat to our health? Is it poor eating, lack of exercise, little sleep, negative attitude, an interrupted nerve supply? If you pick all the above then your correct. All of these play a role in your health, however there is something more dangerous. It is something called INACTION! This is the greatest threat to us. We all know things we can do to be healthier, yet many do not take the appropriate steps to make it happen. Take action now and make a change for the better!
