What do you know about the nutrition of the discs in your
spine? Your Fort Wayne chiropractor is well
acquainted with them! Not less than daily is it
that your Fort Wayne chiropractor isn’t caring for spinal discs. The discs in the spine have a high metabolism
that needs oxygen, glucose, chondroitin sulfate and
minerals for its ability to avoid
degenerative change. Let us look at how Fort Wayne
chiropractic guided nutrition can ease and develop
the health of the human disc. Its nutritional balance is sensitive
and quite responsive to nutrition and Fort Wayne
chiropractic treatment.
THE ROLE OF DISC DEGENERATION
The reduction of chondroitin sulfate inside the
intervertebral disc during Fort Wayne degenerative disc disease
creates a reduction in tissue hydration, a loss
of fluid movement, cell death (aka apoptosis), a loss
of nerve growth inhibition and finally, the loss
of disc function. Aging sees a significant decrease
in chondroitin sulfate (called glycosaminoglycan) in the disc
structure. This degeneration takes place throughout the entire
disc. These changes offer an appreciation of the possible
influence of chondroitin sulfate on the disc biology and
the growth of therapeutic approaches
for disc regeneration and repair. (1) Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc takes note
of this to help
Fort Wayne chiropractic disc degeneration patients.
ANTI-INFLAMMATORY
Not only is chondroitin sulfate vital for
the health of your Fort Wayne disc and its capability to fight
degeneration, but chondroitin sulfate is a slow-acting anti-inflammatory drug
for taking care of osteoarthritis and low back pain. Fort Wayne
inflammation plays a role in disc health status. Chondroitin
sulfate doesn’t have the adverse side effects
of non–steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs that can injure
organs such as the liver, heart and kidneys. (2) A source of chondroitin
sulfate is from human umbilical cord which is revealed to bring
back the degenerative disc cells when disc cells are placed
in this umbilical fluid called Wharton’s Jelly. Interestingly
this disc cell restorative fluid comprises chondroitin
sulfate which is the chemical forming the
intervertebral disc. (3) Also of curiosity is a study showing positive outcomes using
vitamins B12, 1, and 6 in treating arm and leg pain due to intervertebral disc
degeneration and herniation. (4) Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc offers a
high-quality disc nutritional supplement that specifically contains
chondroitin sulfate and a daily multivitamin, amino acid, enzyme, and herb
formula incorporating the B vitamins to lower
inflammation. Fort Wayne chiropractic patients describe
this as valuable addition
to their Fort Wayne chiropractic care.
SPINAL MANIPULATION PLUS NUTRITION
The value of Fort Wayne chiropractic nutrition
is additionally revealed when joined
with Fort Wayne chiropractic spinal manipulation. The physiological
effects of spinal manipulation displayed that it guided
disc physiology primarily through water flow via
water diffusion and molecular transport into the disc, which are important for
the health of the disc. (5) Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc understands the combined
importance of supplying the nutrients of a good disc supplement
and daily multivitamin with Fort Wayne spinal manipulation to affect
diffusion of water and molecular chemicals into the disc. Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc
is well experienced with spinal manipulation to do this!
This study puts in perspective the role of Cox Technic protocols
in the treatment and prevention of Fort Wayne disc degeneration and its
resultant disc herniation. The
effects of Fort Wayne chiropractic on intervertebral disk matrix and
metabolic enzymes in rats with cervical disc degeneration and arthritis revealed
that chiropractic may better the degeneration in rats
with cervical disc degeneration and arthritis by regulating
the intervertebral disc matrix system and relevant metabolic
enzymes. (6)
