What do you know about the nutrition of the discs in your
spine? Your Manahawkin chiropractor knows a lot about them! Not a day goes by that your Manahawkin chiropractor is not treating spinal discs. The discs in the spine have a high metabolism
that demands oxygen, glucose, chondroitin sulfate and
minerals in order for it to escape
degenerative change. Let us look at how Manahawkin
chiropractic guided nutrition can alleviate and improve
the health of the human disc. Its nutritional balance is delicate
and quite responsive to nutrition and Manahawkin
chiropractic treatment.
HOW DISC DEGENERATION PLAYS A ROLE
The depletion of chondroitin sulfate within the
intervertebral disc during Manahawkin degenerative disc disease
results in a decrease in tissue hydration, a loss
of fluid movement, cell death (also called apoptosis), a loss
of nerve growth inhibition and ultimately, the loss
of disc function. Aging sees a significant drop
in chondroitin sulfate (called glycosaminoglycan) in the disc
structure. This degeneration takes place throughout the whole
disc. These changes give an appreciation of the potential
influence of chondroitin sulfate on the disc biology and
the development of therapeutic methods
for disc regeneration and repair. (1) Manahawkin Chiropractic Center takes note
of this to help
Manahawkin chiropractic disc degeneration patients.
ANTI-INFLAMMATORY
Not only is chondroitin sulfate important for
the health of your Manahawkin disc and its ability to fight
degeneration, but chondroitin sulfate is a slow-acting anti-inflammatory drug
for doctoring osteoarthritis and low back pain. Manahawkin
inflammation influences disc health status. Chondroitin
sulfate doesn’t have the adverse side effects
of non–steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs that can harm
organs such as the liver, heart and kidneys. (2) A source of chondroitin
sulfate is from human umbilical cord which is shown to reestablish 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 interest 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) Manahawkin Chiropractic Center makes available a
high-quality disc nutritional supplement that specifically has
chondroitin sulfate and a daily multivitamin, amino acid, enzyme, and herb
formula containing the B vitamins to lower
inflammation. Manahawkin chiropractic patients find this an advantageous adjunct
to their Manahawkin chiropractic care.
SPINAL MANIPULATION PLUS NUTRITION
The value of Manahawkin chiropractic nutrition
is further shown when joined
with Manahawkin chiropractic spinal manipulation. The physiological
effects of spinal manipulation displayed that it influenced
disc physiology mainly through water flow via
water diffusion and molecular transport into the disc, which are important for
the health of the disc. (5) Manahawkin Chiropractic Center comprehends the joint
importance of providing the nutrients of a good disc supplement
and daily multivitamin with Manahawkin spinal manipulation to affect
dispersement of water and molecular chemicals into the disc. Manahawkin Chiropractic Center
is well experienced with spinal manipulation to do this!
This study highlights the role of Cox Technic procedures
in the treatment and prevention of Manahawkin disc degeneration and its
subsequent disc herniation in good perspective. The
effects of Manahawkin chiropractic on intervertebral disk matrix and
metabolic enzymes in rats with cervical disc degeneration and arthritis showed
that chiropractic may improve the degeneration in rats
with cervical disc degeneration and arthritis by adjusting
the intervertebral disc matrix system and relevant metabolic
enzymes. (6)
