What do you know about the nutrition of the discs in your
spine? Your Vancouver chiropractor is well
acquainted with them! Not less than daily is it
that your Vancouver chiropractor is not caring for spinal discs. The discs in the spine have a high metabolism
that needs oxygen, glucose, chondroitin sulfate and
minerals in order for it to avoid
degenerative change. Let us study how Vancouver
chiropractic guided nutrition can alleviate and improve
the health of the human disc. Its nutritional balance is delicate
and quite receptive to nutrition and Vancouver
chiropractic treatment.
THE ROLE OF DISC DEGENERATION
The depletion of chondroitin sulfate inside the
intervertebral disc during Vancouver degenerative disc disease
creates a reduction 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 experiences a significant decrease
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 expansion of therapeutic methods
for disc regeneration and repair. (1) Vancouver Spine Care Centre passes this information along to
Vancouver chiropractic disc degeneration patients.
ANTI-INFLAMMATORY
Not only is chondroitin sulfate vital for
the health of your Vancouver disc and its capability to fight
degeneration, but chondroitin sulfate is a slow-acting anti-inflammatory drug
for treating osteoarthritis and low back pain. Vancouver
inflammation influences disc health status. Chondroitin
sulfate does not have the unfavorable 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 shown to restore the degenerative disc cells when disc cells are placed
in this umbilical fluid known as Wharton’s Jelly. Captivatingly
this disc cell restorative fluid has 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) Vancouver Spine Care Centre makes available a
high-quality disc nutritional supplement that explicitly has
chondroitin sulfate and a daily multivitamin, amino acid, enzyme, and herb
formula incorporating the B vitamins to lower
inflammation. Vancouver chiropractic patients find this an advantageous addition
to their Vancouver chiropractic care.
SPINAL MANIPULATION PLUS NUTRITION
The benefit of Vancouver chiropractic nutrition
is additionally shown when joined
with Vancouver 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) Vancouver Spine Care Centre understands the joint
importance of providing the nutrients of a good disc supplement
and daily multivitamin with Vancouver spinal manipulation to influence
dispersement of water and molecular chemicals into the disc. Vancouver Spine Care Centre
is well experienced with spinal manipulation to do this!
This study puts in perspective the role of Cox Technic procedures
in the treatment and prevention of Vancouver disc degeneration and its
resultant disc herniation. The
effects of Vancouver chiropractic on intervertebral disk matrix and
metabolic enzymes in rats with cervical disc degeneration and arthritis revealed
that chiropractic may improve the degeneration in rats
with cervical disc degeneration and arthritis by controlling
the intervertebral disc matrix system and related metabolic
enzymes. (6)
