G. E. which is an immune response in your body and this all happened within minutes of exposure to whatever allergen your body is susceptible to eczema is also known as atopic dermatitis which will include skin redness itching dryness small red bumps on the affected areas this also occurs along with other allergies and asthma it occurs most commonly in childhood but may persist also into adults allergy such is hay fever allergic reactions to bee stings dust mites certain foods are due to an immune system that over reacts to antigens known as allergens sick moved me here engines and allergens are substances that are foreign to the immune system and so your body's kicks up an immune response that goes into overdrive and sometimes over produce is the immune response and this creates an allergic reaction this wave of substances is responsible for these allergic symptoms like itching watery eyes needs %HESITATION congestion sneezing skin rashes and other symptoms asthma can also be triggered by allergens infection stress chemical toxins and even too much exercise when these triggering substances are pre then long tissues react by producing some of the same steps and says producing allergies these substances cause constriction of the bronchioles which are small tubes carrying breath in and out of the lungs thus in turn causes shortness of breath a sense of tightness in the chest and wheezing coughing and difficulty in breathing I want to share with you a success story I see patients come in with these types of issues all the time especially kids I had a child come in we'll call him Brian for privacy purposes he came in like a lot of kids he had allergies he had immuno deficiencies he we get sick colds flus all the time he had asthma related issues and his parents took him to the doctor because that's the most people do they gave an allergy medications they gave him an asthma inhaler day told on that he would have to deal with this for the rest of his life he came into the office we got him checked in the first place we checked with his brain is nervous system checked his spine for areas of subluxation so in your spine ships out of its normal alignment it'll actually interfere with the communication from the brain to the nervous system your nervous system controls your immune system when there's too much interference in the nervous system it creates a noon dysregulation so it actually a fax this immune response we talked about and we found issue specifically in the upper part of his neck which controls all of the sinuses which controls a lot of your immune system your autonomic nervous system and also things like heart rate respiration breathing digestive system chemicals of the body this is completely out of balance and that was the ultimate because of his allergies and his breathing problems and other health issues he was experiencing we got him started with corrective chiropractic care taxi we align the spine and remove that interference to the nervous system get the pressure off the nerves to the sinuses to the autonomic system to help his body heal itself and within just a couple of months of corrective care restoring the curve in his neck correcting these errors of subluxation his allergies were completely gone his asthma was completely gone we also hope this mom identify some of the allergen responses in food that he was eating help rebalance his digestive system and within six months no issues at all not getting sick anymore no allergies no asthma no medications that's why I love what it is that we do and this definitely works when you get to the because the body can absolutely heal itself the next area is immune deficiency so me and efficiency is when your immune system is overwhelmed or is weekend over time and one of the biggest issues associated with immune deficiency is cancer this year more than a million Americans in more than ten million people worldwide are expected to be diagnosed with cancer which we know now to be very preventable according to science in recent research only five to ten percent of all cancer cases can be attributed to genetics the remaining ninety to ninety five percent are based upon environment and lifestyle so that means that cancer the top causes of death responsible for one in four deaths in America can be turned around by changing your lifestyle that's pretty amazing you can change your immune system by changing your lifestyle by changing your environment because there is been efforts in billions of dollars spent on finding a cure on research yet there's been no differences in death rates for cancer that has been observed here in the United States so what are some of the key areas what we know now that what you eat and the nutrition that you take in has a huge affect on your immune system one of the biggest culprits is sugar sugar directly decreases immune function in fact one tablespoon of sugar can decrease your immune function for up to four hours toxins in foods in the forms of pesticides herbicides foods that were given antibiotics and hormones toxic late in foods that contain aluminum and mercury high fructose corn syrup genetically modified organisms full of go life a seat and other toxins well all create issues with your immune system and if eating a diet that is full of processed foods high in sugar high in these toxic chemicals you're putting a constant stress on your nervous system on your immune system you're creating an acidic environment you're creating an environment full of sugar and cancer specifically feeds off sugar bad bacteria in your gut feeds off sugar most sickness and diseases feed off sugar in fact cancer has it eight times more affinity for sugar than any other substance so if you create a toxic sick sugar filled acidic environment that's a place for cancer and other diseases can thrive so by turning around your nutrition by getting rid of sugars by getting rid of toxins by getting rid of grains and other toxic leading foods and focusing more on a plant based diet healthy fats healthy nutrition you can actually not only decrease risks of cancer but increase your immune function to your body can fight that off that's pretty awesome there's also extensive evidence suggestion that regular physical exercise may reduce the incidence of many different cancers now according to research over fifty percent of Americans live what's called a sedentary lifestyle which means they don't move at all and physical in activity has been linked to increased risk of cancer of the breast colon prostate pancreas N. milk multiple types of melanoma the increased risk of brands get breast cancer among sedentary women has been shown to do be due to lack of exercise and that creates higher levels of estradiol lower concentration of hormone binding globulin larger fat masses and higher insulin levels physical activity can also increase the risk of colon cancer most likely because of an increase and GI transit time thereby increasing the duration of contact with potential carcinogens increasing the circulating levels of insulin alter what's called prostate gland in levels what's decreases your immune function and affects your metabolism but what does all this mean it means that when you don't exercise your body can not eliminate waste and your hormones do not function properly a reduction of almost fifty percent in the incidence of colon cancer is observed for those with the highest levels of physical activity so just by getting out there and moving every day going for a walk doing some activities that you like hitting the gym breathing have your and harder can actually help boost your immune system regulate your hormones and digestive health prevent certain types of cancers Jasen avoiding toxins toxins in the form of personal care products cleaning products in your foods in the beverages that you consume and the number one most prevalent in worst toxins is medications so think about why you're on a medication anyway if you're on a medication whether it's over the counter prescribed it's likely because you're in pain so you have some type of inflammatory issue going on there because of a deficiency in any type of nutrients because of lack of movement %HESITATION over toxicity or because you have a dysregulation of the nervous system you have damage to the spine from poor posture repetitive stress sedentary lifestyle old accidents old injuries that have caused misalignment in the spine that have caused subluxation that's interfering with the nervous system and so the system designed to heal your body and adapt to stress which is your brain which is your nervous system is no longer working because there's too much interference from subluxation I now your prescribed a medication to help manage the symptoms and disease caused by a problem with your spine and nervous system creating more toxicity further weakening your immune system setting you up for cancer and other types of disease this cataclysmic affect and negative Lou pathway is why so many Americans are struggling with their health this solution is to get to the costs to remove interference to strengthen the body from the inside out not add other chemicals from the outside in creating more interference and the last type of immune disorders auto immune diseases that are becoming more and more common this includes things like how she motos thyroid problems celiac disease rheumatoid arthritis multiple sclerosis lupus type one diabetes and many more there are different causes of autoimmune disorders in general they can be caused by infections environmental toxins stress allergies sensitivities the food dust pollens but one unifying characteristic of autoimmune diseases and immune disorders is inflammation inflammation is a normal process that plays a vital role in destroying invading pathogens however in immune diseases inflammation is out of control if you have an immune disorder are you want to do everything you can to minimize the risk of an immune disorder there are things that you can do you can follow an anti inflammatory diet you can start exercising more get more water Sir eating foods high in omega three fatty acids such as salmon mackerel albacore tuna avoid calf unneeded beverages alcohol soda drink at least half your body weight in ounces every day you can't necessarily control everything but you can definitely control your diet and when you do you're likely to find yourself feeling better have more energy increased ability to focus and concentrate better and more effective at work in life in in play you can affect how much you move you can affect how you take care of your health whether you go to a doctor that wants to help build up your body from the inside out strength in your body strength in your spine your nervous system remove causes or you go to a doctor that's going to add more interference you go to a doctor that tells you your body is weak that your sick that you need a medication that you can't hill that there's nothing you can do because that's your family history or that's your genetics are you base your help on how you look or how you feel you go to doctors based upon not who's the best not who's gonna help you the most but what your insurance covers and who's on the list because we think they're gonna give you the doctor that's the cheapest and follows those medical recommendations medical recommendations that say in their guidelines that they will not do anything to prevent disease to promote health to prolong and enhance the quality of life these things are not medically necessary therefore not covered by your insurance and likely not going to be seen from your medical doctor or at the hospital no I'm not completely against medicine or doctors or hospitals it has a time it has a place in any cute medical emergency the hospital is great if you have an out of control infection that you need a medication for that's awesome thank god that exists those things can definitely save your life in any cute medical challenge but when it comes to getting healthy building up your body preventing disease and disorders a medication can't do that most doctors don't do that that's not what they do they don't look at your brain and nervous system they don't look at because their tool bag is medications drugs surgeries and that is not the pathway to health the biggest reason why we do what we do is to save people from not feeling medical system now the third leading cause of death to give them natural drug free solutions to where the body can heal itself and that's what you live chiropractic in Max living is all about so if you're looking to
