How Milk Protein Help Cure Blood Pressure?

October 28th, 2010
Ashish Jain asked:




Since long, researchers and medical practitioners were unaware of the several useful properties that the diary products carried with themselves. But now as new studies have come up, they have unanimously agreed upon the fact that the peptides present in the milk and diary products are one of the good alternative treatments available for blood pressure abnormalities.

The improvement in blood pressure by dairy peptides is brought in within 6-8 months of consumption. But before you recourse to this alternative treatment for hypertension, the top 3 questions in this regard are answered.

What are dairy peptides? When the milk protein “casein” is broken down, tiny dairy peptides are released. A consortium of small molecules forms peptides. To define dairy peptides, you can say they are small milk proteins or molecules made up of two or more amino acids.

How does this milk protein works in the direction of benefiting you in your blood pressure? Researches have come out with the fact that these dairy peptides act as a blocker in the pathway-action of the Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme (ACE). ACE is the key element in the formation of Angiotensin II in the body. As there is no ACE formation in the body, there occurs a reduction in the production of Angiotensin II enzyme. Now Angiotensin II is an important element responsible for the constriction of blood vessels. So, as the levels of Angiotensin II come down, the blood vessels do not constrict, thereby lowering your over all blood pressure.

Is there any caution before taking this alternative treatment? If you suffer from any type of allergies from the substances present in milk, you should refrain from taking such alternative treatment. Moreover, whatever treatment you plan to depend upon, it should be under the medical guidance of a good physician or specialist. Besides this, even pregnant women are also not allowed to undergo such a treatment.

Chiropractic and Cranial Adjusting

October 28th, 2010
Dr. S Edelson asked:




Headaches and other ailments can sometimes only be helped by Chiropractic and Cranial Adjusting. When all else fails, I always check the position of the cranial plates. The skull is a dynamic amazing structure that is not fused into a piece of armor just to protect the brain. THe plates of the skull shift ever so slightly and can also become stuck into the incorrect position. My office manger was complaining of severs headaches and terrible stomach pain that no one could find the cause for. She went to her medical doctor several times, and I had even adjusted away her subluxations numerous times without effect on her condition. One day I checked her skull to find that things were out of place. I adjusted them and her problems vanished immediately. WOW.

Neck Pain

Approximately 19% of our patients come to us with complaints of neck pain or discomfort. This pain can be caused by a variety of factors, such as an accident, injury, overuse, etc. The most common neck condition we address is whiplash.

The efficacy of chiropractic for neck pain has been well documented in numerous studies conducted in the United States, Canada, Wales, and the Netherlands. In a joint U.S./Canadian study published in 1996, researchers from UCLA, the West LA Veterans Affairs Medical Center, and two chiropractic colleges found that for some patients with sub-acute or chronic neck pain, spinal adjustment proved to be a more effective treatment than mobilization or physical therapy.

In a study conducted by the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College in Toronto in 1997, researchers found spinal adjustments to improve neck mobility and decrease neck pain. An additional Canadian investigation published in 1997 by the University of Calgary found spinal adjustments to improve neck mobility and decrease neck pain in patients having back and/or neck complaints.

General practitioners in private practice at the Welsh National School of Medicine conducted a study of the efficacy of spinal adjustment in alleviating neck and shoulder pain. The results, published in 1983, indicated that pain and discomfort improved significantly after adjustment, as well as range of motion and flexibility of the affected areas.

A 1992 Netherlands study conducted by doctors of medicine and other professionals investigated different methods of treatment for patients with chronic back and neck pain. After 12 weeks of care, manual therapy (which consisted of adjustment and mobilization of the spine) had showed a “faster and larger improvement in physical functioning” relative to the other types of treatment such as massage, exercises, and physical therapy.

Head Pain

Headaches, both tension and migraine, are the chief complaint for approximately 13% of our patients. Before you reach for your pain-reliever of choice the next time a headache or migraine sneaks up on you, consider the following information on the efficacy of chiropractic care for head pain.

In a 1995 study conducted in Minnesota, the effectiveness of spinal adjustment relative to the administration of an antidepressant drug (amitriptyline) for patients with chronic tension-type headaches was investigated. The researchers included doctors of chiropractic, a doctor of medicine, and another professionals from Northwestern College of Chiropractic and the Pain Assessment and Rehabilitation Center, Ltd. They determined that, after four weeks of treatment, patients receiving spinal adjustment therapy experienced a continued lack of symptoms, whereas patients taking the medication returned to original, baseline conditions.

Cranial adjusting has been around for a while, so my technique is just a new slant on an old method – it does work!

Left Shoulder Pain – Get Rid of This Pain Today

October 28th, 2010
Brian J asked:




When it comes to left shoulder pain, consider consulting a doctor first. If one can find a cardiologist, it is much better. Pain in the left shoulder may be just a referred pain from an ongoing heart attack. So it is very important to first have routine heart check-up and laboratory tests done to be cleared from life-threatening heart problems. And then, after being cleared, proceed to this list of managements to get rid of the pain.

Remember RICE. Not the grain that you eat, but the acronym R.I.C.E., which stands for Rest, Ice, Compress, and Exercise. RICE can provide ease from left shoulder pain. Make sure to “rest” your body. Any body part which is constantly used will eventually tire-out. “Ice” massage can also be helpful by providing an anti-inflammatory effect. Do this by applying ice over the area intermittently for 20-30 minutes at least three times a day. Warm “compress” can also alleviate the pain by making the blood vessels and muscle fibers relax, avoiding the painful tight feeling. Exercises, specifically passive range-of-motion exercises, can also contribute a lot in lessening the pain.

Moreover, slings also help in reducing left shoulder pain. These aids will provide stability to the left shoulder area allowing it to rest and rejuvenate for a certain period. Consider your usual body positions too. While sleeping, maintain a neutral position with body lying supine and arms on the side. Don’t sleep on the left side as it will compress the vessels and nerves in the region making it sore. It will also be helpful to try elevating the left arm once in a while to make the blood return to the heart and stop pooling in the left arm.

Furthermore, there are alternative therapies that may also reduce pain in the left shoulder. Include in the list some yoga poses isolated to the left shoulder region. Also, both acupuncture and acupressure may also alleviate through focused treatment on the affected region.

If the pain still persists, consider calling in the professionals. Hire a therapist or a chiropractor that can provide left shoulder exercises. There are also therapists nowadays who carry with them some portable ultrasound devices that help in relieving left shoulder pain.

One can also consult a physician who can provide medications to help ease the pain. Medications include non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, steroids in oral forms and injections, muscle relaxants, among others. There are also new studies that found out that Botox injections, which may provide muscle-relaxing effects, provide great degree of pain relief.

However, if left shoulder pain becomes too chronic, unbearable and debilitating, try talking to a surgeon or an orthopedic specialist. They may diagnose the primary cause of the pain which may either be a disease or a pathologic process. In this case, surgery to treat the underlying condition may be needed to get rid of the pain.

Health is no joke. And pain is no laughing matter. Consider taking time to manage the pain and discover what treatment is best for it. Remember it’s better to start today, than regret tomorrow.
