Dangerous - Compact Fluorescent Light Bulbs

If you have any of these bulbs in your home replace them immediately! The media has made it known that these bulbs are dangerous (while trying to minimize the risks) ONLY if they brake, but this is not the whole story...No surprise, right?!? These bulbs let off dangerous levels of mercury into the air (as they heat up while in use) - leading to a wide array of health conditions.

New Video!




Quick and easy neurological checks are done before, during (if necessary) and after each treatment. This ensures that children receive exactly the right amount of stimulation to the brain -- not too much and not too little! It's important that checks are done with all patients, but especially with children as they can respond quickly to light treatments.

In this video, this child should know where he is in space and time, but he misses many of the markers. After a treatment he was right on. Depending on the case, a very specific treatment may need to repeated multiple times until damaged area have been healed or until the child's nervous system can kick in our it's own.

Scoliosis - The Dangerous Truth - Free Presentation

Free Informational Meeting - Presented by Dr. Shan Hager
Wednesday, Oct. 12th from 6p-8p   

Surgery & Bracing Are not the only options!!!

Register HERE

The Facts:

* Scoliosis decreases life expectancy by 14 yrs
* Since 1991, countries outside of the U.S. have abandoned bracing due to it's ineffectiveness
* 40% of patients who undergo surgical rod placement will end up "severely handicapped"
* Scoliosis progresses throughout adulthood

Specific care protocols have been developed to IMPROVE curves and your life!

Any postural distortion tells us which way your spine shifts (like scoliosis sideways or front to back), and where the kinks are in your spinal cord, which shuts down the nerve energy to the vital organs of your body leading to disease and infirmity.

If left untreated, scoliosis has very dangerous long-term effects. If you or anyone you care about is suffering with scoliosis, please join us... it may save your life!

Note: The red line shows where the spine should be.

SUCCESS

Just one out of hundreds of success stories we wanted to share with you:

"I had gone to 8+ Medical Doctors, 2 Chiropractors, 3 Physical Therapists, 2 Massage Therapists and a TMJ Specialist. I was in and out of doctor offices searching for someone or some treatment that would permanently eliminate my problems, not just cover them up. I started receiving care at Answers! and I'm so thankful I did. Their approach to healthcare is different than anything else I had ever experienced - even from other Chiropractors. Dr. Shan took the time to sit down, one-on-one and explain in detail what was going on inside my body- I had never had any doctor do that with me before. Not only that, but he was seeing me as a whole person, not looking only at my migraines or TMJ problems or digestion problems - and treatment follow with the same consideration. Today, I no longer suffer with ANY of the problems that I had to live with before! I live pain free and am healthier now than I've ever been! Answers! brought hope back into my life - knowing that given the right treatment the body is able to heal itself naturally! ." (Female, 27)

Answers To Health is helping people reach their health goals everyday!

Info on Magnesium

Magnesium is the fourth most abundant mineral in the body and is essential to good health. Approximately 50% of total body magnesium is found in bone. The other half is found predominantly inside cells of body tissues and organs. Only 1% of magnesium is found in blood, but the body works very hard to keep blood levels of magnesium constant [1]. Magnesium is needed for more than 300 biochemical reactions in the body. It helps maintain normal muscle and nerve function, keeps heart rhythm steady, supports a healthy immune system, and keeps bones strong. Magnesium also helps regulate blood sugar levels, promotes normal blood pressure, and is known to be involved in energy metabolism and protein synthesis [2-3]. There is an increased interest in the role of magnesium in preventing and managing disorders such as hypertension, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes. Dietary magnesium is absorbed in the small intestines. Magnesium is excreted through the kidneys [1-3,4]. http://ods.od.nih.gov/factsheets/magnesium/

Having too much of this mineral in your diet could result to an upset stomach. You could experience episodes of diarrhea accompanied by stomach pains. Take note that the recommended intake for adult males is 420 mg per day. The recommended consumption for women and smaller children is lower. If you go beyond the upper limit, then you are probably taking too much magnesium. Excessive consumption which is five times the recommended upper limit could cause uncomfortable diarrhea, loose stools, and debilitating stomach aches. Some people may experience other side effects when they include too much magnesium in their diets.

Symptoms may include dizziness, nausea, and general fatigue or muscle weakness. It could also increase the toxicity levels of your body and might impede the proper functioning of some of your vital organs. Serious side effects may include tightness in the chest, breathing difficulties, and dryness and swelling of the mouth. Rashes on the skin could appear if the mineral becomes too toxic. If you experience some of these symptoms, then you need to quickly consult a doctor. You have to know immediately if you are consuming too much magnesium in order to avoid the side effects. http://www.infobarrel.com/Common_Side_Effects_of_Magnesium_Overdose

MUST READ ASAP!

http://www.preventcancer.com/documents/ACS.pdf is the cover of the 130-page document link which explains in detail why the American Cancer Society may be far more interested in accumulating cash than curing any disease. The ACS has close ties to the mammography industry, the cancer drug industry, and the pesticide industry.

It is riddled with conflict of interest.

And in fact, according to the report, the ACS has a reckless, if not criminal record on cancer prevention. Over and over again, they have promoted drugs and screening while ignoring environmental causes.

The report states, in part:

"The ACS ... [has] long continued to devote virtually exclusive priority to research on diagnosis and treatment of cancer, with indifference to prevention, other than faulty personal lifestyle, commonly known as 'blame the victim,' ... Not surprisingly, the incidence of cancer over past decades has escalated".

Better than Honey!

I came across this product which interested me as it has a lower glycemic index than honey… it is 7g sugar per tbsp vs. the 16g sugar per tbsp with honey:

http://www.coconutsecret.com/crystals2.html

This is the same company who carries the Coconut Aminos that we use instead of soy sauce.

Let us know what you think!

"Spices"

Good Afternoon! I hope you had a blessed holiday season!! Just a quick note...

I have had many questions lately related to reading food labels, and how things that are listed on the label may actually be something else,
so I have included some helpful info here.

As many of you have heard me teach, that “spices” (without them listing the ingredients in parenthesis next to the word) and “Natural Flavoring” and “Flavoring” can contain a high percentage of gluten as well as other harmful things especially MSG. That’s right MSG! A great place to start learning more about this (other than the classes we teach at Answers!) is the book, Excitotoxins: The Taste that Kills; By Russell Blaylock, M.D.


I hope this helps. Have a wonderful day!


Dr. Shan
