What? 
Our Doctor-monitored Accelerated Weight Loss Cleanse Program is scientifically-engineered and designed to help cleanse the systems and restore health to the body.  This patented program is on the cutting-edge of health restoration and accelerated weight loss technology. This program is NOT A DIET, rather a cleanse program, designed to give the body a fresh start as well as provide products and information to support an entirely new lifestyle; a lifestyle of optimal health and happiness!

Why?
Over time from poor nutrition, air pollution and ordinary life, our bodies become over-burdened with toxins and stress that can begin to affect our ability to function. Cleansing helps to remove these toxins (which bind themselves to fat cells in the body) and stress from the organs of the body. Cleansing supports improved body functions such as digestion, nutrient absorption, breathing and fat burning. For years, medical researchers have reported that a body overloaded with toxins and stress may pre-dispose a person to weight problems, diabetes, cancer, depressed immune function and decreased metabolism. Cleansing on a regular basis helps restore the body to a healthier state, reduce excess body weight and improve your overall health and well being. This program is NOT A DIET nor a fad, it is a scientifically proven plan for cleansing the body, accelerated weight loss and healthy living.

Who?
 The Accelerated Weight Loss Cleanse Program is designed for anyone who desires to restore and maintain a truly healthy body. People ideal for this cleanse program include anyone choosing to remove excess body weight, have increased energy, restore their body’s ability to properly absorb nutrients as well as to restore proper body function. Candidates accepted for the cleansing program will need to be goal-oriented and steadfast on achieving and living an entirely different lifestyle. 

When?
At the very least, once a year.  Most nutritionists would recommend a monthly cleanse anyway.  Our initial cleansing program is 11 days in length including 2 pre-cleanse preparation days. The Cleanse can begin on any day of the week and any time that you choose during the year. You may work and plan a normal routine during the cleanse.  In order for our office determine if you are a candidate for the cleanse and to order the products for you, it is important to set-up your initial consult with the Doctor 1-2 weeks prior to your start date.


Why Most Diets Fail…

July 4, 2009

According to reports about $5 Billion is spent each month on weight loss.  That is $60 Billion per year AND GROWING.  I think that amount would be terribly cheap if any of it actually worked.  The fact of the matter is, we are the fattest nation on earth EVER!!!  But that’s not the punch line.  We’re getting worse.  Over 50% of all US males and females are now overweight.  By the way that amount doesn’t even include the cost coming from being overweight in the first place.

Diet soda sales are the highest ever; gym memberships are the highest ever; diet plans are the most sought after ever; “Biggest Loser” and the like are highly popular shows–heck people even have such competitions in their communities or places of work.  But as a nation we just keep getting fatter and fatter and fatter.

So the question is whether we’re looking in the right areas for our solutions.  I’ve always been against calorie counting and measuring how many calories I may have burnt on the treadmill (I’m totally against treadmills, but I’ll leave that for another blog) or even gardening.  The only counter going faster than the calorie one is that of our weight and its associated costs.

Let’s talk body physiology for a bit.  Even those of you who used Cliff Notes for biology etc in school will be able to understand this too.  So let’s start by asking the right questions first, shall we?  What systems of the body actually determine our metabolism?  It is largely your thyroid and adrenal glands.  Clearly, your glands don’t function in a vacuum and must be regulated themselves.  So what controls them?  The answer is your autonomic nervous system.  This part of your nervous system largely has to do with the nervous system functioning without our knowledge or awareness.  In short, it is the automatic nervous system, as I like to call it.  Remember, it is the nervous system that is responsible for the control of all cells, systems and organs in the body.  Don’t like that definition?  Go have a word with Gray’s Anatomy, then.

So if your nervous system is not functioning properly, how can it control what it is supposed to?  Pressures on the nervous system or SUBLUXATIONS as we like to call them can lead to improper body function.  One of the most significant affects this can have on your body is its adaptability.  You see your body was amazingly designed to be highly adaptable.  Chemical, physical and emotional stresses can cause these subluxations (or pressures) on your nervous system.  This significantly reduces your body’s ability to adapt to its environment.

Now I’m not at all discounting the value of exercise or diet.  But the question I’m raising is whether our body has the adaptability to respond positively to exercise and diet.

And lastly, a discussion of scales.  What scale do we use to determine our ideal weight?  I’ll tell you what it is and why.  But first let me say it cannot be found on any website or in a book, and nor is it a chart by gender, age  or even ethnicity.  Remember, your body was born with Innate Intelligence that knows when to breathe, sleep, rest, eat and even beat your heart in a certain rhythm.  I can tell you with confidence it knows what your ideal weight should be.  If you eat, sleep, exercise properly, are disease free and above all SUBLUXATION-free, your body will tell you what its ideal weight should be.

So go and consult your chiropractor to understand all these terms–Subluxation, Adaptability, Autonomic Nervous System, Innate Intelligence and all.  Learn how your body should work and how it is working.  I guarantee it’ll set you free!

Have a pleasant, adaptable day.  Oh, and please spread the word!

Are you Anti-biotic or Pro-biotic?

SUPERBUG

SUPERBUG

In our fad-mad society, we often want to grab the next iPhone, TomTom, CK perfume and other hot items as soon as they become available.  This fast-changing society sees constant change on the horizon and, I feel strongly, is victim to this fad phenomenon.  All of values are thrown out the window when the next gadget or bling item is being sold.  We are no longer frugal, sensible, penny-wise, or even wise.  We prefer wit over wisdom.  We let others determine how we should feel as opposed to exert our phenomenal human powers to influence others positively.  That’s right, Tom Cruise, Brittany Spears, Barak Obama, the stock market, Apple Computers, GM, the weather report and many outside factors determine how we feel.

The problem is that when it comes to health, we fall into the same decaying mentality.  We look at what’s popular, without giving any thought to whether it may be beneficial to us or not.  We worry too much about what everyone else is doing to fit in.  I invite all readers here to break free from those chains of society and begin to live like you want to live–positively, happily and well!  Make decisions for the health of your family based on those feelings rather than the fear of contracting this disease or that one.  Remember mad cow diseaes, the bird flu?  Whatever happened to that.  So this year we’ve got the swine flu.  I guarantee many will even forget how to spell it next year.

What triggered this blog was something that had been bothering me since I read a couple of articles about antibacterial soap, antibacterial filters and cleaners etc.  I just thought to myself how influenced with this stuff have we become.  By overusing this stuff, we’re creating immunity in pathogenic bacteria and therefore creating superbugs.  In fact, we’re accelerating the evolution of superbugs.  I think the value of chiropractic here is to help you build you own defenses so your body becomes most adaptable to its environment.  Your body is already capable of determining its risks and warding off pathogens.  Alas what we’re doing is strengthening our enemies and weakening ourselves.  This is a dis-service to humanity.  Check this video below and consider the ’science’ behind our current lifestyles:

So folks, break the chains of fads.  Live without external influences.  Go to your chiropractor who can help you learn how to live an “INSIDE-OUT” lifestyle vs. an “OUTSIDE-IN” lifestyle.

Warm Regards,

Earache & Ear Infections

June 8, 2009

Kids & Chiropractic (Part 2)

  The most common reason for office visits to pediatricians is for an earache.  By three years of age, more than two thirds of all children will have had at least one episode of earache and about thirty percent of them will have had more than three episodes.

 That may be why that the most common reason for children under the age of five to present to a Chiropractor is for an ear infection.

 

Do children have spinal problems?  Absolutely!  But its presentation may not be so obvious due to lack of symptoms.  Studies have shown by the time a child becomes an adult, they have experienced over 5000 falls and similar traumas to their body.  The accumulation of falls can set up misalignments in the vertebral column, and as a child gets older, these misalignments will interfere with their health.  Why not fix the problem now! 

 Many a time a child will not have spinal symptoms.  But they will present with frequent colds, irritability, hyperactivity, constipation, diarrhea, allergies and a whole host of other symptoms?  Can this be a spine related problem!  How about an ear infection?  Don’t you think a misaligned bone putting pressure on the nerve can cause an interference of flow of that nerve leading to that organ not working one hundred percent?  Most healthcare professionals agree that these misalignments causing nerve interferences are called Subluxations.

You do have an option of getting children under chiropractic care so they would grow up as strong as possible by making these corrections to the Subluxations.  Chiropractic adjustments have shown to strengthen the immune system by increasing the White Blood Cell count by fifteen thousand.  Amazing!  By strengthening their immune system, you are increasing a child’s resistance to stresses in the environment.  Would you consider this a little benefit or a life changing benefit for your child?

 As a parent and as a chiropractor, I have learned that all parents want to maintain the health of their kids. But most do not know who to ask or what to ask.  We are programmed that when we become sick, to ingest medications.  Why not start with prevention and educate your children about prevention.  When your children become adults they will have learned from the best teacher in the world-you, about optimal health. Therefore, they will lead a happy and healthy life. 

 

 Yours in Health,

Migraines and Chiropractic

May 19, 2009
Migraine Relief may be closer than you think

Migraine Relief may be closer than you think

 

In my 15 years of Chiropractic service, I’ve had the good fortune of helping hundreds if not thousands with various types of headaches.  The most painful and complex cases have usually been migraine sufferers.  Amazingly, some of my most amazing “MIRACLE” cases–and many chiropractors have such stories–have been migraine patients. 

I remember in my first year in practice, a Medical Doctor brought his wife, with terrible daily migraines, in because all else had failed.  His wife was now unresponsive to 8 ADVIL she had to take early in the morning to have any chance of warding off the terrible “whopper” as she called it.  I examined her and noticed a major “subluxation” in her first vertebra of the neck, commonly called the atlas.  Upon adjusting her atlas, her headache disappeared and she was no longer sensetive to light or loud sounds.  I asked them to return to my office the next day and her headache was no more.  I explained how that subluxation may have been preventing her body from healing itself.  I released her from care in a few short weeks when I realized her adjustment was beginning to hold.  She would return periodically for wellness checkups to ensure that (or any other) problem could be contained before it got out of hand.  In a couple of months, she informed me that she was moving out of town.  I helped her search for another chiropractor who would be convenient for her.  2 years later I had the occasion to visit an out-of-town post office to purchase some stamps.  She heard my voice from the back room where she worked and rushed to the front and said with tears in her eyes, “Dr. Syed, I’m so pleased to see you again.  I just wanted to tell you that I haven’t had a single migraine since that first adjustment you gave me and now since I’ve moved to this town, I’ve been seeing my chiropractor regularly.”

This story has been repeated many times in my office since then.  As a result of seeing many migraine successes, I”ve been fortunate to have been invited as a guest speaker at may places on the topic.  The most significant of those places have been the New England Headache Center, the Norwalk Hospital and most recently the Milford Hospital. 

Just recently we had another amazing “migraine miracle” in the office when a gentleman with terrible migraines for over 15 years came in to try Chiropractic after having taken thousands of pills, several x-rays and even a number of MRI’s.  Amazingly, within a couple of weeks of starting Chiropractic care, his migraines have resolved completely. 

I find that many patients with this horrible ailment are actually suffering from a “subluxation” in the neck region.  A subluxation is simply an area in the spine that is not functioning properly.  These subluxations may retard a person’s ability to regulate or heal themselves.  So in actuality, we aren’t healing anyone–EVER!  All we do is identify if a person has subluxations and if so, where they may be.  Then we carefully restore the function of the spine in those regions and the body begins to regulate itself just as it was always meant to be.

Hmmm…come to think of it, the miracle is actually the function of the body when it is expressing full vitality and wellness in the absence of subluxations. 

Who knows, help for this nagging and chronic epidemic may be easier than you think.

Have a beautiful, healthy and well day!

Dr. Behjat H. Syed
