THIS!!! Please remove the cancer items. Please!

This October, let’s stand with brands that truly support the fight against breast cancer by NOT having carcinogens in their products, instead of those who .

🎀Don’t be fooled by pink ribbons slapped on products just to boost sales, while still selling the very chemicals that contribute to cancer.

❌Avoid toxins known to cause breast cancer in ultra processed foods and beauty products such as

-Parabens
-Fragrance
-Phthalates
-BHT
-BHA
-Toluene
-Triclosan
-Artificial dyes

✅Stick to

-Organic foods
-Personal care products with natural ingredients you can actually pronounce

Take care of your gut!

Colon cancer is increasing among people under 55, and new research points to a surprising culprit: a bacterial toxin called colibactin that damages DNA. Scientists a**lyzing nearly 1,000 cancer genomes worldwide found that colibactin-related mutations are 3.3 times more common in patients under 40 than in those over 70. Alarmingly, these mutations often appear within the first decade of life, suggesting that some children may unknowingly begin a path toward cancer decades before symptoms arise.
Colibactin is produced by certain E. coli strains living in the gut. Experts believe modern lifestyle factors—such as antibiotics, processed foods, reduced breastfeeding, C-sections, and group childcare—may help these harmful bacteria settle in early. While exact causes are still being studied, this discovery is a major breakthrough in understanding why colon cancer is rising in younger populations.
Researchers are now developing stool tests to detect these DNA mutations early and exploring probiotics to remove colibactin-producing bacteria from the gut. Focusing on childhood gut health could transform cancer prevention strategies and provide a chance to intervene long before traditional screening begins.
This finding highlights the critical connection between gut microbiome and long-term health, showing that maintaining a healthy gut from an early age may be a key step in preventing serious diseases like colon cancer.

Functional Medicine is NOT just throwing some supplements to the wind. It is finding the ROOT CAUSE of the problem. We work so much on stress and distraction that we may think we have one problem-but it is more like 4-5 issues. I have seen people who didn't realize that their stomachs were bloated, they are gassy in the evening hours, and they have brain fog. Which is why we do functional medicine consultations. Let's chat!

It is the end of September which I will be discussing more about CHIROPRACTIC!!! I love October because it is Chiropractic Awareness Month. Let's begin teaching more about the benefits of Chiropractic and how it helps the quality of life.

The American Chiropractic Association (ACA) and doctors of chiropractic nationwide will celebrate National Chiropractic Health Month this October with the theme “Get Started with Chiropractic.” The campaign will raise awareness of how taking a non-drug approach to pain initially may help you to avoid riskier treatments later. Look for more information about chiropractic and musculoskeletal health at HandsDownBetter.org the conversation on social media this October using .

I always talk about eating healthy well, here is your chance. I see two types of salad with a strawberry vinaigrette dressing or balsamic vinegar. Grapes for a snack. Eat to live.

Why eat in season?

Because nature knows what it’s doing
When you choose seasonal produce, you’re getting:
More nutrients – Foods grown and picked in their natural season are fresher and more nutrient-dense.

Lower cost – Abundance = affordability. Seasonal fruits + veggies are often cheaper because they don’t need long storage or shipping.

Better flavor – Ever noticed how a tomato in September tastes nothing like one in February? That’s the power of in-season eating.

Eating with the seasons isn’t about perfection, it’s about reconnecting to what your body actually needs right now. In fall, nature gives us grounding root veggies and cozy squashes. In summer, hydrating fruits and crisp greens. It’s built-in nourishment.

👉 Save this as a reminder next time you’re grocery shopping!

A few days ago, I saw a case that I have never seen before in all my 15 years of being a chiropractor. I saw the MRI report of the head of a person who had Empty Sella Syndrome or ESS. I once again found another contraindication of a cervical adjustment.
( SN: It appears that they are missing a pituitary gland in their head. The Pituitary Gland is one of the master stations for precursor hormones that control the adrenals, s*x glands, and thyroid.) One of the biggest symptoms- headaches.

Empty sella syndrome is when your pituitary gland flattens due to issues with the sella turcica, a bony structure that surrounds your pituitary.

I love how this is set up. Yes, these are part of an a**lysis for care.

Not sure which antibody test your patient needs?
Different symptoms can point to different immune responses. By matching symptoms to the right antibody, you’ll know which test provides the clearest insight.

Additionally, understanding the distinctions between whether a reaction is inflammatory, protective, or tolerance-building is key to selecting the right test for your patient:

🔵 Immunoglobulin G1-3 or IgG
IgG is an antibody that can activate the pro-inflammatory complement system (complement cascade) associated with chronic inflammatory conditions. High levels of IgG (class II or higher) overload receptors and drive the inflammatory reaction while low levels of IgG (class 0/I) indicate tolerance.

IgG food sensitivity testing is the most commonly performed food sensitivity testing and foods that are only high in IgG can often be safely re-introduced after a period of abstinence.

🔴 Immunoglobulin G4 or IgG4
IgG4 is an antibody which in most people does not activate the complement system, but instead is a “blocking antibody” for IgE. The presence of IgG4 is protective, not inflammatory, as IgG4/IgE binding tends to decrease IgE hypersensitivity (true allergy). If IgG4 is high, testing for IgE reactivity is advised and it may be best to remove the food from the diet permanently.

Independent increases in IgG4 only can be associated with certain autoimmune conditions such as eosinophilic esophagitis.

🟢 Immunoglobulin A or IgA
IgA is an antibody that can activate the pro-inflammatory complement system. Unlike Secretory IgA (sIgA) in stool, which is two IgA molecules bound together and secreted into the gut, serum IgA levels are associated with allergies and asthma. A Serum IgA reaction to food triggers can indicate foods that are irritating the lining of the gut.

Happy Labor Day! Because I can not stay away from the computer to look up more things, here is something regarding vegetarianism and veganism. They are less likely to get cancer. And yes, I have an article from Medscape. Enjoy!

Even in some less common cancers, vegetarians had a reduced risk, but diet remains just one element of modifiable lifestyle factors affecting cancer risk, finds a new study.

This week, I found out my younger cousin passed away from colon cancer. He was 34 years old and died within 2 days of discovering the diagnosis. He was checked out a week prior and there was no discovery of cancer. By the time he went to the hospital for diarrhea, it had already very aggressively spread throughout his body with the last tumor growth killing him within his heart.

I have a patient that just got out of surgery as he also had colon cancer and was a young person. If you think there has been an increase in cancer, you are absolutely correct! Studies are showing that there is no singular reason why and I want to add the instances of COVID and numerous viral infections and increased stresses. I will post more about this and what to do about it.

Within the avenue of Functional Medicine, (Chiropractic Internists and Naturopaths) when looking at lab work- we are looking at the "normals" as well. Chiropractic Internists, Functional Medicine Practitioners, and Naturopaths have a "optimal" range which is different from the lab range or standard range. Why is this? To address the problem before it gets worse.

*disclaimer: there will be blood.*
I am posting this because I am told I do not share my health tips. A few days before my moon cycle I will stock up on selected foods. Beets are one of them. I put them in smoothies but in recent times, I have been eating them raw or cooked. (Please check Instagram for my pan fried golden beets.) Beets are great for the gut health, liver, blood, and one of the infamous hormone regulator foods that I love. You honestly can't go wrong with beets.

Guess what? Parasite activity is enhanced by the full moon.
If you have:
GI upset
Bloating
Gas
diarrhea
abdominal pains
a**l itching
increased hunger
inability to eat foods you normally enjoy
itching on the skin
bodily acne
sleep disturbances
mood swings

and everything else is normal? ( lab work is normal. Doctor's can't figure it out.) You may have parasites in the gut. Specific testing can help along with a plan of detoxification, supplementation, herbals, and diet can clear up the gut and you can be you again.
