Hi Folks: This page is the main place where I post and share information which I truly feel is important. There is so much so-called health info on the web, but I believe most of it is either incorrect or irrelevant. So, I try to select out important, relevant and truthful articles regarding health and wellness and post them here. If you find this page helpful, please share it with your friends.

(From Dr. John) Fun with ChatGPT. I asked ChatGPT: If you were the devil and wanted to make an entire nation sick, what would you do?
Oof, that's a juicy one. Okay, playing devil’s advocate—literally—if I were the Devil and wanted to make a whole nation sick (physically, mentally, spiritually), here's how I might go about it:
Corrupt the Food Supply:

Make ultra-processed, nutrient-dead food cheap, addictive, and everywhere.

Subsidize sugar, corn syrup, and seed oils, not vegetables.

Market junk to kids early, so it becomes comfort food for life.

Destroy Sleep and Rest:

Glorify hustle culture and demonize rest.

Add screens everywhere, especially before bed.

Keep people chronically sleep-deprived and wired.

Promote Isolation and Disconnection:

Replace real relationships with digital likes.

Make community seem optional, or even burdensome.

Encourage division, suspicion, and tribalism.

Push Sedentary Lifestyles:

Design cities for cars, not people.

Make movement optional and inconvenient.

Normalize desk jobs, streaming marathons, and phone addiction.

Hijack Mental Health:

Turn self-worth into a comparison game.

Tie identity to consumption and social status.

Make people feel not enough, and then sell them temporary fixes.

Break the Family & Undermine Tradition:

Make parenting seem impossible or uncool.

Undermine trust between generations.

Encourage the idea that old wisdom is irrelevant.

Encourage Moral Numbness:

Blur the line between right and wrong.

Normalize vice as freedom.

Replace purpose with pleasure.

Drown Out Silence:

Fill every moment with noise, distraction, and stimulation.

Keep people too busy or numb to reflect, pray, or heal.

Basically, make health feel weird, truth feel relative, and dysfunction feel normal. That’d do the trick.

Want me to write it like a monologue from the Devil himself?

Call now to connect with business.

Symptoms of a herniated disc occur when the inflammatory proteins present in the disc's inner core or pressure from the disc itself affects a nearby spinal nerve.

Hi folks. Let's visit sleep and mattresses for a moment. If you have any sleep or mattress questions, put them in the comments and I will do my best to answer you. Here is a link to my webpage where I lay out my basic philosophy regarding sleep and mattresses. https://www.springbrookclinic.com/what-is-wellness/sleep-and-mattresses

Cervical degenerative disc disease is a condition where age related wear and tear of a cervical spinal disc makes it lose water and become flatter, stiffer, and less capable of absorbing stresses.

from Dr. John : Scientific research continues to build regarding Vitamin D (and Mg) deficiency and its relationship to chronic pain. https://www.grassrootshealth.net/blog/fibromyalgia-symptoms-worse-lower-levels-vitamin-d-magnesium/?utm_source=newsletter-main&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Newsletters I have observed repeated, substantial and permanent improvements in chronic pain when vitamin D levels are brought up to optimal level in the blood via supplementation with 5000iu/day. In my office we practice patient-centered/customized care. That said, I recommend vitamin D3 supplementation to nearly all of my adult patients (with a very few exceptions), along with a few other supplements. Thanks for reading.

New study shows vitamin D and magnesium deficiency were both related to an increase in fibromyalgia symptoms, most notably physical function and stiffness Key Points Studies have shown that specific nutrients, including vitamin D, magnesium, vitamin B12, and iron, can have positive effects on chroni...

(from Dr. John) Hello folks: The subject of dietary supplements is very confusing for most patients. There is so much conflicting information that it is nearly-impossible for patients to have 100% certainty re. the best course of action. That being said, after studying this subject for 30 years, to the best of my knowledge, most adults do need to be supplementing their diets in order to increase their overall health status. Over many years, I have curated a selection of high-quality, professional-grade supplements. Here is a link to this basic array of recommended supplements that I recommend for nearly any/every adult to take every day. https://www.springbrookclinic.com/online-store?details=1&catId=507&pid=5190&s=

From Dr. John- Hi folks: I have read elsewhere that today (May 7) is apparently "National Fentanyl Awareness Day". 80,000 Americans die each year from direct overdoses and millions more are struggling daily just to survive their opioid addiction. The most common reason why people first use an opioid, is for pain. If you want to learn more about how we (USA) got to this point, I recommend this highly-detailed article. It is not a happy story, but it is interesting and informative IMHO:
