Tomorrow is THE day: wings by the billion, chips by the truckload, pizza deliveries breaking records, and enough beer to float a yacht. Nutrition science calls it "America's Second Thanksgiving" for calorie consumption—except instead of turkey and gratitude, it's fried everything and fourth-quarter regret.

Let me hit you with the fun (but real) science so you can laugh at it while still winning at life:

The average fan watching or partying tomorrow will slam 2,400–6,000 calories in a few hours (that's like 3 full days' worth for some of us). Wings alone? 1–1.4 BILLION consumed nationwide—each sneaky little saucy bite packing 80–100 calories of fat + salt heaven.
Distraction is the real MVP: TV + yelling at refs + group hype = mindless eating. Studies show people chow down 30–50% more when zoned out on the game.

Those big bowls of chips and dip? Portion illusion tricks you into 56% more calories than a medium bowl. (Science hates fun, apparently.)

Sodium bomb: A single serving of game-day snacks often hits 40–100% of your daily sodium—hello temporary bloat, puffiness, and blood pressure spike. Add fried fats + sugar crashes from soda/beer, and Monday becomes "Super Sick Monday" for millions.
The brain hack: All that fat + salt + carb combo lights up your dopamine centers like a casino slot machine. No wonder "just one more wing" turns into 12.

But here's the good news, my friend: You don't have to choose between fun and feeling human on Monday. You can enjoy the game (or the halftime show) AND keep your happy.

Your 3 Super-Simple Survival Plays
1️⃣ Plate Strategy Win – Hit the spread first with veggies (carrots, celery, peppers, cukes). Fill half your plate before touching the wings/pizza. Stomach fills faster on real food → you naturally eat less junk.

2️⃣ Hydration Hero Move – Alternate every drink (beer, soda, whatever) with a full glass of water. Keeps you hydrated, slows the buzz, and cuts empty calories. Pro tip: Bring your own sparkling water so you're not stuck with warm Coke.

3️⃣ Commercial Break Hustle – Every ad break = 60-second dance party, quick squats, or marching in place. Burns a few extras, keeps blood flowing, and stops you from becoming one with the couch.

Do these three things and you’ll still cheer, laugh, and maybe even win your fantasy league—without waking up feeling like a stuffed football.

Thanks Dr. Lisa O for the tips!

A pinched nerve isn't always just painful, it creates interference in the function of that nerve and can effect all kinds of things... headache, dizziness, reflux, muscle cramps, bladder, bowel or prostate dysfunction, the lost goes on and on.

Researchers found that adjusting different parts of the spine can create different effects in the body’s “speed up” and “slow down” systems.

When the neck was adjusted, the body showed signs of shifting into a calmer, more restorative mode.

Adjustments in the mid-back tended to activate the system responsible for alertness and readiness.

Why does this matter?
Because it shows that chiropractic care can help the nervous system find better balance, whether your body needs to unwind or gear up.

In other words, adjustments don’t just help you feel better physically. They can also support the natural rhythms that help you handle stress, relax, and function at your best.

In everyday terms:
A chiropractic adjustment helped their body go from “stressed and tense” to “calmer and more in control.”

Did you know your spine and nervous system play a huge role in how your body handles stress?

A chiropractic adjustment can help you move better AND it can also help your body shift into a calmer, more balanced state. In this study, people who received an adjustment showed signs of relaxed heart activity, less discomfort, and better nervous system regulation right afterward.

One key change was improved heart rate variability, which is a marker of how well your body adapts to stress. Higher HRV = a more resilient, flexible nervous system.

In everyday terms:
A chiropractic adjustment helped their body go from “stressed and tense” to “calmer and more in control.”

Chiropractic helps your whole system function at its best.

It’s not flu season — it’s “inability to adapt” season. 🍂

This time of year, people blame germs… but the real story is the body’s ability to adapt to changes in sugar, cold, and stress. When the nervous system is clear, the body can regulate, resist, and recover the way it’s designed to.

Now is the time to remind your patients that chiropractic care supports the very system that keeps them adaptable: their nervous system.
