Apple Country Chiropractic Cares for Spinal Discs with Nutrition and Knowledge
What do you know about the nutrition of the discs in your spine? Your Williamson chiropractor is well acquainted with them! Not less than daily is it that your Williamson chiropractor is not treating spinal discs. The discs in the spine have a high metabolism that demands oxygen, glucose, chondroitin sulfate and minerals in order for it to escape degenerative change. Let us look at how Williamson chiropractic guided nutrition can ease and develop the health of the human disc. Its nutritional balance is delicate and quite receptive to nutrition and Williamson chiropractic treatment.
THE ROLE OF DISC DEGENERATION
The depletion of chondroitin sulfate within the intervertebral disc during Williamson degenerative disc disease results in a reduction in tissue hydration, a loss of fluid movement, cell death (also called apoptosis), a loss of nerve growth inhibition and finally, the loss of disc function. Aging sees a significant decrease in chondroitin sulfate (known as glycosaminoglycan) in the disc structure. This degeneration takes place throughout the whole disc. These changes give an appreciation of the potential impact of chondroitin sulfate on the disc biology and the growth of therapeutic approaches for disc regeneration and repair.

ANTI-INFLAMMATORY
Not only is chondroitin sulfate vital for the health of your Williamson disc and its capability to resist degeneration, but chondroitin sulfate is a slow-acting anti-inflammatory drug for taking care of osteoarthritis and low back pain. Williamson inflammation plays a role in disc health status. Chondroitin sulfate does not have the unfavorable side effects of non–steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs that can injure organs such as the liver, heart and kidneys. (2) A source of chondroitin sulfate is from human umbilical cord which is revealed to reestablish the degenerative disc cells when disc cells are placed in this umbilical fluid known as Wharton’s Jelly. Captivatingly this disc cell restorative fluid comprises chondroitin sulfate which is the chemical making up the intervertebral disc. (3) Also of curiosity is a study showing positive outcomes using vitamins B12, 1, and 6 in treating arm and leg pain due to intervertebral disc degeneration and herniation. (4) Apple Country Chiropractic offers a high-quality disc nutritional supplement that explicitly has chondroitin sulfate and a daily multivitamin, amino acid, enzyme, and herb formula containing the B vitamins to lower inflammation. Williamson chiropractic patients find this a beneficial adjunct to their Williamson chiropractic care.
SPINAL MANIPULATION PLUS NUTRITION
The value of Williamson chiropractic nutrition is further shown when joined with Williamson chiropractic spinal manipulation. The physiological effects of spinal manipulation showed that it influenced disc physiology mainly via water flow via water diffusion and molecular transport into the disc, which are important for the health of the disc. (5) Apple Country Chiropractic comprehends the joint importance of providing the nutrients of a good disc supplement and daily multivitamin with Williamson spinal manipulation to affect dispersement of water and molecular chemicals into the disc. Apple Country Chiropractic is well skilled with spinal manipulation to do this!
This study puts in perspective the role of Cox Technic protocols in the treatment and prevention of Williamson disc degeneration and its resultant disc herniation. The effects of Williamson chiropractic on intervertebral disk matrix and metabolic enzymes in rats with cervical disc degeneration and arthritis revealed that chiropractic may improve the degeneration in rats with cervical disc degeneration and arthritis by adjusting the intervertebral disc matrix system and relevant metabolic enzymes.
