Dear patient and
friend,
In the journals I
read I often come across new developments in the science of chiropractic. However, people like you never become aware
of these important ideas since the media reports so little of it.
Therefore I’ve taken
yet upon myself to keep you informed of crucial breakthroughs because I know
how important they can be to you, your family and friends. As your doctor, I believe it’s
part of my sacred trust. So for your
information and consideration, here are these unique and revolutionary
developments.
Online
influencers appear to be just as bad as television commercials when it comes to
promoting unhealthy food; and with such influencers increasingly attracting the
attention of children, even at a young age, that's a major problem. New
research reveals the extent of the challenge parents now face when it comes to
teaching their kids healthy eating habits.
After analyzing more
than 400 YouTube videos posted last year by the five most-watched kid influencers,
they discovered nearly half featured food or drinks, 90 percent of which
promoted unhealthy branded food items, such as fast food. Influencers ranged
from ages 3 to 14, and their videos were viewed collectively more than 1
billion – yes, that's billion –
times. Study findings appear in Pediatrics,
the primary research journal of the American Academy of Pediatrics.
Keep in mind that in the
vast majority of cases, these influencers don't just "happen" to be
eating certain foods or drinking certain beverages. They're eating and drinking
specific products in return for money from the companies that produce them.
It's just the latest way to attract and keep customers, all under the guise of
your child's "online friends," who tend to inspire great trust and
loyalty among their viewers. If the influencer does it, your child will do it.
If the influencer supports it, your child will support it. And
if the influencer eats and drinks it...

When I started
chiropractic care, my back hurt too bad not to try it. I was taking Excedrin and a pain patch. I was
skeptical that I could be helped. I have
never had an extensive treatment as this.
My back feels better and I say "Come to see Dr. Weber. Chiropractic
care feels great."

I started coming to
the chiropractic for lower back pain. The pain got so bad I felt that I had to
do something. I was skeptical that chiropractic could help me. It has helped my
wife and me. I tell anyone who is sick, suffering or in pain try chiropractic.
