The doctor may recommend a nutritional consultation and the use of vitamins, minerals, herbal therapies and dietary modifications as a valuable part of your treatment plan. These will aid the body in a variety of ways, including:
For overall health and wellness, a healthy diet, plenty of water (8 12 glasses of pure water each day), adequate sleep, rest, and exercise, are all essential. In addition, part of a healthy lifestyle should include a high-quality multiple vitamin/mineral, taken 2 3 times per day. Drs. Ezgur and DiDomenico personally use and recommend Multigenics by Metagenics, as described in Proper Daily Nutrition.
PROGRESSIVE HEALTH & WELLNESS BLOG: A BRIEF EXPLANATION OF ACUPUNCTURE : Acupuncture works by stimulating the release of endorphins to decrease pain, and speed healing. Traditional Chinese Medicine uses the theory of energy, or “qi”, pronounced “chee”, to explain how acupuncture works. Qi flows through the body via channels called meridians. If the qi flow is altered, the resulting deficiency, excess, or stagnation of qi causes bodily malfunction, illness, and inability to properly heal. Acupuncture, in which needles are inserted into specific points along these meridians, restores the proper qi flow, thereby returning the body to a state of improved health and decreased pain.
