    Diarrhea Lettuce & Wildfire Smoke Update For Your health

    “Diarrhea lettuce” is all over social media—but what is actually happening?A major Cyclospora outbreak linked to contaminated iceberg lettuce has caused nearly 2,000 reported illnesses, including persistent watery or “explosive” diarrhea. At the same time, wildfire smoke and poor air quality are increasing the toxic load placed on our lungs, immune systems and bodies.Does anybody else feel like we can’t breathe the air—and now we can’t even eat a damn salad?In this episode, we’re separating facts from fear and talking about how to reduce the exposures we can, nourish the systems that protect us and build a body that adapts.We’re covering:What “diarrhea lettuce” actually meansThe latest Cyclospora outbreak and lettuce recall informationCyclospora symptoms—including persistent or recurring watery diarrheaWhy routine stool testing may not automatically test for CyclosporaWhether washing lettuce can remove CyclosporaWhy recalled produce should never be washed and eatenWhether locally grown produce is saferWhat wildfire smoke and PM2.5 can do inside the bodyHow to reduce smoke exposure when air quality is poorFoods that support the gut, liver, immune system and antioxidant defensesWhy broccoli sprouts and other cruciferous vegetables are rich in sulforaphaneWhere vitamin C, NAC, glutathione, omega-3s, magnesium and electrolytes may fitHow a healthier microbiome and well-nourished body may provide more resources to respond, recover and adaptBut consistently nourishing your gut, intestinal barrier, liver and immune system may help your body approach an exposure with a stronger foundation. That does not make contaminated food safe or guarantee that you won’t get sick—it means your body may have more of the resources it needs to respond and recover.At the time of recording, the Cyclospora outbreak had been associated with:1,947 reported illnesses98 hospitalizationsNine states, including MichiganNo reported deathsThe goal isn’t to become afraid of lettuce, fresh produce or the air outside.Check the AQI. Filter your indoor air. Avoid recalled food. Wash your produce. Eat colorful plants. Include cruciferous vegetables. Get enough protein and fiber. Support your microbiome. Grow what you can, know your farmer and buy local when you can.Reduce what you can. Support what you can. Strengthen the foundation.

    Carpal Tunnel Get Relief Without Surgery

    Carpal tunnel syndrome is usually treated like a wrist problem. Brace the wrist. Inject the wrist. Operate on the wrist. But the median nerve does not begin at the wrist.It starts in the neck and travels through the shoulder, arm, elbow, forearm, wrist, and into the hand. That means numbness, tingling, burning, weakness, or pain in the hand may involve more than one area along the nerve pathway. This is where the idea of a “double crush” comes in. A nerve may be irritated higher up near the neck or shoulder while also being compressed at the wrist. If only the wrist is treated, part of the problem may still be there.We also break down what carpal tunnel surgery actually does. The surgeon cuts the transverse carpal ligament—the ligament that forms the roof of the carpal tunnel—to create more space for the median nerve.Sometimes surgery is necessary, especially when there is severe nerve damage, muscle wasting, constant numbness, or progressive weakness.But before permanently altering the structure of the wrist, shouldn’t someone evaluate the entire path of the nerve?In this episode, we discuss:• What carpal tunnel syndrome really is• How double crush syndrome may contribute• What happens during carpal tunnel surgery• Why symptoms may continue or return• How the neck, shoulder, elbow, forearm, and wrist can all play a role• Why conservative chiropractic care may be worth exploring before surgeryThe wrist may be where the symptoms end, but it may not be where the problem begins.Sign up for our newsletter: https://lp.constantcontactpages.com/sl/AwGmSeQ/ChiropracticIsSexyCONNECT w Dr. Ruffin!https://drruffin.com/https://www.instagram.com/drpaularuffin/https://www.facebook.com/drpaularuffinCONNECT w Dr Peabody:https://www.cafeoflifefenton.com/meet-the-doctors/ https://www.instagram.com/drericapeabody/https://www.facebook.com/erica.peabodyDisclaimer: The contents of this video are for informational purposes only and are not intended to be medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment, nor to replace medical care.

    “Once you go to a chiropractor, you have to go forever.”

    You’ve heard the myth. The truth? Chiropractic care is always your choice. But if regular care helps you feel better, move better, and have fewer days limited by back pain, why would that be a bad thing?A year-long study of 328 adults with recurring low-back pain found that people receiving scheduled maintenance care had nearly two fewer weeks of bothersome pain, with fewer than two additional visits over the entire year.https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0203029&utm_source=chatgpt.comThis week on Chiropractic is Se*y, we’re breaking down the “chiropractic forever” myth, what maintenance care really means, and why supporting your progress may be smarter than waiting until the pain returns.Sign up for our newsletter: https://lp.constantcontactpages.com/sl/AwGmSeQ/ChiropracticIsSexyCONNECT w Dr. Ruffin!https://drruffin.com/https://www.instagram.com/drpaularuffin/https://www.facebook.com/drpaularuffinCONNECT w Dr Peabody:https://www.cafeoflifefenton.com/meet-the-doctors/ https://www.instagram.com/drericapeabody/https://www.facebook.com/erica.peabodyDisclaimer: The contents of this video are for informational purposes only and are not intended to be medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment, nor to replace medical care.
