Most foods today are all dead foods or not really foods at all, as in boxed cereals, canned vegetables, soda pop, etc. The answer is 'as soon as you develop spinal nerve stress. If a person is ill, then the condition of disease, regardless of the name applied to it, is in fact an effect for which there must be a cause. The Chiropractic premise is that the cause of dis-ease is due to the Subluxation of vertebrae, which produce pressure upon the nerve trunks and thus interfere with the normal transmission of vital nerve force. The Chiropractic objective is to locate the point in the spine where nerve pressure exists, due to a Vertebral Subluxation, and, thru proper adjustment by hand, to restore the Subluxated vertebrae to its normal position, thus releasing the pressure on the nerves involved and thereby removing the cause of dis-ease in the body.
Renewed health is the natural result.
These can possibly cause serious consequences later on in life. Just as subluxations are detrimental to adults, they are to children. Their spinal chord is protected by the vertebrae, and they need to be in proper alignment. It is especially important to be sure children are subluxation free. They are in the formative years, and the body must be able to express it's full growth potential.
