Stumbled across a couple articles that needed to be presented early.

The Commonwealth Fund is an organization that measures and ranks healthcare of nations around the world, and last year they found that Americans paid the most for their healthcare and fared worst in overall health.

In other words: We're paying for the cost of a Ferrari but we're getting a tricycle in return! I take that back, we're getting a broken tricycle in return.

So what's the story this year? More of the same. The only bright spot were those advocating prevention.

The structure of our healthcare system is failing us all as patients and taxpayers. The use of drugs and surgeries to aggressively treat diseases as a first option is killing us all and will bankrupt this country in the near future. Don't wait for symptoms and disease to occur! Symptoms are the last sign of a body that has been breaking down!

Take Control of Your Health

And that starts with an innate diet, regular exercise, and most importantly proper structure and function of your nervous system with Chiropractic care.

Eat well, move well, and think well

Be Well and Stay Adjusted
