A good nutritional support program starts with the intake of essential vitamins and minerals and essential fatty acids. We, at Fall Chiropractic, offer a variety of foundation nutritional formulas to address individual health needs.

You truly are what you eat...and that starts with how food and other natural substances that complement the diet affect your cells and influence your health.  In the past, the main focus was on the nutrients we might be missing.  That is still important.  However, there is a lot more to consider when planning our daily diets that just avoiding a deficiency.  Healthy eating, nutrition, and other modifiable lifestyle factors can help you reverse the disease process and improve health. 

Despite a wide variety of foods, people today generally eat more but actually get fewer nutrients.  Many common aspects of daily life can deplete the body of the nutrients it needs to function properly: eating junk food & refined carbohydrates, stress (work & family), state of ones health (illness, injury, pregnancy, etc.).  As a result things can rob you of your nutrients by causing accelerated nutrient loss, impairing the absorption of nutrients from food. 

As you can see it is rather difficult to have a healthy nutrition lifestyle as a result of the external factors that we encounter every day.  Even if we as a society ate a perfect diet, we may be deficient in certain needed nutrients to maintain or improve our overall health.  Yet, the far majority of us don't maintain the perfect food intake with all of our bodies nutrient needs. 

Our office has recommended Metagenics vitamins and supplements for many years as we strongly believe in the quality of their product and that proper nutrition is key to building a healthy foundation.  Dr.Wiggers believes their are many holistic options, that combined with traditional medical care, can optimize return to health.  From a general multivitamin to probiotics to melatonin, their are many options available to naturally treat many different conditions.  Dr.Wiggers can consult with you to determine what products may be right for you.
