STAR Chiropractic Clinic

The Case of Wellness As we move, breathe, and live each day, our joints move back and forth, aiding in everything from walking to carrying to something as simple as lifting a finger. We expect them to be fully functional, and we expect them to be functional when we need them. You could almost compare all the joints in the body to an assembly line of workers.

Are you estrogen-dominance? Read on "Thousands of man-made products contain xenoestrogens, which means they mimic estrogen and disrupt your hormone balance. There’s a long list of chemicals that mimic estrogen. Here’s the short list of the more common ones you’ll see: Parabens. Manufacturers use this well-known xenoestrogen as a preservative.... Phthalates. You’ll find phthalates in plastics and as an emulsifier and stabilizer in topical products. Benzophenones. This additive alters estrogen and testosterone production.[1] Most often, you’ll find it in sunscreens. Triclosan. Manufacturers use triclosan as an antibacterial agent. Researchers found that it measurably acts on estrogen receptors. For example, it increased the size of uteri[2] and grew breast cancer cells in rats.[3] Another rule of thumb is that if it has a strong chemical or perfume smell, there’s a good chance it’s messing with your hormones. The exception is products fragranced with essential oils, which can smell strong but won’t disrupt your hormones. It’s best to avoid products with fragrance on the ingredients list. You absorb a substantial portion of the things that come into contact with your skin, so it makes sense to be conscious about what’s in the products you use. Whether you switch out your products as you run out, swap one thing a month, or go nuclear on your shelves, you’ll need to pay attention to your personal care products to reduce your estrogen load."

So proud to be a chiropractor!!!
