Bottom Line: Well before buttered coffee and MCT oil became a popular trend, Dr. Roger Sperry (a neurobiologist and Nobel award winner) had a staggering finding regarding human performance. He discovered that, 90% of stimulation and nutrition to the brain is generated by the movement of the spine!
Why it matters: Recent research uncovered even more ways that a chiropractic adjustment stimulates your brain function. Researches have measured that our brain increases its rate of metabolizing glucose. You’re already smart by staying regular with your care but now science is proving that your care might make you even smarter 🙂
Next Steps: Use your brain… what would happen if more people in your life were getting more nutrition to their brain through healthy spinal movement? Make an appointment at our office for the people you live and work with. Healthier family + Healthier co-workers = Healthier you.
