Don’t You Love To Get Sick!

America is sicker than ever and a majority of us choose to live in denial.  We were not born into this world with a destiny leading to sickness.  What kind of messed up world would this be if that was the truth?  The reality is most people believe all of this sickness is normal so we unfortunately do live in a pretty messed up world right now.  Seriously, who doesn’t like to get sick these days?  We have such great drugs…why bother trying to stay healthy in the first place?

Most Common Excuses

  • I don’t have time
  • I don’t have the money
  • I would just rather live with it
  • I take a baby aspirin already

It is time to put these excuses behind you.  If you don’t give time for your health now it surely will not give you time in the future.  I know there are a lot of gamblers out there so if you choose to gamble with your health more power to you.  Did you know the most common person that seeks chiropractic care is a middle aged person with a high IQ?  Hmmmm…I wonder why?  It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out the way most Americans approach their health is not working.

Some of the most common sicknesses people deal with on a daily basis.

  • Asthma
  • Allergies
  • Pain
  • Anxiety and Depression
  • Headaches

Most Common Treatments and Side effects

Sign me up!  I can’t believe I am missing out on all the health and fun!  All of this information was taken from WebMD and are real facts and statistics.  These are only a few of the side effects for the medications listed.  I would have put them all but unfortunately ran out of room.
