How a Chiro can pop a back and then give nutrional advice blows my mind.
My mother is a clinical dietitian and absolutely hates chiropractors for this very reason. She says the things they tell people are misleading at best and dangerous to a patients health at the worst depending on their condition.

while all that is 100% correct. In my experience, the extent of "advice" given to patients is "you need to start exercising & eat better" really doc? Thanks
People go to the doctor when they shouldn't. Doctors have to say something

Not all medical cases are as challenging as the show House. I blame people for going to the doctor instead of just knowing this.
Annual checkups are good in case they detect strange levels of white blood cells, cholesterol, etc.

They still know how organs work. And how the body digests and metabolizes different substances.

I understand that. I've kind of moved past the advocare thing. He didn't say the lady's secretary was selling it for her. Its still unethical though if her name is attached.
I have moved on to my hatred of chiropractors. I suffer from bulging discs in my back and those people prey on my kind. "Re-alignment" my a-hole. They make you worse.

If said chiropractor took a nutrition class in college he is probably more qualified to give advice on diet than most doctors.

I can start a seperate thread if you want to let some shite out. I went to a Chiro for a bulging disc at C1-2 a few years back. Chiro work and that machine that stretched my back did wonders but I walked away on the Advocare speech, even if Breesus is pimping it.

Why do you think doctors are know much about something they have not studied? I have seen diet plans and advice that doctors have given their patients and its is laughable.
