We learn in basic science class that everything in the world goes toward breaking down. Think about your car abandoned in a field or even parked in the garage and not moved at all for one year. The tires begin to show signs of rot and loose air and get a flat side. The working parts all begin to deteriorate. Your house would be about the same. A house that is not in use by anyone breaks down and eventually disappears. I was looking at a website for a book called "the world without us". It goes through in great detail, the process of the earth reclaiming itself if it was suddenly and completely unpopulated by humans.

The first effect would be the breaking down of all the things we have built and are familiar with in day to day life. The illustrations show the action of big bugs and small bugs like fungi and bacteria that nature enlists to reduce and return all things to a state of future usefulness.

We are often given an explanation of disease and degenerative conditions as being part of the aging process. This is a rather euphemistic way of saying you are breaking down faster than you are rebuilding. The problem with ending the explanation here is that the whole point of breaking down becomes absolutely pointless.

In the natural world, bugs and other processes break down everything for a reason. The reason is that it is an essential part of the cycle of rebuilding. The key is that the breaking down part of the effort doesn't overtake and overwhelm the rebuilding part.

Your body is part of the natural world and has the same processes built in to it. What is so often stated as a final judgement--"you're getting old"--is a poor understanding of the beginning of the life cycle. Having raw materials available to rebuild is foundational to new life.

Degeneration of human tissue is an essential part of regeneration of fresh life. Your body is constantly breaking down. It is also constantly building up and creating replacement parts out of the raw materials. The next stage of life is only as good as the raw materials available to rebuild with.

To build genuine replacement parts, you have to use the best materials possible to start with. This is the real problem with the typical explanation of aging. We use bad raw materials, products we falsely label as food, and expect to rebuild our body each day with something that can't be broken down into useful raw materials. This process goes on for years and decades and we blame the years and decades.

Don't let it happen to you. You are designed to regenerate at a faster rate than you degenerate for your life time. If this isn't working out for you correctly, come in and see how to reverse the old age trend and rebuild health.

Electrical brilliance

If the light switch in your bedroom isn't working, you do what every smart person does--you flick the switch about a 1,000 times to see if that will help. It never does, so the next logical step is to call out, "Hey, the light isn't working," and, if anyone hears this, they will come to where you are and flick the switch about three times to verify that this is correct information.

Once everyone is satisfied, someone heads to the main electrical box to see if the problem is there. Often it is a safety feature of the breaker and when it is reset, the light in the bedroom comes on and everything works again.

This is a good system. There are local controls for electricity in each room and there is a master control in one place for every room. It is a good illustration of how the electrical system in your body works also.

We have local nerve controls that exit at each of the vertebra in the spine. There are symptoms that the control may not be working very well. Muscle pain or weakness and tingling can indicate this. And like the need to flick a switch about a thousand times, we often repeat a motion that confirms, "yes, this nerve is not doing what it is supposed to do because this doesn't feel right."

Like a well organized electrical system in your house, your body also has a well organized electrical system with not only a local control, but also a master control area for muscles and general body alignment. This central point is accessed best at one very special point in the body, the first spinal bone or atlas.

The atlas is positioned exactly where the brain stem and the spinal cord actually connect and so much of the body is affected when it is mal-positioned. Like a breaker that is causing an interference in a good electrical system, the atlas can cause an interference in an otherwise good working nervous system.

The check for atlas misalignment is simple, the adjustment is easy and does not cause a popping or need a twist, and the results can "turn on the lights" just like resetting a breaker to the proper position. Find out if you need to have your atlas adjusted to help clear pain away.

The WHY and HOW

Inquisitive children ask WHY. Inquisitive adults ask HOW. The truthfullness of the answer to WHY leads to an effective HOW. For example, a child asks why we eat, why we poop, why the body works the way it does. If the answer to the WHY is true, then the question HOW can I best feed my body will be most effective and the outcome will be what you want it to be.

In our work we use the WHY as a standard of truth to the HOW. When you are trying to learn HOW to feed your body correctly it is most important to know WHY your body works the way it does. WHY your body works the way it does is a standard of truth. Our patients learn the WHY first. Then HOW should I feed it to best care for it becomes so much easier. A person who knows WHY is less likely to fall prey to wrong information about HOW to feed the body.

There has been so much bad information in the last 50 years regarding what to eat. We are seeing dire consequences of these marketed chemical products erroneously called food. People are sick and getting sicker simply because they didn't know what the body does with real food.

When you know WHY you need real food, you can learn HOW to best to feed your body. We give you the tools to be able to see past phony foods and gimmicks to the real right and need you have to be fed. You can know enough not to be fooled. Dr. Stacey Lang
