The body is one of those things in life that needs to be regularly maintained. Your body needs regular and frequent water intake to remove the dangerous toxins that our body takes in from the air you breathe and the food you eat. Water also cushions your joints, carries oxygen and nutrients into all your cells, regulates your body temperature and keeps your metabolism working properly. Your body also needs regular food intake not just for the nutrients, but to for regular cleansing of the intestinal tract. This is why we will never be able to be like the cartoon “The Jetsons” and just take a pill to get all of our food. Your teeth need to be regularly brushed and checked. It is not luck to get to your 80’s and still have all of your own teeth. Your spine needs to be regularly maintained as well because of the things we do every day; lifting wrong, sitting, driving, falls, accidents, sports impacts, childhood injuries, birth process, etc… All of these things over a lifetime can cause your spine to shift out of alignment and affect your health. Just like the tires on your car, if they are misaligned they wear out much faster. Your spine is no different; if there is misalignment it wears out causing osteoarthritis and degenerative disc disease. With your car you can put new tires on, however you cannot replace your spine.
