Sick, Fit People
We have all seen them in the gym, in the yoga studio, or in cycling clubs. The person who looks fit: has toned arms, shredded legs and probably has a 6-pack under their gym clothes. That person looks like a specimen of health on the outside. However, they also carry a package of tissues, a bottle of nasal spray, emergency vitamin C packets, chewable antacids, and over the counter NSAIDs in their gym bag. Why? Because they are constantly sick. Sadly, many gyms and fitness studios are filled with sick, fit people.
Look Healthy
Think of the examples of people who on the outside look healthy, but inside are sick and suffering. Patrick Swayze, James Fixx, Bob Harper and countless others—people living what most of us would consider healthy lifestyles, have suffered heart attacks, been plagued with cancer and died too young, regardless of what their bodies looked like or how they felt.
What makes these stars different than someone like “The Godfather of Fitness,” Jack LaLanne, who lived a happy, healthy life until the age of 97 years old? LaLanne understood how important his nervous system was as to a long, healthy lifestyle.
For your body to heal properly and fight infection, you must have an optimally functioning nervous system. The central nervous system, brain, and spinal cord control every function of your body. When you exercise, your nervous system coordinates the growth and efficiency of your muscles and bones to build them stronger.
Eat Healthy
When you eat a healthy diet, your nervous system coordinates the digestion and absorption of nutrients into your blood stream, building every cell in your body healthy and strong. This is essential so that these nutrients are available for better workouts and sustain your immune system to guard you from germs, bacteria, viruses and other stressors.
Optimizing your body’s nervous system with Chiropractic Lifestyle Care at the core of your healthy lifestyle so you can be fit and healthy rather than fit and sick, especially if you want to enjoy being fit over a lifetime.
Wouldn’t it be great to be able to leave the medicine chest out of your gym bag?
