Book Description
Eating your way to a healthier spine! So, you think you’ve tried all options in your crusade against scoliosis? By now, you might have gone through the entire arsenal of bracing, exercise and even surgery. Unfortunately, your curve might still come back to haunt and cause more discomfort than ever before! Before you think, scoliosis correction is all about restoring your spine’s curve; it’s time to review the deformity again! Treating scoliosis requires a comprehensive approach, one which will restore your body’s natural alignment, along with preventing the inevitable spinal degeneration that comes with age. Nature intended all mechanisms of the human body to function in unison and perfect harmony with each other. With even one of them not working in tandem, abnormalities and deformities are bound to occur. Food we eat! A wise man once said, “We are what we eat!” True to the core, it is! Our gut and digestive system form the base for a healthy body and mind. On the contrary, when our food intake comprises of food products that might not be right for our body, the results can be absolutely disastrous! Not only this, even if those food products are otherwise appropriate, they might not just suit your body. That is where individual body typing comes in! Known as metabolic typing in the specialists’ jargon, it helps you to categorize your own, individual body type into three different categories and plan your food intake accordingly. Through the metabolic typing, you will know all about… - Foods and ingredients that are best suite your own genes- Food items that otherwise might be healthy, but are not right for you- Specific food groups that might enhance or deplete your energy levels- Foods that might facilitate your specific health goals, such as weight loss or gain and muscle toning With such immense benefits of body typing in view, here comes ‘Your Scoliosis Cookbook’ – a one of its kind, never-before guide to customizing your diet and a vast collection of delicious, healthy recipes to suit your palette and treat scoliosis, all at the same time! The book brings to you the amazing and time-tested secrets of the optimal nutrition for spinal health in the form of an easy-to-follow guide. Just follow our step-by-step instructions on how to find out your own body type. Once you are done, all you need to do is to pick up the recipe to suit your taste buds and choose the ingredients according to the results of your Metabolic Type. Whether you are the carbohydrate, protein or the mixed types, there is something in there, especially for you! So, just explore, cook and feast! With painstaking research and years of practice, Dr. Lau separates fact from fiction. In this book, he busts popular myths, one by one, and explores what approach works, what alternatives a scoliosis patient has and how it is possible to create a comprehensive plan to achieve peak physical and spinal health. Inspired by the extraordinary resilience of the Aboriginal groups of Australia and native African tribes that rarely suffer from scoliosis, Dr. Lau prescribes an easy-to-follow, clinically proven program that harks back to what our bodies were originally designed for and need to survive on. This book will set you on the path to total recovery by simply following the three-step process. "Modern medicine, alone, has failed to effectively manage the condition of Scoliosis," said Dr. Lau. “The treatment program I designed combines ancient wisdom with modern research and technology, culminating in the best overall results. Today, as a practicing chiropractor and nutritionist, I am more certain than ever that scoliosis, and other disorders, can be prevented and treated effectively." Who is the Health in Your Hands Program for?

Pathogenesis of Idiopathic Scoliosis
Author: Masafumi Machida
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 4431565418
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 193
Book Description
This book provides comprehensive coverage of current topics in idiopathic scoliosis (IS). A three-dimensional deformity of the spine, the condition is characterized by lateral curvature combined with vertebral rotation. The primary lesion, however, lies in the median sagittal plane, taking the form of a lordosis. Although the clinical manifestations of scoliosis have been well documented, its cause and pathogenesis have not yet been determined. Research into what causes IS has focused on the structural elements of the spine, spinal musculature, collagenous structures, the endocrine system, the central nervous system, and genetics. Results of these studies have brought about a new perception of IS epiphenomena, but the main cause of IS remains unknown. Recently, several investigators have produced new hypotheses regarding the cause of IS using the developing techniques of genetics, biochemistry, and neurology. This book is a review of the various causative factors thus far proposed for IS and an introduction to the directions in which research is heading to determine the primary cause of IS.
