i: I feel exhausted all the time.
I don’t want to take “pep”
pilliTbecauseofaddic-tion possi
bilities. What can I do?
: I have a good friend and
patient who only a year ago
at the age of 6 1 loved life but
a tremendous concern. He became
fatigued so easily that any activ
ity would leave
Him exhausted. The interesting
point with him was that he prac
ticed excel lent health habits. None
theless he got to the point where
exercise was nearly impossible.
He still climbed the steps at work
A
but would have to stop halfway up
to catch his breath before continu
ing. I persuaded him to look to
Chiropractic for increased vitality.
At first he could not see a correla
tion between his nerves and his
has
Energy level. I told him that it was
virtually one and the same. Our
nerves are the highways of energy
in the body. If the nerves are
trapped or irritated, our energy
will be drained as well. He took my
advice and now instead of stop
ping halfway, he charges up the
stairs, two steps at a time! If your
vitality is giving up at the halfway
mark, get charged up with Chiro
practic. It’s a natural!
