Studies have recently shown that the main control of blood sugar levels actually comes from the brain, and not just the pancreas. Even more intriguing, it seems that the skeletal system also plays a role with sugar metabolism and energy balance. With this strong neurological and skeletal influence, it goes to show that chiropractic care can possibly help your body regulate blood sugar levels more appropriately. While we do not treat conditions such as diabetes, I have often heard many patients who monitor their blood sugar, tell me their sugar levels seems to be more optimal with chiropractic care. One case study published in the Journal of Vertebral Subluxation Research, found that "the patient's glucose blood and urine levels had normalized and remained stable" after a month of chiropractic care. So it seems that along with proper nutrition, regular exercise, and sufficient sleep, chiropractic may also help keep you get away from the highs and lows of the sugar roller coaster.- by Dr SJ NANA, DrNana.co.za
