Understanding Bone Density and Its Importance

Bone density refers to the amount of mineral matter, such as calcium and phosphorus, present in your bones. It is a measure of the strength and density of your bones, which is crucial for maintaining overall bone health and preventing conditions like osteoporosis and fractures.

Having good bone density is important because it reduces the risk of bone fractures and ensures that your bones can support your body weight and perform daily activities without any issues.

As we age, our bone density naturally decreases, making it essential to take proactive steps to maintain and improve it.

Discover How a Special Fat Holds Longevity Secrets and Boosts Wellness

Posted by Dr. Karl R.O.S. Johnson, DC on Fri, Jan 05, 2024

Discover the incredible potential of fatty15 in promoting a longer, healthier life and combating inflammation. C15:0, also known as pentadecanoic acid, is a beneficial saturated fatty acid with a unique carbon atom count. It can be found in small quantities in whole dairy fat, select fish species, and various plants.

Understanding the Role of Essential Fatty Acids

Essential fatty acids are the building blocks of good health. Our bodies rely on these fats for a wide range of functions, from supporting the health of our cells to promoting optimal brain function. These essential fatty acids are so crucial that our bodies cannot produce them on their own, meaning we must obtain them through our diet.

Without sufficient amounts of essential fatty acids, our bodies may experience a host of health issues. From dry and flaky skin to poor cognitive function and weakened immune systems, the consequences of a deficiency in these essential fats can be far-reaching.

Among the latest breakthroughs in the field of nutrition is fatty15. This remarkable fatty acid, with its unique structure of 15 carbon atoms, offers a multitude of benefits for promoting longevity, wellness, and mitigating inflammation. Incorporating fatty15 into our daily routine can help ensure that we are meeting our body's needs for these essential fats.

Are Toxins in Health Foods Ruining Your health?

Posted by Dr. Karl R.O.S. Johnson, DC on Tue, Jan 24, 2023

Some healthy foods can cause harm to our bodies

I developed an interest in this topic after my spouse and several patients were plagued with stalled improvement of their health challenges. Why were they not responding and being helped with tried and true methods that worked for so many others? When a patient has less than optimal healing, and is a highly compliant patient, this drives me to search out and acquire the healing puzzle piece(s) that will help that person recover as fully as possible.  

A recent patient told me about her health being harmed by oxalates in food. Before this, I really didn't know this substance was a component of many so-called healthy foods, while also being a little known health risk. As is pretty typical, this piqued my interest and lo and behold more information on this topic streamed my way. Currently our household is on a trial period of reducing foods high in oxalates to see if some stubborn health challenges diminish. So far, I can tell you we are quite pleased with the results...even after 4 days on eating a lower oxalate diet.

Iron can damage your brain - find out how

Posted by Dr. Karl R.O.S. Johnson, DC on Fri, Jan 13, 2023

The Brain's Goldilock's Principle Your Must Learn

Too much, or too little, iron can permanently damage the brain!

NOT ENOUGH: Low iron has been linked to many health problems, including fatigue, restless legs syndrome, developmental delays, lower I.Q., decreased resistance to infections, ADHD, anxiety, depression, sleep disorders, psychotic disorders, brain fog, memory loss, hair loss, and Tourette’s.    

Thinking about getting pregnant and want your child to have a healthy brain? Your iron levels need to be in a healthy range starting at conception.  

A pregnant woman that is low in iron, or has decreased iron availability, early in her pregnancy can cause lifelong neurodevelopmental disorders like ADHD, low I.Q., developmental delays, and decreased brain maturation. The health of a child starts with the health of the mother the day they are conceived and having adequate iron stores throughout her pregnancy is an essential part of being a heathy mother. This is why work with women to ensure they are as healthy as possible, and have ideal iron levels, before, during, and pregnancy.

Can Coconut Oil Kill You?

Posted by Dr. Karl R.O.S. Johnson, DC on Tue, Dec 08, 2020

The recent headlines about coconut oil say that because it's higher in saturated fat than beef or lard, it's bad for you. “You'll drastically increase the chances of cardiovascular disease if you eat it because saturated fat raises cholesterol, which leads to heart disease and mortality.” That kind of warning comes from the American Heart Association (AHA)—a powerful organization that continues to promote the mythical direct link between saturated fat and heart disease.
